Unrest in Bucklebury

BUCKLEBURY - "Wednesday, April 27th, 2016: Tookes Wants Out of Bucklebury?
It is unknown at this time if there is any truth to the rumor that Bucklebury's Robert Tookes has asked his team for a trade. Insiders indicate the reliever may not be happy with the club management. So far, the team's owners have refused to comment."

Apparently Tookes has been speaking to all the wrong people about his displeasure at the club.

"xade really has his finger well off the pulse" was a statement bandied around by serveral Fairies in the club room.

And it seems, all the anger is coming from the overstuffed Pitching. Robert Tookes, Solonor Solis, Kar Silverskull have all come out and claimed they are angry. This anger hasn't been helped by xade's seemingly off-beat attitude to the situation

"What? The grumpy old men division is angry with me? ooohhh, ah... I'm scared... what are they going to do? get me with their skeleton power?"

However, this attitude seems to be spreading throughout the pitching corp with
Vrsikor Stonemasher, Lerin Iceywater, Bifur Snowlegs, Elanor Bridger, Foimli Axefist all expressing a growing unhappiness to be pitching for the Fairies. xade is apparently at his wits end as to what to do with these pitchers.

"Well, if you ask me, they should be taking a long hard look at themselves. With the exception of Iceywater, they are all currently 5+ ERA pitchers. Coupling that with our 2-10 one run record, I do solely blame these pitchers for our sub- .500 standing."

So what will happen in the Bucklebury camp? Will xade manage to keep a lid on his pitching crisis? or will there be a mutiny in the club?

Only time will tell...
