Proving the old adage that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, the Merry Fellows announced today the acquisition of 33-year old LF Celilthor Earara from the Chiba City Neuromancers in exchange for 38-year old LF Srunk Manthrottler. “This isn’t the deal of the century,” acknowledged the Merry Fellows, “but we think it will improve the direction of both teams.”
Old Forest will retain a portion of Manthrottler’s remaining contract.
This season, Manthrottler has hit at a .275 clip and produced 5 runs batted in, 4 home runs and 7 runs.
