Fett Changes Approach

Boba Fett decided that Las Vegas will try to win games with defense instead of a lineup of designated hitters. Jeff LaForest has been one of the team's best hitters playing left field, will see more time as the designated hitter or playing first base. Kirk Ennis, Ron Moon, Alex Young, and Mickey Tinsley all have speed and will get most of the outfield playing time. With Alvaro Samuel remaining at first base, this leaves little time for Moose Stinson, Gene Traxler, and Jerry Tugwell. All could become trade bait, although the latter two are on the disabled list. Miguel Delgado, who does not hit or field well, has been sent to the minors.

Joe Callahan, Charlie Harrell, and Darin Makowsky endorsed the plan, and have won the last three games for Las Vegas in a series against Baltimore. Las Vegas has a 42-52 record, last place in the west.
