Notice

The most Honorable Melvin O’ Toole, in keeping with the highest diplomatic standards and sensitive protocol will not be returning phone calls (or compliments) until at least Cinco de Mayo as he will be indisposed, quite pleasantly, in warmer more exotic climes where the sport of baseball is still in the infant stages.

During January and February the former utility infielder and hit-by-pitch specialist will be fully occupied in his duties as talent scout for the Colorado Rockies in Central Laos. The team is reportedly looking for relief pitching. Sorry for any inconvenience. One can easily email Toole and should expect a quick and capable retort.

(Editor’s note: If you happen to know any exceptional Laotian relief pitchers (unlikely but who knows) please contact this website immediately. Failure to do so could be considered high treason from Chicago to Cleveland and from Los Angeles to Boston.)
