Subject: Status of Frank Shannon
Dear Sir,
Frank Shannon isn't hitting the ball at all at AA Canton-Akron Indians!
He has an AVG of .185, so a demotion is
the right choice. He shouldn't be emberassed any more.

Regards,
Scouting Director



Date: Monday, 5/1/1897
Subject: Progress of Dan Potts
Dear Sir,
Dan Potts has nothing more to prove at A Youngstown Penguins!
He has an AVG of .300 over there, so I think
a promotion wouldn't hurt him at all.

Regards,
Scouting Director



Date: Monday, 5/1/1897
Subject: Progress of Bill Banks
Dear Sir,
Bill Banks is doing pretty good at AA Canton-Akron Indians!
He has an ERA of 1.39, so you might want
to promote him soon!

Regards,
Scouting Director



Date: Monday, 5/1/1897
Subject: Progress of Charlie Brown
Dear Sir,
Charlie Brown has an ERA of 1.72 at A Youngstown Penguins!
I believe he is ready for the next level!

Regards,
Scouting Director



Date: Monday, 5/1/1897
Subject: Status of Mike Kahoe
Dear Sir,
Mike Kahoe shouldn't play at AA Canton-Akron Indians!
He has an AVG of .218 over there, that might
be a sign that he has been promoted to soon. You
should demote him before he gets burned.

Scouting Director
