Hello Boss,
Our fans aren't really happy about the loss of Shovel Hodge.
The overall fan interest decreases slightly.

Sincerly,
Your PR Director

Subject: Status of Saul Davis
Dear Sir,
Saul Davis isn't hitting the ball at all at AA !
He has an AVG of .130, so a demotion is
the right choice. He shouldn't be emberassed any more.

Regards,
Scouting Director

Subject: Status of Jule Mallonee
Dear Sir,
Jule Mallonee shouldn't play at AA !
He has an AVG of .136 over there, that might
be a sign that he has been promoted to soon. You
should demote him before he gets burned.

Regards,
Scouting Director
