Subject: Progress of Tex Clevenger
Dear Sir,
Tex Clevenger has nothing more to prove at AA Chattanooga Lookouts!
He has an ERA of 1.95 over there, so I think
a promotion wouldn't hurt.

Regards,
Scouting Director

Subject: Progress of Bill Tremel
Dear Sir,
Bill Tremel has nothing more to prove at AA Chattanooga Lookouts!
He has an ERA of 3.43 over there, so I think
a promotion wouldn't hurt.

Subject: Contract extension
Hello,
I just wanted to let you know that I'm
in my last year of the contract.
Are you interested in giving me an extension?
I'd be happy to play for you again next year!

Regards,
Gus Niarhos

Subject: My role in this team
Sir,
I believe that I am deserving more than being a reliver.
I want a spot in the rotation, I think
I would do an adequate job. Otherwise, I'd like to play
elsewhere!

Joe Coleman

Subject: Bill Taylor learns new position
Bill Taylor has made noteable progress
learning his new position, First Base.
I would rate his skills as "7" right now.

Subject: Status of Eddie O'brien
Dear Sir,
Eddie O'brien isn't hitting the ball at all at AA Chattanooga Lookouts!
He has an AVG of .246, so a demotion is
the right choice. He shouldn't be emberassed any more.

Regards,
Scouting Director

Subject: Starting pitcher
Manager,
Believe it or not, but I am a starting pitcher!
Would you please treat me as one and put
me in the rotation?

Subject: Bob Miller healing process
Bob Miller is not recovering as fast as I have
hoped! So expect his injury to last about 7 more days.

Team Doctor
