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

Team Doctor

Subject: Status of Tookie Gilbert
Dear Sir,
Tookie Gilbert has an AVG of .111 at AA Syracuse Breeze!
That's definitely no good sign. I suggest demoting him soon.

Regards,
Scouting Director

Subject: Status of Curt Roberts
Dear Sir,
Curt Roberts isn't hitting the ball at all at AA Syracuse Breeze!
He has an AVG of .226, so a demotion is
the right choice. He shouldn't be emberassed any more.

Regards,
Scouting Director

Subject: Playing time
I'd like to complain about my playing time, I think
I am a pretty good player, so why am I not
a regular in your lineups?

Subject: Status of John Powers
Dear Sir,
John Powers isn't hitting the ball at all at AA Syracuse Breeze!
He has an AVG of .248, so a demotion is
the right choice. He shouldn't be emberassed any more.

He is day-to-day, but full recovery will take 5 days.
