Subject: Riccardo Ingram learns new position
Riccardo Ingram has made noteable progress
learning his new position, Rightfield.
I would rate his skills as "10" right now.

Subject: Progress of Ramon Martinez
Dear Sir,
Ramon Martinez has nothing more to prove at AA Chattanooga Lookouts!
He has an AVG of .343 over there, so I think
a promotion wouldn't hurt him at all.

Regards,
Scouting Director

Subject: Status of Charlie Greene
Dear Sir,
Charlie Greene isn't hitting the ball at all at AA Chattanooga Lookouts!
He has an AVG of .154, so a demotion is
the right choice. He shouldn't be emberassed any more.

Scouting Director
