Seattle Ships Beck to Detroit
Tuesday, January 16th , 2063
Proving the old adage that one man's trash is another man's treasure, the Rocketeers announced today the acquisition of $9 in cash from the Detroit Rock City in exchange for 29-year old CF McFlurry Beck. "This isn't the deal of the century," acknowledged the Rocketeers, "but we think it will improve the direction of both teams."
Seattle will retain a portion of Beck's remaining contract.
In his 617-game career Beck has tagged 583 hits with 126 doubles, 23 triples and 44 home runs. His lifetime batting average is .252 with 240 RBIs and 253 runs scored.

3L News Flash: Winter Meetings Begin
Monday, January 15th , 2063
The Menard's Third League winter meetings are a godsend to a gabby baseball media hungry for rumors, intrigue and talk of a brighter day. Free agents will meet with prospective clubs. The fraternity of managers will gather in little clusters, assessing the past season, while GMs sit in their own little covens concocting intricate potions in the hope that they will be able to pull off a magical trade before the meetings close in three days.
This is also a reminder for teams to set their ticket prices for next season. Prices cannot change after season tickets go on sale at the end of the Winter Meetings.
