He might be 36 and past his absolute best, but
Nap Lajoie is still a premier player in this league. And now, I am overjoyed to announce, he is a Pirate. Signed to a 4-year, $18000 deal, we'll be looking to Larry not only for his production on the field, but his guidance and leadership on some of our younger players off it. HE will be our everyday 2B.
This is the first domino, and forms part of a broader plan I have formulated to bring our club back into contention, where it should be.
