Whether Map

Maybe we need to come up with an 'All Weather Team', and the ability to cope with the foul stuff. I'll do my best, while we wait for our collective yards, basements, and streets to dry out. I don't know about the rest of the Nation, but we're none too dry here in Melrose.

C - Phil Roof, as in we need a roof over our heads

C - Johnny Bench, a good feature to have in the rain

C/1B - Muddy Ruel, a dead ball era guy who toiled for 19 seasons

1B - active player, J.T. Snow...and imagine if all this rain (over 10" in some places in Massachusetts) were snow

2B - Rex Hudler (wasn't he called 'Hurricane' at one time?)

3B - Brooks Robinson, the Vacuum Cleaner

3B - Pete Rose, April showers bring May flowers, Rose also played 1B, 2B, OF, and a variety of betting strategies

3B - Wade Boggs, double credit for the wading and the resultant bog

SS - Hubie Brooks (and you thought he was a basketball guy)

OF - Tim Raines

OF - Curt Flood, challenged the Reserve Clause

OF - Roy (Stormy) Weatherly; great imagination these baseball guys

P - David Weathers
P - Hideo 'Tornado' Nomo
P - Jim 'Mudcat' Grant
P - 'Sandy' Koufax - now it's drying compound, once it was sand
P - Storm Davis
P - Matt (in)Clement weather...only fitting that Clement kicked this off
P - Chuck Rainey (a forgettable righthander)
P - Tom House (we got a Roof, we need a House)

Manager - Mike Hargrove - the "Human Rain Delay" - Hargrove made Nomar Garciaparra's machinations a twitch

Hard to know when there'll be baseball again. Happy Mothers' Day to any of our readers celebrating the special day today. Remember, "motherhood is the only job that comes with no vacation."
