No Blitz?

Word on the street is that Scott "Blinky" Dumouchel, the fearless leader of the Blitz, is getting married that weekend so they are not entering the qualifier.

No Micksburg?? What are they planning this season?

Because the pitcher rule only prohibits teams from picking up pitchers off the elite pitcher list after they have qualified, does that mean that Costello will re-join Easton prior to the qualifier/TOC?

I'm not sure what is going on with Micksburg Twins this season. I did hear from Jerry McIntyre that he has retired and will be coaching his son's team, but I'm not sure if the team will continue as a league and/or tourament team or not. I'm not even sure about the UOVMFL continued existence. Anyone with any info, feel free to send it on to fastball[at]fitzroyharbour.com or my work email if you have it.

As far as Corey Costello is concerned, the rumour mill has him playing with another team in southwestern Ontario this year in ISC II play. Haven't seen any 'official' announcement, so that's why I haven't posted anything. Again if anyone has anything for me, send it on!

Well that's what I heard, but that's the first time I have seen it "officially" anywhere!
