Allow Myself To Introduce ... DJ Dozier & Friends
This is the third of (hopefully) twelve introductory posts about each of the twelve teams in the league. It is also the first running feature of this blog and is therefore extremely exciting.
DJ Dozier & Friends
Owner: Gil McDavies
Favorite Squad: New York Mets
Favorite Squad In A Sport Other Than Baseball: UVA women's volleyball
Interesting Factotum: In law school, McDavies used to hustle at Golden Tee. I saw this live last fall on a Saturday afternoon in Manhattan. McDavies and I had met Reardon Rosenrosen for the Michigan - Notre Dame game at Croxley Ale House. Later, after throwing back pitchers and shots from noon until 5 pm, Reardon bailed on us and McDavies and I were left stranded on the Lower East Side without a dime to spare. Enter McDavies' Golden Tee prowess. For the next two hours, as Vince Young lead Texas to a victory over Ohio St., McDavies took on all challengers and won seven straight games, the last on a fall away 6o-foot putt while staring at his opponent who stood at the side of the machine watching the screen forlornly.
Not-So-Interesting Factotum: Bailed on the Mets - Nats game last night in order to "work."
Opening Day Starters
C- Kenji Johjima
1B - Chad Tracy
2B - Marcus "I'm Even Stranger Than My Brother ... And That's Pretty Strange" Giles
3B - Morgan "I'm Not As Good As My 2005 Numbers Indicate" Ensberg
SS - Jimmy "I Didn't Want To Hit In 40 Straight Games Anyway" Rollins
OF - Hideki "Barely Legal" Matsui
OF - Juan "Why Stop at Second For a Double When You Can Go To Third" Pierre
OF - Jim Edmonds
U - Jim "Peoria, Illinois-Beast" Thome
SP - Chris "There's No Way I Last The Season" Carpenter
SP - Rich Harden
SP - "King" Felix Hernandez
SP - Jon Lieber
SP - Matt Morris
RP - Mariano Rivera
RP - Huston Street
RP - Justin "Duked Her" Duchscherer
RP - Cliff Politte
Predicted Finish: 8
Dozier's pitching, if healthy, might be the best in the league, but he will be hard pressed to recover from a pre-season trade of A-Rod. Ensberg and Tracy will have to be beasts for him to finish any higher than 8th.
Odds He Will Hang A Championship Banner Next Season: 30 to 1
