Week 11 Youth Pull

We weren’t able to unload last week’s youth pull, Michael Herron, and he has since been canned. This week, the mediocrity which describes our youth squad during the last half of this season continues. Despite being 17 years old, I highly doubt that anyone would be willing to pay for Juan Berman, this week’s product. He has been sent back to high school, where he belongs.

I probably should have pulled a keeper this week, but did not. That appears to have been a mistake. I will probably pull keepers for the remainder of the season, and see what we get.
