Na Na Na, Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey Goodbye Gload

Ross Gload was traded with cash for a player to be named later today. I for one am furious. How will the Royals replace his massive production though? I mean can you really find another .272/.318/.348 player? Especially at the first base position who else give you these numbers? He also smashed 3 HR's in his rein of terror on pitchers. This is also coupled with his ability to play a corner outfield position at a less than average level. How do you let this type of player go? I mean can Shealy, Ka'iahue, Butler, or Jacobs match that? They all pale in comparison to Ross Gload. Who won't miss his clutch ground outs? Actually in all seriousness this is amazing. Gload constantly brought this club down. His production for a first baseman was putrid and he can't really play anywhere else. Good Riddance! Although Trey may shed a tear when he goes to put down Gload on the card and is forced to play a legit 1B. It'll be okay Trey!
