make the admirers Of the Giants feel Mt all
uneasy is that the management lacks the
push which characterizes tho Chicagos and
Philadelphia.
In the estimation of some of the shrewd-
est experts the Philadelphias and the De-
troits will present the two strongest teams in
the League. They have added players to
their lists, but they will present the same
mines they had last season. There will be
one advantage in this, at least for the early
part of the season, that the men are thor
oughly acquainted with one another's strong
and weak points, and this is everything in
making good start. Under the three strike
rule Baldwin and Conway, of the Detroits,
will recover their effectiveness. Getzein act
ually did all the pitching last year, as the
four strike rule handicapped the other pitch
ers Dunlap will not be greatly missed, as,
to the minds of the directors, Richardson's
work was far superior to Dunlap's.
The Quaker City team is strong in every
position. Its pitchers are excellent, and both
the infield and the outfield are as strong as
could be desired. The team, being a very
light batting one, depends mostly on base
running, and it was this that landed them
second in the fight for the pennant last year.
From present indications the winner of
Ine LedBue championship Will nave 10 Dc
looked for among the Detroit Chicago, Phil
adelphia and New York clubs the teams be-
ing fancied in the order named. Pittsburg
and Boston, however, are by no means out of
the race but they are not as strong in
pitchers as the four clubs named. The Pitts
burg management in particular has spent
considerable money in securing players. The
great Dunlap will strengthen the team at
second base and Mani and Henderson MIGHT
surprise many with their work in the box.
The nine has no regular first baseman, and,
of course, this is a hard position to have
properly covered. Then again the outfield
is trife weak compared to the other clubs
and while the team ranks high in fielding
it stands low in batting.
The Boston nine, like the New Yorks, are
slow in grasping an opportunity when offered
to win game. They have more excellent
material, but they do not seem to be able to
play together to to the fullest advantage,

though they may change materially for the
better now that Clarkson has been added to
the team. Clarkson and Kelly are known as
the $4,000 battery now, and have called out
unbounded enthusiasm at each appearance
so far. Snowden, also new recruit, els
pitcher of no mean ability.
The two clubs that are evidently destined to
bring up the rear are the indianapolis and
Washington mines. The managers of the
latter have done very little in the way of
strengthening their forces. In fact they
have weakened themselves by releasing Paul
Hines, their heaviest batter. The In
danapolis people have made one good move
in securing first of all manager who has de-
servedly earned very wide reputation. This
is Mr.. G.. Spence, and he will in time collect
together a good team that will do credit to
Hoosierville.
In the American association the race for
the pennant will be exceedingly hot, now
that all the clubs have been strengthened
considerably over last season. In Brooklyn
the home team is looked upon as a sure win
ner, but Cincinnati and Baltimore are, to all
intents and purposes, equally strong with the
Brooklyns, and SO far as the st. Louis,
Louisvilles, Athletics and Clevelands are
concerned there is very little to choose be-
tween them. The Kansas Citys will prob
ably bring up the rear, but all the teams are
so very strong that it is more than hazardous
to pick the winner, and hence the prospects
are that it will be nip and tuck for the best
part of the season. c. V. SASS.
