While the prospects Of the teams in
The major leagues will be subject of
interest to baseball enthusiasts even
if as far removed from the games as
is New York from San Francisco, the
possibilities of the season of 1910 can
not be reviewed without the minor
league situations being sized UP.
IN the smaller organizations man.
ayers of the teams have a harder task
than those in the big circuits. The
manager Of club in the major leagues
can stand pat on his team if he chooses
TO. but such is not the case within the
minors. Every year big inroads are
made In nearly every club, and the
stars are gobbled up by the big
ieaguers. When the time comes for
the manager of the minor league club
70 make up his team for the season he

he can get together q winning combi-
nation Every year intense interest is
displayed in the fights for the much
coveted gcnfalon in the smaller cir
cults. In the some thirty odd minor
leagues in organized baseball there is
represented an invested capital Of
S20,000000, and last season over a.
100000 people attended the games.
In spite of the scattered discussion
during the winter to the effect that the
American association might put up
firebrand and toss it into organized
baseball, there is nothing which would
indicate that the minors will not enjoy
more prosperity than ever before.
American Association.
In the American association another
grand struggle is anticipated From
present indications the second division
teams of last season Will be heard
from this year. St Paul, Toledo, Co
lumbus and Kansas City have all been
strengthened up so much that the first
division is beginning to get nervous
as to its welfare.
Manager Carr of indianapolis has
succeeded in gathering together an
imposing array of baseball talent and
by many is looked upon as the one
best bet for the flag this season His
material, Judging from the records, is
classy, but it is OF the field and not
on paper that strength counts.
The Minneapolis club appears to b(s
just as strong a hitting club as THAI
of last season and q far better field
