Joe Birmingham does not share the
general opinion OF other managers that
the Athletics will repeat in the next pen
nant race. Here is the way the Cleve-
land manager sizes up the Athletics:
i do not believe the Athletics will
put up a better fight in 1914 than they
did last season. and, believing this. will
say that another team Will have an even
honorS.
Connie Mack will. I believe, admi,
that the Athletics had more than their
share OF luck last season. It is customary
TO allow FOR a reasonable amount Of good
fortune. but the purveyor of good luck
spilled his bucket over Mack and Mack S
team last season. 1t IS hard to under
stand how there can be 4 repetition next
season.
"Macks pitching staff will not, in my
belief. be any better Ia 1919 than it was
last season. [ doubt = 1t will be as good.

Is bound to come a time when it will turn
out true. Plank is close to thirty-ni.,
years did: Bender is thirty-siS; the laws
of nature will not permit them TO so
much farther.
While Mack was having his luck last
season Cleveland was hit hard because
of the injury TO Steen. the failure OF
Falkeu berg to pitch winning ball for sev-
eral weeks and the loss of effectiveness
OF Nean Gregg. Gregg displayed his true
form in the post-season series with Pitts
burgh. and I am confident that ne will
continue the form in 1914.
The Athletics will not be strengthened
as will the other clubs Of the league.
Mack seems willing to stand pat while
Griffith, Callahan. Jennings and the other
leaders. including myself. are adding new
material and developing It. Mack has
the greatest inneld: that seems generally
admitted. but his catching staff and out

Just because Ty Cobb has announced
that he is satisfied to remain with the
Detroit club. and that he will report
early and sign his contract, Detroit fans
and even Manager Jennings believe
that the Tigers will be d much more
successful team next season than they
have been for several years.
The changed attitude of Cobb is ex-
pected to work wonders. That Cobb was
dissatisfied with the Detroit club.
IIughey Jennings, Detroit and the base
ball patrons of that city during the
greater part OF the season is 4 fact.
That he wanted to get away and so
expressed himself on numerous occa-
sions Is another fact Incidentally, he
did not play anywhere near his real
form. With Cobb just going through
the motions of playing bali the effect
ON the entire team is easily realized.
But Cobb is q changed player accord
ing to his letter 10 President Navin,
which was made public a few days ago
He admits that he erred in wanting TO
be changed to some other club, and that
he is now ready to be loyal Co his cluo
and feels perfectly satisfied with con-
ditionS. lie says ne wants to do q whole
lot to show his appreciation of the treat
ment he has received at the hands OF
Narin.
Cobb has ability enough TO make
bail team a winner when he is trying
his best and he proposes to Go this next
season. though it does not speak well
for Cobb'S disposition when he virtually
admits that lie did not give his team his
best services III the last campaign.
The story has often been told how
Connie Mack tried to trade Nally Schang,
his great young catcher, for Patsy Green,
pitcher. who had been highly touted
and was on Frank Chances list. But
that was not the only player whom Mack
tried to get rid of and who later proved
of much value to his team.
Ii is not generally known that Bob
Shawkey was virtually forced upon the
worlds champions. Shawkey Was tipped
off to Johnny F,yers of the Cubs. Man
ager Dunn III facy, is said To have ad-
vised Evers to buy his riEht-handed
star. Evers had a scout lock him over
The scout reported that ShaW.iey was
a fair pitcher and might improve. Evers
however. did not enthuse over this re-
port and let the matter drop. 1t was in
July that Dunn went to Ne" York and
tried to induce Evers to buy Shawkey
