Grifith's scheme of developing his
Young pitchers after the season ~
closed is attracting "A lot of attention
among rival managers and the result
of this fall training will be watched
with interest.
II Is the first time in base ball that
a club has held it's young pitchers to-
xether after the campaign is over and
kept them at work. Heretofore they
have reported i'm the fall, have done
little work. and when they reported in
the spring have shows little, il any,
Improvement Incidentally. il has been
necessary to go slow with them in the
spring because they lacked the physi-
cal condition to do hard work in the
early weeks of the training. In the
fall the youngsters are naturally
ready to go the route. and. of course.
the work they are put through by
Griffith Is not injurious. but beneficial.
They are learning much and it is
figured that by spring every one of
them will show the benefits of the
training.
Is not at all unlikely that all the other
clubs will keep their young pitchers in
training In the fall as long as the weather
allows them to work outdoors.
Jean Dubuc. the cleverest pitcher on the
Detroit staff. believes that Bush of the
Athletics will develop into one of the
best pitchers in the American League.
Dubuc says of the youngster:
"A good many American League play
ers picked Bush to beat the Giants, and l
was one of them.

Youngsters Educated After
Season Is Over.

, Bush. / believe, will be one of the
greatest pitchers in this league, i'll "A
year or SO. He shut out in Philadel-
phia on our last trip there and in that
game he displayed 30 per cent more stuff
than in any previous encounter with the
Tigers. He had plenty of speed and a
wicked curve.
Bush. of course will never be in the
Walter Johnson class. but i would not
be surprised If he won many games.
He will have great hitting club behind
him. Bush is pitcher after the style OF
Jack Coonlbs, and is much better than
Shawkey, Brown or Houck.
Rumor has 1t that the Cincinnati club
may trade Joe Tinker to New York, where
1t seems he would be welcome Hermann
realizes that Tinker was never cut out
for a manager, and while he appreciates
his ability as a ball player. he is anxious
to secure competent man to handle his
team. He wants Herzog of the Giantsc.
and it is understood that McGraw will
demand Tinker in exchange.
Hermann however, Is not apt to give
up Tinker. for he is undoubtedly the best
shortstop Cincinnati has ever had.
The Giants are pretty sure to undergo
a lot of changes while McGraw is on the
worlds trip. The little manager has i'm
parted a lot of ideas to the club officials
which may be carried out during his alb
sence, and several important trades can
be looked for. McGraw would like to Sc
cure konetchy, and ii is limited that a
deal looking for change of base for the
big first baSeman is already under way.
Though his team has won three pen
nants in a row, McGraw realizes that he
needs some new faces. His failure to
have won any of the worlds series he has
taken part in during the last three years
has convinced him that his present team
is not strong enough to cope with the
American League champions, and he
wants to make some changes.
