WHAT BIG LEAGUE TEAMS LOOK
BEST TO YOU? DOPE IS UPSET

The winter campaign, the trad
ing and buying of players Is over
and the big league ball clubs have
hiked southwark. II is time to
take an inventory of what has
happened and what effect the
changes made during the winter
are likely to have.
At this time It looks as II the
Cincinnati Reds. the New York
Yankees and the Chicago White
Sox have made the important
gains during the winter; that the
Athletics and Boston Braves both
have suffered damage.
The others will start the spring
training dependent entirely upon
the discovery of new material to
strengthen them and add to their
chances. The going to the White
Sox Of Eddie Collins, the Ath-
letics great second baseman, al
most assures that team of a good
showing.
The rule forcing clubs of the
National league to reduce to 81
players undoubtedly has hurt
both the Braves and the New
York Giants. Both have men they
can i'll spare, but who cannot be
depended upon through an entire
season. The Braves will not be
able to carry understudies to hit
right or left handed and cover
UP the batting weaknesses of the
others, and New York will be
handicapped in that its old stars
are wearing out and 1t will have
small chance to develop young
men to take their places.
Cincinnati made huge gain In
getting Charlie Doom. 1t has not
had an experienced catcher, and
Herzog needed one to steady his
inexperienced pitchers.
The other National league clubs
appear little changed from last
season, save the Phillies. That
team was at stage where the
only thing to do was to discard
lot of good men who were out of
sympathy with the club and get
some willing workers. Cleveland
was in the same fix, paying. high
salaries to stars who wouldn't
twinkle, and is better off with
new men who are anxious to hus-
tie.
The Athletics are shot to pieces,
but remember that, while his reg
ular team was resting last fall
preparatory to the worlds series.
Mack put team in the field that
licked Washington in hot series,
and every one was a recruit.
In the Federal league President
Gilmore's stand against the emery
ball seems to have crippled the
indianapolis champions. Falken-
berg was the best pitcher in the
world last fall, but he will be
heavily handicapped by the new
rule.
Chicago has strengthened and
no longer will be helpless before
left-handed pitching. The addf-
ton of one good pitcher at Balti-
more makes that team look about
as steady and consistent as any,
and Brooklyn has strengthened
wonderfully.
