BARROW'S RED SOX.

The Boston Red Sox Club is the
enigma of the American League.
Nine regulars, incluGTng Manager
Jack Barry. have gone in to the
service and the 1918 club will be
an entirely different Organization
from that which finished in second
place last fall.
Eddie Barrow, the new manager,
must build up a new infield and re-
construct his outfield. The pitching
stan is almost as good as last year
with Baby Ruth, Mays Leonard and
Joe Bush carrying the blunt of the
burden.
The infield question is still an
unsolved problem. Hoblitzell will
again be found at the initial sack
with either the Human-crab Johnny
Evers or Stuffy McInnis at the
midway sack. Scott will again play
the short field with wauy Schang
at the hot corner. Whether Bar
row can make a capable second
sacker out of McInnis remains to
be seen. while Schang has yet to
prove that he can hold down third.
The hitting strength of this infield
combination is one Of the best in
the league.
Hooper. Walsh and Henricksen
will be the Outfield which will no
doubt start the season, while Ag-
new will be called on to do most
of the catching.
There are mapv Ifs" having a big
bearing on the Bean-towners
chances, but hould Barrow's work
over these rocky roads, Boston is
sure first division club. and one
with the pitching which 1t will re-
ceive, should be up there all sea-

unless he is called into government
service. Williams has more expert
ence and should have a good season.
Russell probably will not play this
year but a few good games may be
expected from Danforth and Wolf
gang. Benz is about through.
Where the SoX pitching stan has
been strengthened is in two recruit
hurlers, Shellenbacker and Paul Mus
ser. Musser is a steady right-handed
pitcher with good curves, plenty of
speed and a fine change of pace.
The infield will be the same as last
year; Gandil at first, Collins at sec
ond, either Risberg or Weaver at
short and Weaver or McMullin at
third.
The outfieId of 1917 is intact. Joe
Jackson, Hap FeIsch and either Memo
Leibold or John Collins will play
regularly. Eddie Murphy will act
as utility outfielder. 1t is great
outfield extensively and defensively.
Ray Schalk expects his greatest
season this year. He reported sew
eral pounds heavier than last year
and believes the added weight will
give him more strength for the long
grind. Lynn and a youngster. Lees,
will assist in the catching.
With the White Sox pitching staff
looking stronger than last year and
the other departments as good as in
1917 il is hard to see how they be
denied a second remnant
The Washington herald., 1918-04-14
FOHL'S INDIANS.

Manager Lee Fohl faces the same
problem which he had last season
that is. Of having to solve the first
base question again. Harris, who ex-
ceeded all expectations last season,
was called by the draft, along with
Guisto, and Fohl must first plug
this hole at the initial sack before
any great things can be expected
Of his Indian crew.
Fohl will probably have to choose
from Marty Kavanaugh and a couple
Of untried rockies. The Indians out
field, which Is one of the best in
either of the major leagues, Is still
intact, and will again help to pound
over a few tallies for the Indians.
Ray Chapman may be lost to the
team at any time, as he has been
placed in the A Class, but with
Chapman in the lineup the Indians
are not so bad OF on the inner works,
outside Of the initial bag. Joe Evans
will be with the team after June.
as he was allowed an exemption
from the army so as to finish his
dental course at college. wambs-
ganns, along with Turner, are the
other infielders
Foil appears pretty well for
titled at this angle, as Chapman is
ranked as one of the best second
sackers in the circuit while wamby

ROWLAND'S WHITE SOX.

As the gong sounds for the 1918
baseball season there Is no way of
figuring on any American League
club that has much OF a chance to
beat the White Sox to the wire
next October.
OF all the clubs in the league, the
wonderful machine Comiskey built
up with years of careful selection
OF stars is practically intact. OF the
sixteen clubs in the major league
the Sox suffered least from the
army draft
The club which will take the
field Tuesday viii be the same that
marched off with the world cham
pionship last fall when Heine zim-
norman chased Eddie Collins
across the plate with the winning
run of the final game of the world
series II the White Sox do not
win the pennant II will be the big
gest surprise of years IN baseball.
In one respect the White Sox
look stronger than last year.
The main criticism of the Sox last
year was a rather Ineffective pitch
ing staff-not a weak staff-but
the lack Of enough dependable box
men In whom all confidence could
be placed.
This year. unless Red Faber Is
fted. the Sox pitching staff will
tronger than last year.

the harness. The Giants should be
at or near the top all season.
THE PHILLIES-Moran will be
lucky to finish in the first division
this year. His pitching staff has
been wrecked by the sale of Alex
ander and the enlistment of Rixey
and his catching stan demoralized
by the sale Of Killefer. Moran is
a plugger who gets the most out
Of his material, but the loss of his
of about thirty games more than
were lost last season.
THE REDS This club was
scarcely touched by enlistments or
the draft. The same hard hitting
aggregation. which Matty, piloted
last year should be able to give the
Giants a fight all season. There
have ben no additions of conse-
Quence to the club.
THE CARDINALS--The ST. Louis
aggregation last season played
wonderful ball until the fag end of
the year when they slumped badly.
About the same club will take the
field this year, the only loss of con-
sequence being Jack Mil er.
Whether Jack Hendricks will be
able to do as well with the men as
Miller Huggins did remains to be
seen.
THE CUBS-Manager Fred Nit
chell faces his supreme test this
year. He has been given a recon-
structed pitching stan and has suf-
fered no considerable losses. The
addition of Alexander and Tyler as
sures him of mighty good pitching.
and Killefer will be a valuable ad-
dition to his catching staff. The
Cubs should be a first division
club.
THE BRA VES-The Stallings out

Herzog will fill the hole in the in
field depends entirely upon Herzog.
The pitching staff was badly
wrecked by trades which sent
Barnes to New York and Tyler to
Chicago. s. llugs must build up
an entirely new n't"hing stan. Bos-
ton will do well " finish better
than last year.
THE RoBINS-Smiling wilbert
Robinson was hardest hit Of any
National League manager by the
war. Eight of his players includ-
ing three first string pitchers
either enlisted or were drafted.
Robinson's success depends a great
deal on what he can do with
Mamaux and Grimes, new pitchers
secured from Pittsburgh. Both the
infield and outfield are mediocre.
The Robins can hope for nothing
better than the second division.
THE PIRATES-Hugo Bezdek
cannot hope to have much better
success than last year. regardless
of the fact that his club was not
hit hard by war conditions. Tho
transfer of Cutshaw and Stengle to
the Pirates will strengthen. the
club some. but one of the best of
the Pittsburgh pitchers. Carlson. is
now in United States service and
the situation is about balanced.
The Washington herald., 1918-04-14
HagEIns to Have Money.

HugElmH TO nave Money
Miller Higgins for the first time in
his managerial career will have plenty
Of material and money to work with.
In st. Louis Huggins was never able
TO get players or money to buy play
ers with. In New York he can have
anything he asks for within reason.
I'd Barrow has no easy proposition
at Boston. But Ed knows baseball
and has usually been rather fortunate
i'm getting the most out of the ma
terial at hand.
The situation in the National League
as the season opens is not so COM
pIicated as that in the American. The
older organization has sent less men
to war and there have been fewer
and less complicated trades than was
the case in the Johnson circuit.
Nevertheless the situation Is far
more confusing than 1t has been in
past years Some of the clubs, par
tIcularIy Brooklyn. have lost heavily
through cnlistments and the draft,
others have gained or lost strength
through trades.
The transfer OF Alexander and
EiHefer to Chicago is certain to make
the Cubs a bigger factor than they
have been for many years, while the
Phillies will suffer correspondingly.
One new manager will be found in
the National League ranks, Jack
Hendricks having succeeded Miller
Huggins at st. Louis. Hendricks has
always been successful in the minor
leagnes. but that cannot be taken as
a criterion of what he will do in the
National. Hugo Bezdek. who did
fairly well for a couple of months at
pittsburgh. will be watched closely
this wear. He is the first case OF a man
without professional baseball ex-
perience managing major league
