PHIL DOUGLAS NOT
RESERVED FOR 1920
Erring Pitcher Not Included
Among Giants Held Over
for Next Season.
by FREDERICK G. LIEB.

John Heydler, president of the Ma
tional League, yesterday gave out the
! full list of National League players who
have been reserved for the season of
! 1920. Most of the clubs are recruited
up to their full winter limit of thirty
five and the Brooklyn club actually is
two over the limit. The Dodgers have
! thlrty-seven men on their reserve list
: The club with the smallest reserve list
is the Pittsburg aggregation, as Barney
! Dreyfuss has reserved only twenty-three
athletes for next season Dreyfuss, how
I ever. has six men on his voluntary re-
4 tired list and one man suspended.
The most outstanding feature Of the
reserve list of the Giants is that tho
name of Phil Douglas does not appear
! anywhere, not even as "A suspended play
/ er Whether this was an oversight or
means that McGraw has cut off the big
pitcher entirely remains to be seen.
/ Douglass name does not appear on the
New York slate
IIeinie Zimmerman. who had an in
definite suspension plastered on him on
the last Giant Western trip, evidently Is
| in good standing again He appears on
the regular New York list. Another in
terestng name on the New York reserve
list is Eddie Sticking, the young infeder.
| McGraw and William Baker, president
of the Phillies, had Quite a spat on the
Polo Grounds last summer on the sub
ject Of Sticking. McCIraw, asserted he
only leaned Sticking to the Philies when
Bancroft broke his leg, while Bakers
argument was that he got the player by
refusing to waive on him and had full
title to his services. McGraw evidently
converted Baker to his point of view.
McGraw Not on Reserve List.
For the first time in his long career
in baseball the name Of John McGraw
does not appear on reserve list. In his
new capacity as part owner of the
Giants McGraw has not considered 1t
necessary to reserve himself. Two other
managers, Hickey of St Louis and BezI
dek Of Pittsburg, also are unreserved.
Hickey is president-manager of the Car
dinals and therefore his post is similar
to that Of McGraW.
The failure of Barney Dreyfuss to re-
serve Hugo Bezdek is significant. 1t
! rather makes it look as though the cor
pulent Hugo is through in Pittsburg.
Bezdek was reserved year ago, hence
there must be some reason for his name
not appearing on the 1920 roster.
Rumors were rife all OF last season
that 1919 would see the end of Bezdek as
} a major league manager. Barney Drey
fuss isn't the easiest man in the world
.
duties al Perm State require much of his
time. Gossip around the worlds series
had Johnny Evers succeeding Bezdek.
Johnny and Barney would get along for
about a week. But perhaps Johnny
would take the Fred Clarke system of
! getting along with Dreyfuss, namely, to
return as good as he got.
