Lee Ma gee decided to continue his holdout and so far has not put in an appearance. With regard to his case, Manager Moran said that the liberal contract offered him, which met withthe entire approval of the Red leader, will ,be withdrawn, and the offer will not be fenewed except at a lesser figure. "I am determined to have no insubordination on any team," said Pat. Pat is getting to think pretty well of his pitching staff. Ray Fisher, fresh from a winter at his home in Vermont, looks very good. Fisher and Sallee are two old-timers who will furnish plenty of experience for the younger members of the staff. Hod Eller is much heavier than last year, tipping the beam at an even 200 pounds. He expects to take off about twenty pounds at the training camp here. Manager Moran has claimed Outfielder Al Wickiand, on whom waivers have been asked by the Boston club. "Wickiand was with the Keds for a short time before going to the Federal league. He has developed into quite a hitter, and should fit in very well in right field. |
