DOES RELIEF WOR SPORT SLANTS ‘When the Pittsburgh Pirates gave up Larry French and Freddie Lind- strom to the Chicago Cubs after the close of the 1934 season, they got Guy Bush and Babe Herman— and, “for good measure,” Big Jim Weaver was tossed in. Bush was the man the Pirates were reaily after, And so often happens base- ball deals, the big name in the transaction failed to live up to expectations while the athlete who was merely ‘thrown in" bproved very valuable, Last season, 1935, Bush scored only eight ‘victories while being charged with nine defeats. Weav er's record was decidedly better, for he was able to boast 14 wins | against eight losses. Still, the big star of tne Pirates’” mound staff was Cy Blanton. The sensational freshman hurler turned in 18 vic: tories while being charged with 13 trimmings. Bill Swift was secopd to Blanton in 1935, having a record of 15 and eight. When the Pirates gathered at I1ruining camp this.spring Manager |Pie Traynor planned to use Big |Jim as a relief hurler. Blanton, |Swift, Hoyt and Bush were slated {to start. But it hardly worked out that way. Blanton failed to flash the form that made him the outstanding freshman pitcher in the National League last season. Swift was slow in rounding into shape and Waite in mit to a major operation. ‘Bush failed to regain the prowess he showed when with the Cubs.
