Brooklyn and Cincinnati will present line-ups altered from top to tom. ‘The Yankees, the Cubs, the Braves and the White Sox likewise have achieved radical shake-ups, all calculated to im- prove their chances of going somewhere and entertaining the customers. Alone of the clubs figured seriously in the title hunts, Connie Mack’s Ath- letics stand pat on the line-up that dropped the world series honors last October after carrying off the American League championship for the third straight year. Mack, however, has for- tified himself with youthful reserves for emergencies, and relies on the big punch to back up his redoubtable pitching trio of Grove, Earnshaw and Walberg. The experts are not quite so hopeful as the magnates in respect to the pen- nant outlook. The big majority, mak- ing their verdict public through the As- sociated Press poll, regard the Cardinals and Athletics as strong favorites to re- | peat, with the New York Giants and Yankees the only really serious con- tenders. Optimism is strong, neverthe- less, in the camps of such first-division outfits as the Cubs and Washington Senators. Even though they rule the base ball world for the time being, it is a bit mys!.lrf'mg to find the Cardinals so strongly supported. The St. Louis out- fit, besides trading Burleigh Grimes to | the Cubs, will start the campaign with- ‘ out the services of the holdout National League hitting champion, Chick Hafey, | and with question marks on the ability of two pitching rookies, Tex Carleton and Dizzy Dean. ‘Whether or not they keep their place at the top, the Cardinals will be one of the most colorful attractions, with chain-store rookies put to the big test and the exploits of Pepper Martin, hero of the world series, in the spomght Martin has shown enough in Spring training to warrant the prediction he | will have a flashy year. From the outset, while all the Spring dope is being put to the test, unusual | interest will attach to the come-back | efforts of such players as Hack Wilson | |and Art Shires, in addition to the | | debuts of about a dozen well bally- hooed newcomers. The Yankees, with Crosetti and Sal- tazgaver, and the Cubs, with Hack and | Herman, will introduce a pair of infield colts of whom much is expected. Opening line-ups also are expected to find the responsibility of regulars put n the youthful shoulders of Len oenecke, in the outfield for the | Glants; Harold Anderson, outfielder, and Carey Selph, infielder of the White | Sox; George Davis, outfielder of the Tigers; Fritz Knothe, third baseman of the Braves; Tony Plet, second baseman of the Pirates, and Joe Morrisey, in- | fielder of the Reds.
