SWAMP Ouimet, Health Restored, With Yanks not only fail to show a big gain of Yankees, the next most formidable club In pitching strength, is much greater than I anticipated, and study the offitial averages of the men as one will, it is impossible to figure the much heralded strength of the Yank pitching corps, as compared with that of Cleveland. ‘The tremendous surprise to me lies in finding the St. Louis Brewns rank- ing third in pitching strength, and rather comfortably ahead of the Champion White Sox, who have lost caste and strength to a great degree. In fact, a comparison of the pitching strength of the White Sox with their dope strength of a year ago shows @ loss of twenty-two points on the sec- ond doping (just Boe a eee lim between Leo THe of the 1919 season), although a g: ¥ of several points over the compara- and Mike oot a former mat artist tive figures three weeks re the openihg of the season. You understand, of course, that in doping pitching strength of teams in the spring I take this dope a fortnight before the start of the season and, after seeing the development of the kids in the South, amend the figures just prior to opening day. Last year the White Sox made a sharp gain dur- ing that period and this year they promise to show a loss. Washington now ranks fifth, and the standing of the team in the pitch- ing department is not due alone to Johnson. Griffith has amassed quite a capable bunch of twirlers to back the great Walter, and there is a chance that the amended pitching figures will |show that Washington Is close to or ahead of the champions in this regard.
