SAT MARCH 1 SEVEN ARE SENT HERE B Y DETROIT Portland Baseball: Club Gets Agreements on Flock of Ball Players, Including MaiseL EXCEPT for a third baseman and another experienced pitcher, the Portland Baseball club has been made up for the Pacific Coast league season. Manager McCredie received the agree ments from Detroit yesterday on seven ball players. Catchers Del Baker and Arthur Koehler, First Baseman Blue, Outfielder Walker, Infielder Frank Ful ler and Pitcher Carroll Jones. He may get one or two more before the club entrains for the Crockett training camp, but the wholesale turnover gives him a good ball club as it is. Proves Journal Story The releases of seven players at one time, bears out the exclusive Journal Istory that Detroit and Portland had hooked up on a "gentleman's agree ment," which was later denied in several quarters. President Navin of Detroit experi enced considerable difficulty in getting Infielder Fuller out of the American league, and must have done some tall talking to Clarke Griffith of the Wash ington club, who was holding up the transfer of the former International leaguer to the minors. Two Sw To McCredie Two of the players. Catcher Koehler and First Baseman Blue, are new to Manager McCredie, who thought at first that Dressen, an initial sacker who performed with St. Paul) would be sent out. Blue, who hailg from" Detroit, is said by Rudy Kallio, the Portland pitch er with the Tigers, to be a better first baseman than Dressen. Blue played at first base in only 12 games at St. Paul, which seemed to have trouble finding a good sacker. Gus Gleichman was there for 36 games and D. Williams for 14. Blue trailed" all the other first basemen. Koehler From Virginia Art Koehler came originally from the Virginia league, where McCredie says he hit over .300. He was with Rich mond in the International league tn 1917, fielding .980, and being tied for high in the league as a catcher. He batted .255 in 84 games. He joined the army last year and was stationed at San Diego. W'hen George Maisel .was with San Francisco, McCredie thought he was not only one of the best outfielders In the league, but the greatest "hit and run" man since the days of , Mike Mitchell. With Charlie Pick he was unbeatable in the "hit and run" style of play. Here's the Club McCredie's club now fashions itself into the following : Catchers Baker, Koehler and Bolezle. Pitchers Penner, Pennington, Lewis, Jones, Lay, Rapp, James, Schwartz and Shoup. First base Blue and Walters. Second base Siglin. Shortstop Fuller. Third base Coen. Riter and Cox. Left field Walker. Center field Maisel. Right field Farmer. Utility outfielders Daniels and Sulli van. May Take Bogart There Is a chance that McCredie will take Eddie Bogart, the-Aberdeen third baseman, south with him for a trial. Bogart hit .311 last year in the Pacific International, but was shy on fielding with .895.
