one fourth of their players to

as of today, listed a total of 854
players and only the signing of
252 of them has been announc
ed. .
That does not mean the rest
602 are holdouts, although
there are indications that there
is going to be a bumper crop of
players demanding moru money

known to have a number of 1046
contracts tucked safely away,
have made no announcements if

of 441 players while the Amer
ican league clubs have had bet
ter luck with 170 of their 413
players agreeing to terms thus
far.
