(UPI Telephoto) Mm UKI spoDinrs Manager Murtaugh Feels Pittsburgh Has Chance This is the 11th in a se ries on the 1960 prospects of the major league clubs. By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor Fort Myers, Fla. -UPD- Dan ny Murtaugh isn't conceding a thing to the Dodgers, Braves and Giants, but it looks like his Pittsburgli Pirates lack the pitching and bench depth to overtake the three big clubs of the National league. He isn't as optimistic as he was a year ago at this time. At that time the manager of the Pirates gave his team "a fine chance to win." Today, he on ly says they have a chance. His club finished fourth In 1959 and the main strength they have added since then is getting outfielder Gino Cimoll from the Cardinals and catcher-third baseman Hal Smith from the Athletics. But to get Cimoll, he had to give up one of his four starting pitchers, Ronnie Kline. Three Established Starters That left the Pirates with only three established starters -Vern Law, Bob Friend and Harvey Haddix. Law had the best record of the three-win- nine 18 while losing nine Haddix was 12-12 and Friend slIuDed to an 8-19 mark. Behind them, in relief, he has one of the best in the business in little Roy Face, who won 18 while losing on ly one last season. But after those four his pitching is a question mark. As for his fourth starter. Bennle Daniels, 7-9 last sea son, has the inside track "If he makes it, it will be a big help," says Murtaugh, adding, however, that "we have to find others, too." beveral To Choos. From He hopes to find them from among George Witt, who didn't win a game last season while losing seven: Joe Gib bons, 16-7 with Columbus; Jim umoricM, 14-8 with Salt Lake City; Tom Cheney, 0-1 with the Cardinals and 5-8 with Omaha in 1959; Al Jackson, 15-4 with Columbus; Don Gross, 1-1 with Pittsburgh; and Ron Blackburn, who was 1-1 with the Pirates and 4-1 with Columbus. The rest of the Pirate club is set with the exception of one outfield spot and the third-string catching job. Bob Skinner in left and Ro berto Clemente in right are sure of outfield berths but Bill Virdon, the regular center fielder last year, could lose out to Cimoll. Smoky Burgess will be the first string catcher with Smith spelling him. Danny Kravltz has been hitting the ball hard in exhibition games.
