Senators Have No Established Stars On Team Orlando, Fla., March 31 —(VP) - To death and taxes you can add another sure thing so far as the 1949 major league .baseball season is concerned. And that is that the Washington Senators will finish in the second division of the American league. Rarely, if ever, except for war years, lias a team gone to the post with as few established major leaguers as are on the present roster of the Senators. Outside of pitchers — and there is some doubt about that department, too — manager Joe Kuhel doesn’t have a single player who honestly could be termed an established star. The closet to it probably would be Buddy Lewis, but he is coming back after a year's retirement and there is grave doubt that he ever will attain his pre-war peak as a consistent .300 hitter. Kuhel is hoping that he does, and that his long ball hitting will give the club a little something in the power department. He also is hoping that Ed Robinson, the big hirst baseman obtained from Cleveland will do the same. Despite the gloomy outlook. Kuhel does not think the situation is hopeless. “We might surprise a lot of people," he said. “We have a fine defensive club. If we can get some hitting and some pitching we mirfht be able to battle for fourth place," The team is pretty well set with Lewis, the disappointing Gil Coan and promising Ed Stewart in the outfield; Robinson, Al Kozar at second. Sam Dente at short and Ed Yost at third in the infield. While there is some doubt that Dente is a major league shortstop, there is no question at all but what he is Letter than any man Kuhel had at the post last year. Jake Early and Al Evans will handle the catching with Sid Hudson, Ray Scarborough. Walter Mas terson. Forrest Thompson, Milt Haefner and Joe Haynes the starting pitchers. For relief there will be Milo Candini and Ed Klieman, another exIndian chattel. Veteran Mark Christman figures
