WHY NOT THIS?

Trotters and pacers always have their marks after their names; so why not transmit the idea to baseball? Thus: Ty Cobb, .368, may omit the Southern training trip. Hans Lobert, .275, is spending the winter in Cuba. Connie Mack has sold Eddie Collins, .344, to Chicago. Boston parts with a bundle and gets Sherwood Magee, .314. Heine Zimmerman, .296. declares that he will get Johnny Evers, .279, the first chance that offers. Charles j Deal, .210, wanted more coin and got 23. The Phils failed to swap Milton Stock, .263, for Heine Groh, .288.
