Message-ID: <714@noscvax.UUCP> Date: Thu, 13-Dec-84 19:45:49 EST Article-I.D.: noscvax.714 Posted: Thu Dec 13 19:45:49 1984 Date-Received: Sat, 15-Dec-84 02:55:09 EST Organization: Naval Ocean Systems Center Lines: 35 Baltimore digs deep to revamp the outfield via free-agency. With Lee Lacy (lf) and Fred Lynn (cf) to protect Ripken and Murray from walks and their starting rotation intact, the O's will make it difficult for the Tigers to repeat. Toronto gives up two starting infielders to finally get the premier relief pitcher they've been missing. Cliff Johnson is lost to free-agency. New York picks up the best all-around centerfielder (save Chet Lemon) in the AL but can George keep his mouth shut long enough for all these prima donnas to win. Detroit still doesn't have a third-baseman as they trade their best prospect at that position for a fourth starting pitcher. Will some kindly Met fan please tell all about Walt Terrell? Boston and Cleveland better get their act together. This is the high-rent district!
