The major rule change this year enlarges the strike zone about ten inches, helping Stan Williams who was acquired from the Dodgers for Bill Skowron.

Whitey Ford signed for about 47000, boasting a .711 winning percentage. Boston signed Bill Monbouquette, who had 15 victories last year including a no-hitter. Lee Thomas reported early to Los Angeles camp in Palm Springs to work with pitchers and catchers.
