Braves Begin To Tighten Talent With Cruise Arrival
The Braves move to strengthen their roster as Grant signs the pitcher Cruise from the St. Louis Cardinals and plans to use him immediately. Cruise, recovering from a winter illness, shows potential to lift a team pressed by rivals while Stallings eyes another acquisition. Rumors persist about Art Nehf and John McGraw, but Boston remains firm on its stance. The Pirates visit for three games as Pat Moran’s revived squad prepares next.
