Indians Lack Power and Pitching Threats to Yankees
Sid Mercer reports Cleveland carries a strong pitching core led by Bobby Feller who won 24 games last season but overall lacks hitting punch. The infield is improved with Boudreau at short and Mack adding defense, while outfield includes Heath Weatherly and Chapman with Bell and Campbell as reserves. Vitt plans to rely on young arms alongside Harder Hudlin and Milnar.
