Giants Face Hard Choices On Pitching And First Base
The New York Giants confront two major issues pitching and first base. Front-line pitching may be hard to acquire with owner Horace Stoneham likely unable to obtain a top hurler, while rookie Jack Harshman struggles at first base. Gilbert, a promising Giants farmhand in Minneapolis and past minor league seasons, may need another year in the minors despite strong hitting in 1947 1948 and 1949 with Erie Sioux City and Nashville.
