Baseball Trade Shelves Buddies Rosar Cullenbine For Grimes Poe
In a no cash deal announced by New York Yankees president Ed Barrow, catcher Buddy Rosar and outfielder Roy Cullenbine move to Cleveland Indians in exchange for outfielder Roy Poe and infielder Oscar Grimes. Rosar is highlighted as the key man for the Indians, who need backstopping with Jim Hegan and Otto Denning leaving. The trade aligns with wartime roster shifts as Rizzuto, Rolfe, Hassett, and Crosetti face service calls or suspensions. Weatherly and Keelander may boost Yankees defense with Grimes handling multiple infield spots for Cleveland.
