Washington club manager Charlie Dressen outlines a leaner roster for 1955 with pitching strength noted as key and a need for a solid 300 hitter in the outfield.

He cites four left-handed starters led by Johnny Schmitz and Dean Stone among others, and highlights Porterfield, Spec Shea, and Camilo Pasqual as right-handers.
