Durocher Makes First Cubs Trade Two Rookies Involved
Leo Durocher, returning to the managerial ranks, made his first Cubs trade sending Lindy McDaniel and Don Landrum to the Giants for Bill Hands and Randy Hundley. Hundley, 24, praised for defense, is viewed as the key asset. Handley had a 90,000 bonus five years ago. McDaniel posted a 2.58 ERA in 71 relief appearances last season. Landrum, in his sixth season, hit .226 in 131 games. In other moves, Norm Siebern was dealt from Baltimore to the Angels for Dick Simpson. The AL explored bids for a Milwaukee franchise as NL President Giles indicated expansion for 1966 was not feasible.
