Giants bring Lohrman back as a costly homecoming
The New York Giants re acquire pitcher William Lohrman from the St. Louis Cardinals, part of a larger pattern of past Giants sales and re acquisitions. The move follows prior trades involving Hank Leiber and Dick Bartell, with owner Horace Stoneham balancing cash and players as the club reshapes its roster toward a 1937 style lineup. The deal heights the question of Lohrman s future effectiveness after a mixed 1938 1941 record and a 4 02 ERA in 1941.
