Aging Infield Seen To Giants For 1934 Season
NEW YORK, Jan. 14. Aging infield questions hang over the New York Giants as Dick Bartell arrives from the Phillies to join Bill Terry, Hughey Cruz, and Travis Jackson. Terry, 36, vows his current model will be his best since 1932, while Cruz turns 35 in September and Jackson nears 32. Terry argues the veterans can still perform at high levels, noting Cruz isn’t through and Jackson was a top shortstop before moving to third. He cites his own sharp batting, last season at .254, second to Paul Waner, and expects no drastic drop in performance as the team battles for a repeat in the 1934 season.
