Whalen and Pitching Mix in Open Club Decision
Manager Schmidt weighs keeping Whalen as utility infielder with four pitchers or adding a fifth hurler and releasing Whalen. Whalen can play second third and short and hit adequately, but a five pitcher staff may be essential for a Class A club. The fourteen man limit pressures the choice as Cavet Ledbetter Holmquist Harris and Covington form the current staff. Schmidt must decide before next Sunday with four infielders three outfielders two catchers and either five pitchers or four plus Whalen.
