Stamper Released as Tomcats Seek Batting Power
Vic Dunaway reports the Cordele Tomcats released Stamper after a season of uneven hitting and strong third-base play. Tomcat management, led by Frank Lucchesi, aims to fill the gap with rookie Tom Burcham and pursue more starting pitching, possibly from Jim Carpenter. Lucchesi cites Stamper’s 200s batting and Burcham’s potential as hot corner and offensive punch. Also notes Williams Willett and Joe Carolan leading team stats and Hogan Golf Day turnout.
