1917 Opening Day

Don’t forget you can access our team page if so inclined HERE, but here’s the annual summary.

I feel confident that the injection of new blood will stave off any staleness and complacency in the group. My main focus early on will be how our new defensive formation is working out and what, if any, tinkering is needed. Here’s the squad as it lines up on OD.

Catchers
  • C Ted Easterly (L)
  • Les Nunamaker (R) – will once again see almost all of his starts v LHP

Easterly was sensational last year for us and we’re looking for the same again this time around. Gibson isn’t too far off ready, O’Farrell still a while off.

Infielders
  • 1B Oscar Charleston (L)
  • 2B Heinie Groh (R)
  • 3B Frank Baker (L)
  • SS John Henry Lloyd (L)
  • Scott Ingerton (R)
  • Bob Fisher (R)
  • Dick Lundy (S)
  • Joe Schultz (R)

Pop gets one more chance at SS, but the line is taut. Lundy and Fisher both ready to step up. Keen to see how Charlie handles 1B.

Outfielders
  • LF Elmer Smith (L)
  • CF Max Carey (S)
  • RF Ty Cobb (L)
  • Carson Bigbee (L)
  • Zaza Harvey (L)

Joe Schultz will actually get the LHP platoon in left. We'll rotate players whenever rest is needed.

Rotation
  1. RHP Walter Johnson
  2. RHP Andrew Foster
  3. LHP Wilbur Cooper
  4. RHP Carl Mays

Well we’ve done everything possible to tighten this group up. Now it’s all about performing.

Bullpen
  • RHP Louis Drucke
  • RHP Al Mamaux
  • RHP Rube Vickers
  • LHP Lefty Williams

Dauss, Adams and a few others ready to be deployed if and when needed.
