November 26 1965
Yankees signed Bob Friend. The fans don't like it.
Traded 20 yo corner OF Roy Foster 1.5/2.5 for 27 yo good field no hit middle IF Bobby Wine 2.5 stars. He's a better backup than Roberto Pena or Dick Schofield.
The only offers I get for 2.5 star RP Orlando Pena with 50% retained are players making more than he is. He won $88,800 in arb. Looks like I should have released him. He has no more option years.
LA and NYY have market share "HUGE" I'm at "Very Big". My ticket price is $2.40, NYY is $2.75, and LA is $2.90. My ticket price is 5th highest. I'm going to keep it around $2.40 for season and $2.50 for daily an try to fill up Forbes Field. My attendance is 2nd, 54k behind NYY and 11k ahead of 3rd place LA.
Bobby Wine, Orlando Pena
