Rosters: The Walleyes

Pitchers (7): Roosevelt Davis, Frank Wickware, Dave Brown, Slim Jones, Cannonball Redding, Satchel Paige, Leon Day

Catchers (2): T.J. Young, Frank Duncan

Infielders (7): Sammy T. Hughes, Dewey Creacy, Superman Pennington, Dick Lundy, John Beckwith, Home Run Johnson, Bill Monroe

Outfielders (3): Cool Papa Bell, Jelly Gardner, Willard Brown

Projected lineup:

Bell, cf
Gardner, rf
Beckwith, dh
Brown, lf
Pennington, 1b
Monroe, 3b
Hughes, 2b
Lundy, ss
Young/Duncan, c

Comments: A truly imposing set of front-line pitchers, with Paige, Jones, Day, Redding and Brown. Catching platoon likely. Pennington is the sole backup outfielder. Lundy, Hughes outstanding defensively, but Johnson is a better hitter than either. Creacy likely to get some DH time.
