By FRANK F.CK AP N'ewsfeatures Sports F.ditor When two teams enter into a baseball deal involving the trad ing of veteran players the quotes from the opposite side of the fenee iisually run like this: "It's a deal that will help both j ?lubs." That's what was said in mid-I Tune when the New \ork Giants uui the St Louis Cardinals wrapped eight players. In St, Louis, fails and writers, r.ere peeved when the Red Birds ,ent popular Red Schoendienst to he Giants. In turn. Giant fans were peeved because Schoendienst look a month to recover from an tiling mil. Bill Sarni, a catcher, is the first bright spot in the deal for the Giants The Cardinals are happy with Alyin Dark. ex-C.iant. at short. However, nobody would suspect that the deal helped both clubs j by a look at the National League standings. It takes time?maybe several years?for a deal to jell. Maybe rookie Jack Brandt, ob tained by the Giants, will be the best player in ttie long run. It's too early to tell how much the Giants will miss Dark. They only now begin to miss Sal Maglie who 011 July 31. 1955 was sold to Cleveland on waivers. The price was less than $20,000. The Barber during the first three months of 1955. won nine games for the Giants. Nobody has taken up the slack, and this season those nine Maglie wins would put the Giants back in pennant contention The Cardinals, too. might he leading the league but for a trade which sent Brooks LawTence to Cincinnati for Jackie t ollum. At the All-Star break Lawrence had , a 12-0 record and Cincinnati was in first place Probably another good deal of last winter was one favoring the 1 Brooklyn Dodgers when they ob tained third baseman Randy Jack- i son from the Chicago Cubs for Don Hoak. When the Dodgers hogged down. Jackson took over the No. 4 hatting spot for 1955 s most valuable player Roy C ant panella. and what's more he pro duced. In the American League, Detroit only now is realizing the fruits of a Boston deal made May j 11. 1955 for Charlie Maxwell. The outfielder was obtained for the S10 000 waiver price and hit 300 -or the first half of the campaign Net the Tigers appear to need more than Maxwell's hitting for a first division finish. Nobody could blame Cleveland for trading Ray Boone to Detroit in 1953. Cleveland fans just about booed Boone out of their park N el in three seasons with Detroit he has hit 26. 20 and 20 homers. , hatting between 284 and 29(> with 116 runs hatted in for 1955 to tie for the league crown Often you will find (lie second division clubs making the worst deals Take the Washington Sena tors, for example Probably the ooorest deal they ever made sent Early Wvnn to Cleveland in 1948 In the last six years Wvnn has totaled 118 wins?elose to 20 a season ?for the Indians, Detroit failed to wait for Hilly Pierre to develop. Tliev obtained left-handed hitting catcher Aaron Robinson from the Whit" Sox for Pierce Rohhy is out of the majors and Pierce is the league's earned run champion. The first year of that Chicago got stuck, for Pierre vns 7-13 In 194!i But after that he was a consistent winner fJight now it look- like- the Yankees got stlick with Mickey McDermott. obtained from Wash ington over the winter for a flock of good young talent Mae was only 2-4 at the All-Star break Hut it wouldn't be surprising to see Mae win his share of games later on At first look. Boston Cot first base help in Mickey Vernon but missed out on pitching help in the winter's big package deal with Washington Bob Porterfield looked like a cinch to help Boston vet with the season half over he showed a 2-8 record with a 6 16 earned run record for his first 73 innings Both Cleveland manager A1 Lopez and White Sox pilot Marty Marion insist each outslicked the other in the deal which sent Larry Doby from the Indians to Chicago for Chloo Carrasquel and Jim Busby. But only time will tell, for the jury is still out on thai trade. It takes tin* for deals to jell. Rome wasn't built in a day, or in a year; neither was a major league pennant winner.
