Seeing that our SS situation was inadequate, we traded Dick Fowler RP and Lew Drill backup catcher for Billy Jurges. With Hunnefield as a backup, we should be okay.

That means the the OF will be Pafko in center, with the other two OF positions being some platoon of Smead Jolley, Garms, Chapman, Magee and young Dave Philley if he turns out to be ready to come up to the majors.

We drafted Red Schoendienst in the first round, and now have a very good 2B.

So our starting lineup figures to be something like this for 1949:

Red Schoendienst 2B
Ben Chapman/Debs Garms, LF/RF
Home Run Baker 3B (we expect him to make a comeback as his RL stats take hold.
Yogi Berra C
Dee Fondy 1B
Lee Magee/Smead Jolley/Dave Philley LF/RF
Andy Pafko CF
SS Billy Jurges
