4/3/1979—Off day in both leagues

MANAGER’S JOURNAL
Heading to Pittsburgh for 3 games—their home opener. Not looking forward to that because the word is, those guys can hit. Glad to leave Houston, wish we didn’t have to come back in July/August—might be unbearable. Still no idea what kind of team I’ve got, but that is the same with all of the managers/GM’s. Nat [Nathanael Ducayne, Houston’s manager] said the Summit is the team he has known the least. Rumors are swirling that our commissioner and the NAL’s commish are meeting to work out an “understanding” between the leagues. I think the GM’s are the ones pushing for this—hard to trade with only 5 other teams in the league. League sent out a directive that all players are to be paid with certified funds—don’t want a “missed payroll” scandal right now. Of course, front office and my staff might have to wait for our cash.
