Text | [editorial content] The young players now being so eagerly sought by needy managers do not hold themselves cheaply, and not one has yet signed below the limit, $2,000. This high rate will, of course, have a tendency to force up the salaries of the old players, and, per consequence, the highest salaries ever known in base ball will rule next season. And yet the average attendance does not keep pace with the increase in expenses. Can base ball stand much more of this fierce competition? |
