This is only Cotton Pippen's third year in the major leagues. He has had a trial with the St. Louis Cardinals and spent last year with the Philadelphia Athletics and the Tigers, who picked him up via the waiver route in September. Pippen's major league record is far from impressive but he showed plenty of stuff in the minors with Sacramento, and Del Baker, manager of the Tigers, believes that the Texan may come through for him. Pippen's chief asset as a pitcher is control.
Bobby's Big League debut with the A's in 1949 was a sparkling one. He came in to relieve in the 3rd inning and pitched 9 straight no-hit, no-run innings against Detroit. Although he's the smallest pitcher in the majors, his '51 record, including 3 Shutouts, indicates his ability to win. One of the best-fielding pitchers in the game, Bobby had 6-8 and 8-14 marks with the A's in '49 and '50. In '48 at Sioux City, he won 18 and led the Western League in Strikeouts with 212.
The hard-hitting outfielder led the Twins in homers last year. He finished in a 2nd place tie with Ted Uhlaender in RBIs. Bob was A.L. Rookie of the Year in '59.
