Orphans Off to Slow Start, Trade Away Starting 3B

CHICAGO, IL. April 27, 1912 - In a shocking move, Chicago Orphans owner Jack O'Connor has reacted to his teams slow start by selling his top hitter Curtis Caton to the New York Gothams.

While the Orphans certainly are off to a bad start at 7-16, it is still very early to sell off a twenty-eight-year-old third baseman who still has many, many years of quality play ahead of him. Fans are calling the move a "purely financial" one and have quickly started to question their team's owner and his desire to win.

O'Connor immediately fired back, stating that the move was good for the team.
