NL Transaction June 29th
The Brooklyn Dodgers placed 33 year old 8 year veteran Roy Campanella on the disabled list today. Campanella, one of the frontrunners in the MVP race this season, has three broken fingers and is unable to grip a bat. Manager Walter Alston hopes to have his signal caller back in two to four weeks. So far this year Campanella is hitting .329 with 18 homers and 51 RBI. This has been a big bounce back campaign for the Dodger catcher as he hit only .188 with 24 homers and 72 RBI last year.
