Only Joe Cronin, manager of the Boston Red Sox, Dizzy Dean and Rogers Hornsljy ever brought more money in the player market. Owner Tom Yawkey shelled out $250,000 and shortstop Lyn Larry to the Washington Senators for Cronin, while the Chicago Cubs paid the Cardinals $200,000 for Hornsby and five players and $187,000 for Dean, who developed a sore arm shortly thereafter which eventually forced his retirement from baseball.
