Minor League Baseball Players
In this thread we will collect and track the 200,000+ players who have appeared in a minor league baseball game. SABR has graciously provided a database with over 500,000 roster listings, so for those interested in particular leagues we can parse out a listing of those players as well.
Thanks to SABR for providing the data that launched this project, and thanks to all who share! |

Starting things off with my favorite player, here is Lerian with the 1922 York Accos, whose roster transferred essentially intact to the 1923 White Roses.

I remember several years back I had a beckett alphabetical price guide. It included minor league cards and the first player listed was Brady Aalbers so I had to find him first. Couldn't find a baseball pic but here he is pictured as a school teacher now in Iowa.
He played in the Reds chain in 1998 |

okay, so I thought I would pick a starting place and just go with it. So I randomly picked 1985 and I am starting with AAA players from that season who never reached the majors.
Here are the players from the Columbus Clippers Kelly Faulk, Johnny Hawkins, Tim Knight |

I collect Oilers photos as well as Yankees. I'll post all I've got so far today. I'm particularly interested in the 1960-1964 teams and am trying to find scans of this 1960 card set. I'd appreciate any help.

Even when these were first released I couldn't understand why they would waste cards on batboys. They could have made cards of Bill Bethea, Dick Hughes, Larry Jaster, George Kernek, Coco Laboy, Cal Neeman, Ed Spiezio, Bill Wakefield & Ray Washburn instead.

Any 30's-40's Appreciated
Any 1930's and 40's Minor league players much appreciated-especially one's that never made the Majors (I use Spritze DB-some players have no photo)
Thanks Gil The Ancient One |
1910 Southern Association I
5 Attachment(s)
Also selecting a random starting point, here are the non-Major Leaguers who played in the Southern Association in 1910. Southern Association teams included:
Atlanta Crackers Birmingham Barons Chattanooga Lookouts Memphis Turtles Mobile Sea Gulls Montgomery Climbers Nashville Volunteers New Orleans Pelicans Within my minor league collection there are many players who have the same first and last names. For those players who cannot be differentiated with a middle initial, I include a unique identifier in the image filename and within my posts, for example, 99207fdf (for William McMahon). This is the player's unique SABR ID, and can be seen on the player's Baseball-Reference.com/minors page, directly under the Teams Played For grid. Players in this first group are: Louis J. Bauer, George Bittrolff, Charles B. Brooks, Tom Carson & Joseph A. Collins. |
