Minor League Baseball Players

tnfoto · 01-09-2012, 10:27 AM

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
