Oddball Collection (aka The Mordecai Brown Collection)
The Mordecai Brown Collection has a certain focus and is subject to change at any time. See if you can identify what's unique about each of these players (except Sadler - that one's a stretch, no pun intended)...............

I'll play!
Hu: Shortest name of an MLB player
Salty: Longest Name
Young: Largest size jersey
Rauch: Longest jersey
Sadler: Smallest size jersey
So coach, how'd I do?

Re: Oddball Collection (aka The Mordecai Brown Collection)
Shortest last name ever, longest last name ever, heaviest player ever, tallest player ever - Yes, we have a winner!
Chin-lung Hu - shortest name ever (now tied with Fu-Te Ni of Detroit)
Saltalamacchia - longest name ever
Walter Young - 322 lbs, heaviest player ever
Jon Rauch - 6'11'', tallest player ever
Sadler - 5'6, shortest recent player I could think of
I would also be interested in jerseys of the following players:
Antonio Alfonseca
Jim Abbott
David Aardsma
and of course, there are the untouchables:
Mordecai Brown
Eddie Gaedel
Pete Gray
If anyone has any additional ideas for my collection, please share your thoughts.

Without doing research, I'll guess oldest - youngest might be Minnie Minoso and Joe Nuxhall.
