Baseball-Reference.com, the bible of baseball statistics, is admittedly incomplete and spotty on minor league players' records prior to World War II. This site has taken on the monstrous task of updating those records.
We believe we also have the largest collection, in one place, of minor league player photographs to accompany the players' biography.
We have increased some player's records by over 10 teams that were unrecorded.
We have uncovered and identified many players who did not have a record at all in the archives, thus adding their history to the record.
We have corrected records that were inaccurate. Players who shared a name with another player, brothers who received credit for their brother's statistics, and records that were just completely incorrect.
This blog attempts to get the record closer to correct. Daily we will be adding players' updated information. We have updated over 3,900 player's bios at this point !!!!
We have added to the SABR Biographies where information was missing or inaccurate.
We have been contacted by family members and have helped give them more information about their baseball playing ancestor. Some of the stories have been heartwarming.
Many Major League players' minor league records have been found to have holes in them. This information is plastered all over the internet and it's incorrect. We are trying to correct the historical record.
In order not to convolute the site, references will not be noted, but, are available upon request.
If you wish to have a particular ballplayer researched and added to the site, just contact us at ctstreasurehaven@aol.com and for a donation of your choosing we will add. An enormous amount of time is devoted to making the data correct, any help is appreciated.

My father James Copeland d.o.b. 3-4-1924 was drafted by the Borger Gassers farm/barn-storming team out of Borger, Texas in 1952-1953? He along with Waymon Armstead, Robert Bowden and Jasper Goff whom all played for the Bradenton Nine Devils, out of Bradenton, Florida were all called up at the same time. There was an article that stated four Florida negro's were recruited and i believe they were the four and an article here in the Bradenton Herald also states they were drafted by a team Texas. My father James Copeland and Robert Bowden was sent to another team after there time in Borger Texas, but he and R. Bowden went back home after there stint thereafter being sent to another team. Also, Mr. Waymon Armstead, who is still living and can vouch that the four of them was there together, because i'm not able to find any other documentation at this time. So, i would love to have James Copeland and Robert Bowden added to the Roster for the Borger Gassers. My father (living)is 93yoa and this would be a great honor for him and Robert Bowden to get there recognition. What action can i take to get this corrected?

Lydia,
ReplyDeleteMy site does its best to identify players who played for various minor league teams, but, who did not get mentioned correctly in the records. It does not appear that your father or Mr Bowden actually got into a game for the Gassers in 1953. They may have been signed and even attended camp, but, in an article in the Clovis News Journal from 4/23/1953 which discusses the players on the team, they are not mentioned. Jasper Goff WAS mentioned and he played 2 years with the Gassers. I'm afraid that only players who actually got to play in a regular season game can qualify for the records.
