#15: Jack Rothrock

Jack Rothrock

I) Jack Rothrock --> '37 Athletics --> Randy Gumpert, Wally Moses

II) Gumpert --> '52 Senators
II) Gumpert --> '52 Red Sox
II) Moses --> '51 Athletics

So far, I don't see any particular benefit of picking one over the other. We'll try both players for a bit.

II) Gumpert - '52 Senators --> Bobo Newsome

Hooray for unusual player names! I remembered Bobo Newsome helped us complete the John Merritt chain. I have my link!

2. Randy Gumpert played for the 1952 Washington Senators with Bobo Newsome.
