That is three regulars in one season or the other and three subs. Relying on memory too, I give red links to the major leaguers. --P64 (talk) 23:42, 15 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Going all the way back to 1865 for this team, Wilkins was a regular 1865-1868; Hayhurst a regular 1865-1866 and a sub 1867-1868. There were five more not yet listed regulars and four more subs.

The 1865 team already challenged the Brooklyn Atlantics on even terms but it seems premature to add red links. Wilkins and Hayhurst are the obvious candidates. --P64 (talk) 00:02, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
