Update- Found my Angel (Villazon)
In my quest to collect the Long Branch Cubans I thought that Angel Villazon may be impossible. He pitched great for the 1913 team going 20-8 for the pennant winners and then was purchased by Boston (Braves) and had a year or two with the Macon team but never really made it. Also for some reason though he was listed as only 21 when he went 20-8 he seems to have disappeared by the time he turned 24. I don't know if it was an arm injury or just a better job outside baseball. As far as I can tell the only images of Angel are on this poster put out by ICN in 1914- he is the player standing in the zoomed in shot . The image shows him just after his purchase by the Braves in his new uniform. As always would love any additional info on the player or team
