Take my opinions for whatever you feel they are worth…
They certainly resemble those two players in a way, but I don't believe it is them shown in the photo.
'Marquard' seems to have a widow's peak, which the real Rube didn't. And his nose and ears (and other things) are off.
'Stengel' is further off. Casey's nose was more prominent than that guy's, his ears didn't stick out that much, and the shape of his head is off. More importantly, we are all very familiar with Casey Stengel and when you look at the guy in the pic, you just kinda 'know' it's not him. Capisce?
“I was such a dangerous hitter I even got intentional walks during batting practice.”
