Using Keith O's players and with A Rod as the next player in the succession, you can get from Anson to 2016 in 7 players.
Cap Anson (1871-1897)
Honus Wagner (1897-1917)
Rogers Hornsby (1915-1937)
Bob Feller (1936-1956)
Brooks Robinson (1955-1977)
Eddie Murray (1977-1997)
A Rod (1994-2016)
If Hornsby had just played a few games in 1938, you could then use Enos Slaughter to get to 1959, Jim Kaat to get to 1983, and Julio Franco to get to 2007, which would give you a lot of options for current players and you would have it done in 7 with room to go.
