Is Tris Speaker the youngest? If so, I could think of a few things he's famous/infamous for.

Correct birth year (1888) again but the answer is Merkle.
Speaker is in both the '14 and '15 CJ sets and he is very famous/infamous being part of the second HOF Class (1937)
He is the second oldest of the nine youngest players on the T206 list right behind Gandil (ie there are seven players younger than Speaker).
He was my favorite old time baseball player growing up!

Based solely on the fact that Titus wears the only mustache in the entire set, a look that was popular with the 1800s players, I would have guessed Titus as oldest.

Titus was born in 1876 and yes he does have that 1800's feel with the mustache!
