Default Cienfuegos Club Snapshot Identification Help

Wondering if any Cuban Baseball experts can help me out in identifying the Cienfuegos Club players in this photo from ~ 1946. Tried doing some research myself, but haven't had much luck.

I have no idea who the guy standing second from the right is, but I'm pretty sure Martin Dihigo and Silvio Garcia both played for Almendares in 1946.

My guess assuming this the 1946-47 Squad

Top Left: Danny Gardell

Second from Left: Stan Breard?

Second from Right: Conrado Perez

Far Right: Pedro Pages

Kneeling: Vinicio Garcia

Dihigo played from Cienfuegos in 45-46 and 46-47 (I believe this was his final season in the Cuban Winter league.) The OP referred to "1946", but the league usually ran from September to February so the seasons are common referred to in the way of "45-46" etc. Silvio Garcia played for Cienfuegos in 45-46, but I don't believe he played in the league in 46-47. The 46-47 Almendares squad is the famous Max Lanier led squad that featured Buck O'Neil.

Thanks for the follow up everyone! This information is great. It was a recent pick up from RMY. I just loved the image without even knowing who the players were and wanted to try and find out more.
