lower left corner...
Looks like Joe Sewell, but the time frame doesn't seem to work then. Sewell played for Cleveland from 1920-1930, and ended his career with the Yankees in 1933. Is it possible some of the Burke stamps pictured retired players?

Got a tip via PM (thanks Dwight) that these are, clockwise from top left: Virgil Trucks, Freddie Fitzsimmons, Doc Cramer and Joe Sewell. So that doubles up on several of the IDs given previously, and I feel comfortable with all four. Thanks for your help guys!
As for the question on the Joe Sewell photo, Burke began photographing players in 1929 but did on occasion reproduce earlier photos by other photographers to add to his catalog of images. These were sometimes noted as reproductions in the stamping on the back, sometimes not. This particular image looks to be from 1927 at the latest judging by the socks.
