Minor league home run leaders

[Cowtipper]

How long is the list of players who have hit 200 or more home runs in the minor leagues (including independent leagues, excluding Mexican League)? I have a new TTM autograph project, and what I want to do is send requests out to the guys who have more than 200 career minor league home runs.

Thanks!

-Buzz Arlett (deceased, nearly impossible to find his autograph...I've looked)
-Ray Perry (Same as Arlett)
-Smead Jolley (deceased, autograph is easy to find, though)
-Ernie Young
-Scott McClain
-Steve Balboni
-Mike Hessman
-Rick Lancellotti
-Jim Gentile
-Dick Stuart
-Ike Boone (Same as Arlett)

Pancho Herrera cleared 200 outside the Mexican League, though his total of 321 includes Mexican League HR's.

There are others, too.

You can add the following to the list:

Mike Coolbaugh
Russell Branyan
Joe Bauman
Jerry Keller
Kit Pellow
Chris Hatcher
J.R. Phillips
Ivan Cruz

"Joe Bauman"

Jeez, how could I forget? However, Joe passed away recently. Although his autograph isn't particularly rare, it is pretty desirable when it appears for sale. Is Bob Crues also over 200 Milb HR?

Yes, Crues hit 232 dingers.

I've uncovered some more by the way:

Jimmie McDaniel
Joe Macko
Ray Jablonski
Luke Easter (there's one that I should have known)
Bill McNulty
Mickey Walton
Rocky Nelson
Calvin Pickering
Andy Tracy
Graham Koonce

Ken Guettler, who hit 60 one season. Since passed away (in the 1970's). He should be tough. Also Forrest Kennedy, who passed away in 1998, which may make him a bit easier. Len Tucker is still around, and he had over 200. Try writing him.

Steve Bilko should be on that list
