  • Otto Adam Neu (September 24, 1894 – September 19, 1932) was a shortstop who played briefly in Major League Baseball during the 1917 season.
  • Listed at 5 ft 11 in (1.80 m), 170 lb., Neu batted and threw right-handed.
  • He was born in Springfield, Ohio. Neu was a major leaguer whose career, statistically speaking, was similar to that of Moonlight Graham.
