Which one is the oldest? Which one will be the most productive player in the DBS prior to their passing in real life?

I should have gotten Doerr.
Had no clue Buddy Lewis was still alive, though it makes sense - he was a full-time MLB player at the age of 19.
I'll take Feller out of that group as who I think will be most productive in the DBS prior to his passing.
Crazy fact that probably only interests me...
Bob Feller was born only 3 months before Jackie Robinson, but made his MLB debut 11 seasons before Jackie.

Blame it on some silly made up disease like diabetes. The next thing you are going to say is something silly like Robinson was black.

He wasn't black. He was African American, just like Charlize Theron and Anwar Sadat.

Was that even a term back in the day? I suppose with your thinking that some German Ruler named Hitler spoke of some Aryan race.
