Yeah, players live forever. I just loaded up a game and unretired a 124 year old Babe Ruth. Heck, he still has a 40 rating in RF. Stick his corpse out there with a glove on it and he'll catch a few balls. And he'd still probably hit better than Chris Davis.
This makes me think what about player-owners? Too bad Derek Jeter isn't listed as the Marlins owner. If he was, he could die in game as an owner, and then you could unretire his player ID afterwards. The ghost of Jeter playing.. very spooky.
