But if you mean retired players, it wouldn't be a bad idea, since when the HOF opened in 1939, only living HOF'ers were there... There's a picture of them in the HOF and on their website, and I considered using it and renaming the players who I thought they should be in TWB....
Well let's just say we live in Utopia and Ray Chapman sort of incidents didn't happen (besides the fictional guy you lobbed)

Although I did miss having "Nasty" Ned Fargo or Prof Nagel get struck by lightining

Dark Horse Allen is getting up there in age...then I can keep track of the Black Sox 8...Brackey dying of a broken heart of course.
