The Oldest Living Major League Baseball Players
The 500 oldest living baseball players appears below in order from oldest to youngest. Baseball Almanac has always taken biographical baseball research seriously and this list of the oldest living Major League players is updated immediately upon confirmation of a player's passing.
"Gil Coan was the most promising rookie ever to arrive on the Washington baseball scene! Unfortunately, he was never able to realize the high expectations held for him.
Joe Engel
, the Senators' chief scout who discovered so many great ballplayers declared, unequivocally, that Coan was the best of them all. To put this high praise in perspective,
Goose Goslin
,
Sam Rice
,
Bucky Harris
,
Ossie Bluege
,
Joe Judge
,
Fred Marberry
and
Earl McNeely
were all dispatched to the Senators on
Engel's
recommendation and formed the nucleus of the Nats' 1924 and 1925 championship teams." - Author C. Norman Willis in
Washington Senators All-Time Greats
