Default Defining "Vintage"

Posted By: Mike (18colt)

Which major leaguer debuted in the majors the earliest? If Rickey Henderson gets another shot and leaves Newark for the majors, then we're looking at what, 1979? Perhaps vintage could be defined as everything before the earliest year an active major leaguer began his career? Thus, if it were Henderson as the barometer, vintage would be before 1979?

Personally, though, I think if you go back 2 generations before you, it's "vintage".

Just my 2 cents.
