Just because of the times and not for lack of talent, Monte Irvin was playing negro league for the Newark Eagles pre-war.
Not a qualifier for a prewar set as there are just team photos and rppcs. I just would hate to leave him out of a list of living players as he started in 38'.
The man was mvp in the negro and Cuban leagues prior to being drafted and serving 3 years in the army during the war.
