Seeing that Torii Hunter retired got me thinking, who will be the last active player with a pre-2000 rookie card? It won't be for several years, but we can still speculate now. A few possibilities:
R.A. Dickey, 1997 - Throws the knuckleball, could pitch practically forever but he's already 40
C.C. Sabathia, 1999 - Only 35, but has not been good the last 3 years
Matt Holliday, 1999 - Also only 35, still a good hitter but declining
Josh Hamilton, 1999 - Only 34, but he hasn't been very good the last 3 seasons and he's got injury and other issues
Carl Crawford, 1999 - Only 34, but no way
Of course it will probably be some boring middle-reliever. Any other guesses?
