Semi-quick Simmed through the '60 season (stayed as GM/let bench coach set lineups) and players unretired again.

One difference was the minor leagues evolved on the first day of the offseason, not a week or two afterwards. Might relate to when the minor league season are complete. In '59, the American Association playoffs lasted until late October.

First image is the e-mail I received about Musial retiring.

Second is the image of my DFA area.

Both images are from the same day, October 14.

My working theory (not sure if I shared it here or elsewhere) is that the database checks for players missing and then reimports them, but doesn't check the retired players list/database. But I don't know the ins and outs of the mechanics of the game. Just a theory.

Hope this helps!
