Am currently looking at the top 100 hitters in the league. I just simmed the entire 2012 mlb season using default settings here is what i found.

Average age of top 105 hitters = 29.09
Median = 29
avg age of top 10 = 27.6
20= 28.2
30= 28.43333
40 = 28.625
50 = 29
60 = 29
70 = 29.4
80 = 29.4375


I can agree with all of this obviously right now. 29 would be the prime year of hitters in general and i have no problem with the top 10-20 being in the 27-28 range.

Am currently performing a sim 10 years into the future. Be ready for age to drop off by 2-3 years IMO.
