You shouldn't be seeing that many players have such long careers, so I would definitely look at your settings closely.
In addition to having players retire according to history, you can adjust some of the development engine's settings for age factors. You can have the development engine cause older players to decline more rapidly and significantly. But if you're using recalculation, that will override the game's development engine anyway. If you're not already doing so, maybe you should try turning off recalculation and just let the game engine determine players' ratings over time.
If you decide to keep using recalculation, keep in mind that, if you're playing games from the early decades of baseball, it was more common for players in their late 30s and early 40s to keep playing at a respectable or sometimes star level. So, if their real-life stats are good during those years and you're using recalculation, they're going to keep producing good numbers.
