Every year since 1998 I've been keeping track of team's "core ages", which I classify as their keeper list plus their 1st or 1st & 2nd round picks. Below is this year's edition, also showing the last 5 years worth of data. The 2nd year of a rebuilding Olympia Rainiers take over the youngest core title, jumping up 1 spot to #1. The Pirates aged a year but kept their core intact, still a youthful 26.5 years of age. The Thunder shave off a year and jump up 6 spots, while the Rock and Arthropods bounce around the median, dropping 7 spots while adding less than a year to each of their cores. The Termites continue to go with the veteran presence, holding onto the oldest core for the 3rd year in a row.
