I've just ran a 2 team league for a few years to get a few retired and there is definitely nothing in the bits I haven't deciphered that looks in the correct format for a date. The player I was looking at retired on the 1st January 2009 so I'd expect to see the following sequence of numbers in those areas 1, 1, 219, 7, 0, 0, 0 but there isn't...

I once toyed with creating a lahman style file set from the data in a game but couldn't find the retired date in the files - I could go through and parse the text files but that's a bit too much processing.
