A player counts as current if his most recent season with this club is the latest one on record, so a player who has moved on drops off without anybody tracking transactions. Categories where a bigger number is not something to want — strikeouts at the plate, penalty minutes, interceptions thrown — are kept but sorted to the bottom.
