Follow up. There have only been 60 players since 1920 that have had more than 400 PA in a season at age 39 or older. That is in 82 seasons so it is less than on per season. MTW, it looks like it is very likely that you will have seasons without a starter age 39 or older. I was actually surprised by this. On the other end of the scale there were 88 players that started at age 21 or younger. About 1 per season. If I move the number to 22 or younger the number jumps to 215 or roughly three per season. I will get the pitchers sometime.
