Other notables --
Ted Williams 1.081 OPS/3758 H/717 HR/2379 RBI
Ty Cobb .881/4537/126/1962
Lou Gehrig 1.054/3669/564/2077
Mantle 1.019/2491/643/1599
Mays 1.048/2647/723/1834

Mantle and Mays are both 35 and still active. Cobb hit .341 in his last full season, at age 45.

The pitching stars so far are 40 year old Satchel Paige -- 374-153, 2.11 ERA, 4753 SO, 61 SHO, 0.93 WHIP -- and Red Ruffing -- 449-222, 2.82 ERA, 4672 SO, 70 SHO, 1.12 WHIP
holy crap! 1,000+ career homers and only 2758 RBI's, and almost a third of his hits are homers. Crazy.
