In modern day baseball, teams generally have five starting pitchers, and they take it in turn to start a game every fifth day (hence the phrase rotation). Sometimes, if the schedule pans out, a team can get away with a four man rotation, and in the distant past some teams managed a three man rotation.
The last major league team to have two pitchers 42 or older start 10 or more games was the 1990 Texas Rangers, with Nolan Ryan and Charlie Hough. Bartolo Colon, 43, joins 42-year-old R.A. Dickey as the newest members of the Braves' rotation for next season. AP Photo/Laurence Kesterson.
