Winning percentage after 30

[timconnelly]

Did you know that Randy Johnson was #1 on the list of pitchers in the modern game era for winning percentage after 30? The Yankees once had a staff with Raschi, Reynold, Lopat, and Ford. Maybe Whitey learned a lot from hanging out with those old codgers. And there are Maddux and Glavine together: They get my vote for being the best combo of all time for a sustained # of years.

There's something to be said for having a vet staff.
