Fantastic question. My first thought was RA Dickey since he's ancient but as a knuckleballer he started his career late in his mid 20's with Texas.

The next most ancient guy I could think of was ...Bartolo Colon?

Colon is who it has to be. Expos traded Grady Sizemore, Brandon Phillips and Cliff Lee to get him. Wonderful trade for the Indians!!!

Correct, Kyle. Another fascinating fact about perhaps the most entertaining player in MLB today.

He weighs enough. Actually, I love bartolo. He is one of the game's gems. I don't think he'll ever retire. Probably have a heart attack on the mound and whatever team he plays for can build a little shrine for him in CF. :D :lol: ;)

It won't be a "little" shrine.
