1. about 350 or so each team carries anywhere from 10-13 sometimes 14 or 15
2. Cant say exactly, and the number can change throughout the season, as players get injured, sent down, and called up. I think that typically, big league teams carry 11 pitchers on the roster [sometime 12], so a good approximate # would be 30 teams X 11 pitchers =330, give or take.
3. This varies due to call-ups from the minors, injuries, etc. I checked a couple of rosters and they each had 12 pithers on the active list and there's 30 teams ---- so about 360, give or take
4. about 330-350
