How many starting pitchers long relievers mid-relievers setup pitchers and closers must a team have in a roster of let's say 13-15 men?

There's not a specific limit to each of these; in fact, there's not even an official designation on starters, relievers, and closers. A player can start a game one day and pitch in relief the next. (A famous example of this is Randy Johnson, who won two games as the starter and a third in relief in the 2001 World Series.) Usually, teams have a rotation of five starting pitchers, with one being their "ace" (their best pitcher, first in the rotation). Again, usually, teams designate one of their relievers as a "set-up man" to pitch the eighth inning and a "closer" to pitch the ninth inning. It should also be noted that a team doesn't even have a mandatory pitcher limit; they could technically have no pitchers on their rosters and have position players pitch. (Obviously that's a terrible strategy.)
