Hello,

I have a question, I am trying to clean up all my apps I have in iTunes on my mac, I have about 130gb
total apps are about 1,900 mainly because iTunes would download all apps that I would download on my iPhone. so I have tons on apps that I useless. and when I look in the mobile applications folder, I have over 5,000 apps in the folder.

my question is if in iTunes I delete an app, will it delete the older app files that are in the mobile applications folder?

Delete them all, iTunes hasn't used the local storage of apps for a while now. You will probably notice, none of them are "current" if you inspect them. Nothing will happen to the apps on your iOS device(s).
