Angels Centerfielder Torii Hunter turns 35 today.
He is in the middle of the biggest contract ever given a player in Angels history. Later this week he will become the 65th player in Angels history to record 1500 Plate Appearances. His On-Base Percentage Plus Slugging in that time has been and OPS of .850 ... where does that rank in franchise history?
Angels with 1500 PAs and an OPS above .850:
Vladimir Guerrero (.927), Tim Salmon (.884), Jim Edmonds (.856) and Troy Glaus (.854)
Read more about what a great signing this has been for the Angels at my SBNLA article on Torii at mid-contract from earlier this month.

Will Torii ruin his own birthday?

This has been a much better signing..
than I thought it would be. Still expensive, and his defense is getting pretty crappy, but his bat is worth it so far. Color me surprised.

Torii and I appear to share a birthday
Though I wish I could shave off 16 years to match him for the age.
