My team sucks even more... He's not listed in Baseball-reference, yet, but my adoptee would be the only one to make my team any fun.

We've done this before. My team, the October 22ders, win with Jimmie Foxx and Ichiro leading the parade.

I don't even think I can field a complete squadron of birthdaymates. If I'm stuck playing, there had better be a mercy rule.

My team gets Mr. Henry Aaron, Robbie Alomar and precious little else besides 1-time All-Star and City Slickers reference Don Hoak. I learned that I share Feb. 5 with the sometimes-active Abraham Nunez.
