Hunter, 40, played 12 years with the Minnesota Twins, including last season. He also had stints with the Los Angeles Angels and Detroit Tigers. Minnesota drafted Hunter in 1993 and his career came full circle as he returned there for his final season. Hunter’s curtain call campaign saw him hit 22 home runs. For his career, he hit .277 and finishes with 353 homers and 1,391 RBIs. He won nine golden gloves for his defense, played in eight postseasons and made five All Star Games.
