One of the best pitcher's in baseball, Johnny Cueto, turned 31 today. Cueto has spent a good part of his career with the Reds. He was acquired by the Royals midway through the 2015 season and helped them with the World Series. The Giants signed him as a free agent last year.
He is a two time All-Star including having the honor of being the 2016 NL starter. In 2014, he was runner up to Clayton Kershaw for the NL Cy Young posting a 20 win season with a 2.25 ERA. Last year with the Giants, he posted an 18-5 record with a 2.79 ERA.
He is clearly one of baseball's premier pitchers and for that he gets the Baseball Birthday Quote of the Day,
"It doesn't matter who's behind the plate when Johnny's pitching, you just sit down and enjoy the ride."
