Who are the best players born on each day of the year? We have a list for every day on the calendar.

Here¡¯s a subjective ranking of the top five for Feb. 10.

1) Lance Berkman (1976)
Part of the Astros' famed "Killer B's" lineup that included Jeff Bagwell and Craig Biggio, Berkman carved out a name for himself with his bat as much as his ability to play all three outfield positions and first base equally well, ending his career with a .991 fielding percentage. Berkman was a six-time All-Star who won NL Comeback Player of the Year honors after finishing among the best on his Cardinals team in home runs, batting average and RBIs the year St. Louis won the World Series. He retired after 15 seasons with a .293/.406/.537 slash line, 366 homers and 1,234 RBIs.

2) Lenny Dykstra (1963)
Colorful post-baseball life aside, "Nails" was as scrappy as they came. A 13th-round MLB Draft pick in 1981, Dykstra broke into the big leagues in '85 and was a leadoff hitter and starting outfielder during the Mets' World Series title run a year later. Toward the end of his 12-year career in 1993, the then-30-year-old led the NL in plate appearances, at-bats, runs scored, hits and walks, claiming a Silver Slugger Award for his efforts.

3) Alex Gordon (1984)
Few Royals players are as beloved as Gordon, who spent his entire 14-year career with Kansas City. A three-time Defensive Player of the Year and a Platinum Gold Glove Award recipient, Gordon prompted general manager Dayton Moore's compliment, "No one has ever played outfield defense like he has. He is without question the standard.¡± With bat in hand and right arm raised high, he'll forever be remembered for slugging the game-tying home run in Game 1 of the 2015 World Series, a battle Kansas City eventually took four games to one over the Mets to claim the Royals' second championship in team history.

4) Herb Pennock (1894)
Pennock is the only Hall of Famer born Feb. 10. The lefty was a key member of the Yankees' pitching staff through three World Series championships (1923, '27, '32) and was on the team, but injured, for a fourth ('28), after also winning rings with the Philadelphia A's ('13) and Red Sox ('15). He pitched for nine teams that won pennants, and when he hung up his spikes after 22 seasons, Hannock had a 5-0 record and 1.95 ERA across 10 World Series games.

5) Hiroki Kuroda (1975)
Kuroda enjoyed an 11-year career in Nippon Professional Baseball in Japan before signing with the Dodgers on Dec. 12, 2007. He took a perfect game into the eighth inning in 2008 as a rookie (settling for a one-hit shutout), and added another complete-game shutout later on that same season. A reliable workhorse throughout his seven seasons in MLB, he made fewer than 31 starts just one time, in '09. Kuroda's best single performance might have been Game 2 of the Yankees' 2012 ALDS against the Tigers, when he took a perfect game into the sixth and struck out 11.

Others of note:

Edith Houghton (1912): Houghton was MLB's first female scout, working for the Phillies from 1946-52, but her playing career before that was just as impressive. Houghton began playing professionally at age 10 (that's not a typo), when she starred at shortstop for the Philadelphia Bobbies, a semipro women's baseball team that was so successful stateside that it even traveled to and played a short tour in Japan, where the Bobbies drew large crowds.

Max Kepler (1993): Kepler debuted in late September 2015, and just five seasons later, he'd already claimed the title of most MLB homers hit by a German-born player. (We'll assume that list isn't terribly long, but it's still a cool stat.) Riffing off that, Kepler was also the first European-born player to hit three home runs in a game, a feat he accomplished with the Twins on Aug. 1, 2016.

Liam Hendriks (1989): The Aussie earned the AL Reliever of the Year Award in 2020 and '21. He really seemed to step into his own beginning in his age-32 season, and from 2019-21, the righty collected 77 saves and pitched to a 2.08 ERA across 168 games for the Athletics and White Sox. Hendriks inspired fans and earned the American League Comeback Player of the Year Award in 2023 when he returned to the mound after battling non-Hodgkin¡¯s lymphoma, which sidelined him at the start of the season.

Brandon Woodruff (1993): Woodruff is a two-time All-Star who spent his first seven seasons with the Brewers. He had a pretty great introduction to playoff baseball in 2018, tossing three scoreless frames in Game 1 of the NLDS against the Rockies, then homering against Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw in Game 1 of the NLCS. Woodruff posted a career-high 13 wins for Milwaukee in '22.

Travis d'Arnaud (1989):
After spending the first seven seasons of his career with the Mets, Dodgers and Rays, the catcher has flourished since joining the Braves in 2020, as he won a Silver Slugger Award in '20, helped Atlanta to a World Series championship in '22 and was named an All-Star in '23.
