Torii Hunter
Torii Hunter is nearly 40-years-old, 39 to be exact. While the former Golden Glove winner is no longer in his prime, he still hit .286 and had 17 home runs. He also had 83 RBI. When asked about his future Hunter had this to say, via DetroitTigers.com:
"“Don’t know what the future holds for me, whether I’m going to play again or get an opportunity to come back to Detroit, I just don’t know,” Hunter said. “Talk it over with my wife. Just tired, tired right now, man.”"
While Hunter’s glove was an issue in 2014, his bat was not. The biggest question in regards to Hunter may be whether or not he will retire and make a move to the television booth for the ’15 season?
PREDICTION: If Torii Hunter ends up retiring, Fox Sports will sign him as an MLB analyst.

I would absolutely bring back Torii Hunter. If he were the third person in the booth with Rod and Mario.
