Tim Stoddard only pitched one season for the Cubs, but it just happened to be their division-winning season of 1984. He was the primary setup mustache for Lee Smith that year, saving seven games and winning ten in 58 appearances. After the season he was granted his free agency, and signed with the team that beat the Cubs in the playoffs, the San Diego Padres.
This week he celebrates his 55th birthday.

BONUS MUSTACHE:
Brian Dayett
In 1987, he shared the left field job with another great mustache, Rafael Palmeiro. Palmeiro eventually beat him out, so after the season Dayett took his mustache to Japan. He never played in the majors again.
This week he turns 51 years old.
