Question : shell script parsing file name

I have a directory where the 3 new log files are dropped everday. The older files are not archived. I need to pull out out these files. The files are named in this order:

abc_posDEF_02292008034556.log
abc_tranDEF_02292008033020.log
abc_balDEF_022920080350126.log

The data time are appended to the filename. The naming convention for the 3 files are the same everyday till DEF_ only thing which changes is the date and time. I need to pull out the 3 files which are dropped latest . I need to do this in a shell script so when I runt the script I need to pull out the files dropped "today" that is on Feb 29. Please advise.
