@Ken_Rosenthal To be clear: Prince Fielder is not retiring. He is medically disabled and doctors will not clear him to play, sources say.
When a player retires, he effectively renounces the rest of his contract. Fielder is not doing that. Again, the money is guaranteed.

Wonder if Fielder's bellyflop slides contributed to his condition. Each one looked painful.
― Andy K, Wednesday, 10 August 2016 21:52 (seven years ago) link
That is pretty a pretty weird happenstance that the Fielder's both ended up at 319 homers.

That's what happens when you go to play for the Mariners.

@jcrasnickJonny Gomes is planning to play in 2017. "I've got some more pull homers in the tank," he says. He turned 36 in November.
never mind!

Considering CJ Wilson is retiring to concentrate on his "racing career", I wish him luck on his operation shutdown.
I got to wonder how Derek Bell's turned out so many years later.

22yo david denson, the first affiliated baseball player to come out
probably makes sense; .229/.338/.368 in four minor league seasons is nowhere near good enough for a 1B/DH
