3 years agoFree-agent first baseman Adrian Gonzalez has decided to retire from professional baseball. The 39-year-old hasn't appeared in an MLB game since 2018 with the New York Mets. He was a former first overall selection by the San Diego Padres in 2000. Gonzalez was a five-time All-Star and a four-time Gold Glove winner. He slashed .287/.358/.485 with 317 home runs, 1,202 RBI in over 15 seasons since his MLB debut in 2004. Gonzalez made the announcement on his personal Instagram account, so it appears the left slugger is ready to step away from the game of baseball.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
