16 million is a nice chunk of change. Best of luck to Bartlett.

Is this s legit retirement or rest and make a comeback attempt? I don’t remember him getting injured.

Kind of helped the team from themselves with retiring. He really didn’t deserve a roster spot this year. Wonder if he had a set back after being pulled in his rehab assignment.

How old was he? Seems like an odd omission for a story on retirement of a player.

Good thing they DFAed Alex Presley to keep him on the roster.

No hard feelings, but he was a major disappointment in San Diego. However, if he hadn’t been, then Cabrera wouldn’t have gotten a second chance and the Padres would be minus an All-Star SS.

It wasn´t his fault, it was Jed Hoyer who gave up a ransom for him, and gave him a 2 year deal as well.

Not Cody Ransom, more of a King´s Ransom.

Had a couple of really nice years in tampa, especially in 2009. Good luck in retirement 😀

“Though the club has asked him to reconsider…”
They should be thanking him instead! He probably knew it was time, and April is still too cold in Minnesota to sit around on the bench and freeze.
