That's why I put "retirement" in quotations.

Damn. He was a monster in his prime. Sucks he couldn't put the health issues behind him and come back as only a power hitter in his later years.
Side note....Who remembers when Toronto was all going nuts because AA wouldn't give him the long term deal?
Re: Prince Fielder set to announce "retirement" after 2nd neck surgery
I own him in my keeper. How's that for shit luck.
Re: Prince Fielder set to announce "retirement" after 2nd neck surgery
That's pretty rough.
It's a tough blow for Fielder though. At this point you just hope he can get back to being healthy enough that it doesn't affect his quality of life long term.

Prince and Cecil hit the same amount of homeruns, now that is weird.. It's also a little bit funny because they don't get along and I'm sure Prince would have loved to have one upped his old man!!
