OT- Prince Fielder plans to retire after this season

[Iceman]

Injuries have taken their toll on him. Especially his neck. He never recovered from it and it has shown with his performance on the field (when he is healthy). Love seeing his swing and his presence on the field. Hopefully he can become closer with his dad now

Fielder is only 32 years old?

 

[GatorAZ]

One of those what-could-have-been careers had he maintained his weight. He's gotta be the fattest position player of his time.

 

[Beaver]

Crazy that him and his Dad will both finish with 319 career home runs.

No kidding. Amazing

This was so hard to watch without getting little choked up
