Omar Vizquel To Retire After Season
After stating last month that he is "51 percent" sure that he will retire,
Blue Jays shortstop Omar Vizquel now seems certain that he will call it a
career after the 2012 season. The 45-year-old told Didier Morais of NESN.com
that he hopes to stay connected to the game after his playing days are
through.
"This will be my last year," Vizquel said in Spanish. "I've enjoyed this game
a lot, but I think it's time to pursue a new career as a coach or manager,
and hopefully I'll get that opportunity in the future."
This season will be the finale of Vizquel's 24-year career, during which he
earned eleven Gold Gloves and three All-Star nods. The shortstop spent time
with the Mariners, Indians, Giants, Rangers, and White Sox throughout his
career, including two World Series appearances with Cleveland.
Baseball-Reference estimates that he has earned roughly $62.5MM dating back
to his 1989 rookie season.
