Peter Gammons is leaving ESPN following the end of baseball's winter meetings this week.
Gammons, who joined ESPN in 1989 after a distinguished print journalism career with the Boston Globe and Sports Illustrated, has decided to pursue other endeavors.
"My decision to leave ESPN and move on at this point in my life has been conflicted," said Gammons in a statement. "I owe a great deal of my professional life to ESPN, having spent more than half of my 40 years in journalism working for the network, and the choice to move on was made with nothing but the strongest feelings for the people with whom I worked. ESPN gave me a great deal more than I gave it, and will always be a huge part of who I am."
What do you guys think of this move?
I know ESPN has Buster and Tim Kurkjian left, but maybe Gammons was pushed out but they want it to seem he left on his own terms.
