Ian Kinsler Retires One-Hit Short Of 2,000 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Dec 21, 2019 6:18 am

Ian Kinsler is retiring after a 14-year major league career, he announced Friday.

Kinsler, 37, told The Athletic that a herniated cervical disk that ended his 2019 season in August played a factor in his decision to retire. He ends his career one hit shy of 2,000, with 257 home runs, 909 RBIs and 243 stolen bases.

\"My pride wouldn\'t let me go halfway at something that I\'ve been doing at 100% for my whole baseball life,\" the veteran second baseman said.
