Nick Johnson announces retirement from MLB
Nick Johnson - DH - Baltimore Orioles
Jan. 28, 2013 - 6:00 PM ET

Nick Johnson has announced his retirement from baseball.

Johnson, 34, appeared in 38 games with the Orioles last season and was bothered by more wrist problems. The on-base machine will walk away from the game with a .268/.399/.441 batting line over 10 seasons in the majors. We're left to wonder what could have been if injuries didn't get in the way.
