Cole Hamels Retires
1 year agoThe Padres announced left-handed pitcher Cole Hamels has retired. The 39-year-old had an impressive career, going 163-122 with a 3.43 ERA and 2,560 strikeouts in 423 games. He's also a multi-time All-Star and won a World Series MVP with the Phillies in 2008. Unfortunately, although Hamels, who signed a minor league deal with San Diego in February, was working toward a comeback, his various injuries over the last few years proved too challenging to overcome.
