Mark Loretta To Retire

Reports ESPN.com

Loretta, 39, spent 15 seasons in the bigs, spending time with Milwaukee, Houston, San Diego, Boston, and most recently the Dodgers.

Loretta, if he does in fact retire, finishes his career with a .360 OBP and .395 SLG % (.755 OPS), pretty good, in terms of OBP, for an otherwise average player. His OBP is surprisingly high to me, considering how atrocious he was at the beginning and end of his career.

Thankfully this means the end of the Dodgers wasting plate appearances on him. Now they can go to Angel Berroa!
