He said he wants to take a break from baseball and that he would make an announcement around the all star break.

Hey, are you Polish? Oh this is so exciting, somebody accually wants to know sth about him! You know, I think he just stopped playing, in 1988. Then he was a coach and a manager. I can't find any better answer. Take care!

At 38, he's approaching it, if not there yet. Too bad he suffered all those injuries in his career. He could have been a great ballplayer. With 538 HRs, he'll most likely get voted into the Hall of Fame. Not on the first ballot, however. Chances are, he might last for another five years, if he agrees to be traded to the AL to DH.

He had a painful bone spur in his heel that plagued him during the last years of his career.  I don't know of anything else, but I think the bone spur hastened his retirement in '51.

Don't drop Clemens unless you really really need the pitching help right now. Clemens is guaranteed to pitch again this year (Astros, Rangers, Red Sox or Yanks), and Clemens being Clemens, will put up very good stats. (Ks, ERA, WHIP, etc.)\n\nRobertson plays with the Tigers. Although they are good now, nobody knows how long this may last as these are the tigers. So taking Robertson is a HUGE risk. There must be better pitchers out there than him.

He went to spring training this year with the Brewers trying to make the team. By the end of February, it became apparent it wasn't going to happen. He announced his retirement 2/25/06.

NO  I do not think Barry has ever been suspended nor found guilty of any illegal substances in his body. I will guarantee you he has to pee in the bottle at regular intervals. The steroid use is only rumor and has never been proven as fact. By the way, why is it only star hitters are being accused. Did both Nolan Ryan and Roger Clemens find the fountain of youth in their 40"s or was it in a needle?

I think he has proved the devalue of a part time starter.  I suppose he has earned that right considering his incredible stature as maybe one of the 5 greatest pitchers ever to play the game.  But the reality is that any team competing for a world championship needs more.  A blue chip pitcher in his prime who can give a team 35  to 40 quality starts.  Frankly Clemens is not worth that kind of money anymore.\n\nHe needs to retire from the game, not the game retire from him.  And that my friend is just about to happen.  Cooperstown awaits and I for one will be there to honor his incredible career.

Bob Gibson.  1.12 ERA who has ever had that, not Clemens. Did they ever alter the mound because of Clemens, I dont think So.\n\nNolan Ryan 5,714 strikeouts, rocket wont even get 5,000\n7 no hitters, rocket does'nt have half that.  \n\nNolan only has 1 world series championship, but he played for the angels, astros, and rangers when none of them were contenders, and still emassed all those wins and stats.\n\nRocket shops for the teams that will win, and sits out on road trips, and half the season.\n\nI think that no question Nolan is the best living pitcher.

No one can be replaced with Roger now . He is supreb . And proved his brilliance . He is improving in each match . He is absolutely brilliant in grass as well as hard courts . He is hardworking . He has to improve a lot on clay . I think he is improving a lot in this clay court season. Hope he will show his ability and talent once again in this comming French Open 2006 ... And will prove he is a legand of tennis ...

"Big Mac", a/k/a Mark McGwire, has been retired for a few years now. So I doubt it.

Clemens will probably be selected to the Hall of Fame with the highest percentage of votes ever. Seven Cy Young awards says it all.\n\nNo, he's not hurting his legacy at all, especially since he's still a dominant figure while he's out on the mound (even though he only goes 6 innings at the most)...\n\nEven if he was hurting his legacy, what right does anyone else have to tell him not to?  It's his life, it's his legacy, isn't it?  None of us lose anything by having him pitch as long as he has.\n\nI saw Willie Mays hit a home run when he was playing for the Mets in 1972...it didn't matter to me that he was 41 years old at the time, and a mere shadow of his former self... hey, I saw the great Willie Mays hit a home run...  Clemens is a far better player since turning 40 than Mays was (Mays actually had an excellent year at 40, but slipped badly as a 41 and a 42 year old)... but it doesn't matter...he has long since been a shoo-in to be a first ballot Hall of Famer... the fact that he's pitching so great at his age simply means that he will approach or exceed Nolan Ryan and Tom Seaver's vote percentages, in my opinion.

Bernie is a Yankee!!   Mickey Mantle, Don Mattingly, Whitey Ford, Joe DiMaggio, were Yankees and only Yankees.  Bernie is on a very special list of players to wear only Yankees pin strips.  Even Yogi Berra can't say that as he played briefly with the Mets before retiring.  If the Yankees offer him a contract, good, if not retire.  My only concern would be that in my humble opinion Bernie would need 300 career home runs and 2500 career hits to give him a real shot at the Hall of Fame.  Right now he is just short on both counts.  With 4 world series rings and 6 AL pennants and a batting title he still might make it.

I have to say it's still Roger Maris. After it turned out that everybody who passed him were known steriod users at the time they broke the record I think they should be stripped of the record.

Good question.   Should he retire, I dont see a reason for him to retire unless Green Bay goes into a rebuilding phase.  If they do, I believe its time... he almost retired last year, but onoly returned because he thought B+GB had a chance to go to teh Super Bowl.. there is no change for them next season.   Good Bye Brett... loved how you played the game.
