Maicer Izturis has announced his retirement saying his body could not do it anymore. #bluejays He was in camp as a minor league invitee.

[Governator]

What a s***** way to end his career. He was actually playing well prior to his stair accident, was kind of hoping he'd hang around.

Good night sweet prince. I'm sorry the way his career ended its both painful and embarrassing but hopefully its the last time we give a bench player a 3-year contract. One of the most annoying moves of AA's tenure.

[BTS]

Pretty solid career. Over 900 games, worth about 10 wins. He made the most of a pretty limited set of tools. That's said, I'm happy we don't have to see him again.

[The Cats Ass]

Do you think he'll go into the HOF as a Bluejay?

Maicer Izturis: “I put my heart & my soul & my body into it this year to see how I was going to feel, but my body can’t handle it anymore"

Do you think he'll go into the HOF as a Bluejay?

 

Level of Excellence more then likely. On a serious note he could have been a very good utility IF had the injuries not piled up

[BlueJays]

Do you think he'll go into the HOF as a Bluejay?

Definitely. I can see him as MLB Hall of Fame too.

Lifetime salary: $23,740,332

 

No need to cry for Maicer! It's Saunders who might have to actually get a job once he's exiled from baseball due to injury.

[Krylian]

Can Izturis stick?
