| Grudzielanek calls it a career: Foxsports.com reports 40-year-old second baseman Mark Grudzielanek has decided to retire. I put in all this work but never really thought about what I accomplished Now I look at it, and I was a .290 career hitter for 15 years," he said. "Im very thankful. I was able to stay healthy enough to do that. Now its time to carry onto the next adventure. He last played in 2010 with the Indians, appearing in 30 games while driving in 11 runs and hitting .273. In all, he saw 15 years of big league action, compiling over 2,000 hits while hitting at a career .289 clip. Grudzielanek was an All-Star in 1996 with the Expos, and he won a Gold Glove in 2006 with the Royals. (Updated 02/22/2011) |

| Fantasy Analysis |
| Grudzielanek finishes his career with 90 home runs and 640 RBI. But he did the small, gritty things day-in, day-out that made him a successful player. Its the little things that win ballgames, he said, and thats how I kept my job all those years. He played for six teams over the course of the 15 years, five-plus with the Dodgers -- the longest tenure with any club. Even if he decides to give it another go, Fantasy owners should leave him off of all rosters. (Updated 02/22/2011). |
