| Wakefield opts for retirement: After baffling hitters for 19 seasons with his trademark knuckleball, Boston pitcher Tim Wakefield announced his retirement on Friday. Wakefield, 45, spent the past 17 years with the Red Sox after starting his career in the majors with Pittsburgh in 1992. He compiled a career record of 200-180 and posted a 4.41 ERA as he also pitched out of the bullpen for Boston. Wakefield's 186 wins with the Red Sox are six shy of the team record.

| Fantasy Analysis |
| Wakefield certainly proved his longevity in the majors as he logged 3,226 2/3 career innings between the two teams. His best season came in 1995 -- his first with Boston -- when he marched to a 16-8 record and 2.95 ERA, his lowest mark as a full-time starter. However, Wakefield struggled the past two seasons with an ERA over five in each year and the Red Sox did not offer him a guaranteed role with the club for the upcoming season. Fantasy owners should continue to leave him untouched in all formats during 2012 drafts. (Updated 02/17/2012). |
