Baxter Not Coming Back
Friday, May 1st , 2048
Evan Baxter of the New Orleans Zephyrs has made it official: he will retire from baseball, effective immediately. Baxter had sought a second opinion about a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament. But it only confirmed the earlier diagnosis that put his career in jeopardy. "It made my mind up for me," Baxter said. The 23-year-old expressed his gratitude to the organization for their patience during this ordeal. He also thanked the fans for their continuing support.
Baxter has made 0 starts this season, posting 1 win and no losses. Opposing clubs are batting .184 against him and he has 13 strikeouts in 14 innings with a 2.57 ERA.
