Nomar Could Retire (Boo)

It's too bad that Nomar Garciaparra is pondering retirement. Ken Rosenthal tells us that the Oakland A's are the only team interested in signing him. He would end his career on a better note if he could play one more injury-free season. Plus, if he signs with an American League team, he will (finally) get to play at Fenway Park one more time and get a well deserved ovation. The A's play at Fenway July 6th. Standing room tickets are still available for $25/$20.

On the subject of former Red Sox:

What is Manny thinking? He turned down a two-year $45 million offer from the Dodgers today. He is just waiting for spring training to end so he doesn't have to go.

Trot Nixon may play for the Milwaukee Brewers in 2009 if he can make the roster.
