“With over $160M in career earnings he can go whenever he wants…”, You messed up.

He still gets paid if he is released and chooses not to sign anywhere as long as he doesnt actually file the paperwork with the MLBPA/MLB since he has 14M next year plus a 4M buyout, so he can just not sign and wait to actually “process” his retirement until the end of next season. He mostly maintained that type of productivity during his time in Colorado when healthy, but that proved a significant caveat.

As for the money, well, he signed an extension offered by the Colorado Rockies. Also I’m not trying to be a jerk but anyone that says ” .269 career hitter = not a hall of famer” in my mind is a simpleton, However I think its adorable that you run to the defense of your boyfriend, That was a poor attempt at an insult. The Yankees were only paying the min salary as part of his Jays salary. Batting average ….really ? or are they trying to spend wisely?

This is about three or four years late.

“Probably really disappointing for a lot of people.

And I’m pretty sure I replied to the wrong comment. The team changed for the better when he, Price and company showed up. Their careers were very similar and Larkin was just as injury prone as Tulo.

“There is no way to truly express my gratitude to the fans of Colorado, Toronto and New York. 2 while wanting to play for the Yankees. Keep that tape of yourself mocking the Blue Jay bench after hitting a home run in the first week of spring training,,,,,a true indicator of your character.

If he is, so is Pedroia. You have indulged in nothing, no offense. You breached first, contract void.

Chase Utley is another guy like this, where at age 30 it felt like “Of course this guy is bound for the HOF).

Blue Jays are on the hook for the balance of his contract since they released him.

The Yankees signed the 34-year-old shortstop Jan. 4 after the Blue Jays cut Tulowitzki in December despite owing him $34 million. I wish that my health had allowed for a different ending to that chapter. ⭐️ 2-time Gold Glove Shortstop Lots of bad contracts out there, Correction: you are right. Larry Walker gets no HOF at 70 career WAR, so even Tulo had a few more 6 WAR seasons it would still be tough for him to get in.

He had all of the talent in the world but unfortunately could not stay off the trainer’s table. Hall of Fame talent for sure. Blue Jays took it on to help reach the postseason and it was worth getting rid of Jose Reyes. “Tulo” racked up five All-Star appearances, two Silver Slugger Awards, two Gold Gloves and a pair of fifth-place NL MVP finishes over his 10 seasons and 1048 games in Rockies purple. THE BEST INSIGHTS FROM THE ULTIMATE INSIDERS, Blue Rush: A NY Giants Podcast reminds me of Nomar. In his prime this guy was one of the absolute best players in the league for a 6 year span.

Being a bigger baseball than basketball fan I think I would rather have been able to see how Tulo’s career would have turned out had his body held up for him than D-Rose. He looked good in spring training, I thought. Thanks for contacting us. While true that most players hit for more power at Coors field, the exception is Larry Walker when during his MVP season he hit 29 of his 49 HR’s AWAY from Coors. Now he is gone. Yeah, I’m wondering the same thing. If so, you don’t see that very often. The melodrama over “I can’t have a serious discussion about batting average” is a total crock. Best of luck to Tulo! Wow when Cashman signed him it was a “ Genius” move according to Yankee Fans.
Good luck in the game going forward. Just lol.

I hav a feeling that if Tulo was never traded and hung on as a bench guy for the Rockies, he would have ended up as a HOFer.

List him with Mantle, Maris, Garciaparra, and the list could be much larger than just adding Tulo. Guys like Prince Fielder, who stick around and don’t “retire” so they can still get their money are definitely the norm. I’m tired of hearing about his delicate condition. He topped 143 regular-season games only once after his rookie year and was regularly dogged by injuries. Just wanted to say Tulowitzki arrived at that point all baseball guys fear: The end of the road.

Maybe a minor league deal. You didn’t want a discussion about batting average, right? Did anyone not see this coming… like in April? Sucks what could of been but it’s an unfortunate part of sports… Reminds me of Brandon Roy… happy retirement Tulo! But most players play a lot better in their home park than on the road . The 34-year-old has been on the Yankees' injured list since the first week of the season with a calf problem and hasn't played in the majors since April 3. I thought he would try until maybe he couldn’t anymore. Since the Yanks are no longer paying him, does it still come off the Jays responsibility? They always made my family and I feel so welcome. The only player I can think of who walked away from money with a retirement was Gil Meche just calling it quits while still owed 12M by KC, although he said he felt it wasnt fair to be paid while not available in the final season of his deal, and while it was a classy move by Gil I would argue that the risk of this outcome was already baked into the price of his deal to begin with and he should have gotten his. Just too many examples of battles between players and the executives. Pedroia should do the same thing Tulo is doing, if Tulo is truly retiring, but I’m skeptical he’ll man up. You imagine him riding out the rest of his career in pretty good shape and making the Hall. I think anytime a player retires we have to ask, was he the greatest right handed shortstop of all time? Adam Ottavino saw Troy Tulowitzki up close when the shortstop... Post was not sent - check your email addresses! Anyhow, thanks for the memories and continue teaching the kids how to play. Tulo is a good lesson for baseball in giving shorter term contracts past 30 yrs old. Your Ad Choices That is a contract. First ballot When He Was Healthy Hall of Famer. Tulowitzki also was limited to 66 games in 2017 due to ankle and hamstring injuries. It seems many ex-players have burned bridges.

Tulo disagreed. He looked at home playing shortstop,’’ Aaron Boone said of Tulowitzki, who the manager explained had an impact on the Yankees’ clubhouse even though he wasn’t around much after spring training. Does he go into the Hall of Fame as a Yankee?

not him, he was too busy celebrating his homerun against the team that let him go because they believed he was done. And again, all subject to bargained parameters. Like most hitters, Tulowitzki enjoyed a boost from playing the bulk of his home games at Coors Field, though his career 118 OPS+ and 119 wRC+ indicate that he was certainly an above-average offensive player full stop.

They still have to pay him the approx. He only had respectable numbers in the thin air of Colorado, had a tough time keeping above the Mendoza line anywhere else. Happy Retirement! I will forever be grateful for every day that I’ve had to live out my dream. To the coaches, training staff and baseball executives who helped me in my career … I am incredibly grateful to all of you. He wore #2 for the majority of his career…. Though Tulowitzki was openly surprised and even dismayed to be leaving his longtime team, Tulowitzki nevertheless helped stabilize Toronto’s shortstop situation as the Jays reached the ALCS in both 2015 and 2016. They always made my family and I feel so welcome. Most of them just aren’t as good as he was when he was healthy. Troy Tulowitzki announced his retirement from baseball Thursday after 13 MLB seasons. Okay, the retirement/released issue was collectively bargained… any contract signed (in this context) is for a specific service, over a set period of time, for a certain agreed upon monetary amount. Colorado traded him to Toronto in July 2015 and he helped the Blue Jays reach the postseason his first two years there, but his numbers never matched his output from his peak years with the Rockies. That said, he went out badly, without any seeming self-awareness.

I’m sure we will see you back in the majors as a coach. One can’t discuss Tulowitzki’s career without mentioning his injury history, as he played more than 130 games just three times over his 13 seasons. None of this would have been possible without the love and support of my family and friends. Under these ‘rules’ retiring ‘breaks’ the contract, as does releasing, its clear under which scenario breaches (release – team, retire – player)… once a team releases a player, they’ve breached, and MLB and the Players have agreed upon what happens next.

Now because he was released he gets to retire and still gets all his money.

I’m pretty sure he’s not leaving any money on the table.

If he would have taken care of himself more, no telling how great he could have been. pic.twitter.com/hPMlSMsOgr.
