Balta1701 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Cal Eldred, who went 10-2 in 20 starts for the White Sox in 2000 (and who followed that up with a series of injury plagued seasons before landing a relief pitching role with the Cardinals) has retired. Thanks for your help with the division in 2000 Cal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punch and Judy Garland Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 fun to read about him in 3 nights in august. Seemed like a great guy. I hope him and his wife enjoy his retirement. He finished on a high note with a great season for playoff team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Oh he was a great guy. Never got his autograph, but I remember him being so sincere to everyone. Cool guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitewashed in '05 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Wow this is a little surprising to me. He had a good year last year too. Good luck to you Cal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AddisonStSox Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Surley he would have caught on if he expressed interest to continue playing baseball and in a year when relievers are getting insane contracts, I'm suprised he packed it up.

Punch and Judy Garland Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Its nice that he retired on his own terms and not because of surgery. hopefully Smoltz will be able to do the same thing in a few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
