Todd Frazier, a two-time All-Star third baseman whose 11-year MLB career included stints with the Yankees and Mets, will announce Tuesday he is retiring from the game at the age of 36.
“It’s been my love my whole life,” Frazier said Monday in a phone interview. “It’s very hard to let go. Don’t get me wrong, it’s one of the toughest decisions I’ve ever made in my life. But where I’m at in my career and where I’m at in my life, I think it was the right decision. I think it’s time to be that family figure that I’ve always wanted to be.”
