AJP retires

[bravesfanforlife88]

Thought there was something weird about tonight's last hit and the hugs

He figured this was a good time to go out since he finally caught a throw at the plate and made a tag.

The one thing I'll always take heat for - he was a great acquisition from the day we landed him (as evidenced by that reaction from his teammates), and I could give two *hits about his numbers - he always did it "right" regardless of what some fans wanted to think.

I loved getting him from Day One, and hope he'll stay involved with the organization on some level.

Wow. DOB now reporting that AJP is NOT retiring

 

[goldfly]

I wish he was retiring and hope AJP is in no way part of this organization either after his retirement or the end of the season

Not sure why AJP would retire with a few weeks left to go unless he was injured.

Finish out the season.

He wants a mini-Chipper retirement tour.

And there it is: #Braves place Pierzynski on 15-day DL with strained hamstring. C Blake Lalli called up from Gwinnett.

A guy like AJ never quits. He has a will of iron. In a different era he might have been Lavrenti Beria.

He's the biggest piece of **** in baseball.

 

[goldfly]

he'll be back

if true

i hope some other organization is dumb enough to let him ruin some young pitchers and do an awful job behind the plate

 

[Anthony J. Pierzynski]

He has the biggest **** in baseball.

FIFY, buddy.
