Sep 17, 2024; St. Louis, Missouri, USA; St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Lance Lynn (31) reacts as he walks off the field after the sixth inning against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Busch Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jeff Curry-Imagn Images Long-time St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Lance Lynn announced Tuesday that he has retired from Major League Baseball after 13 seasons.
“Baseball season is upon us and I’m right here on the couch and that is where I’m gonna stay,” Lynn said on his wife’s podcast, “Dymin in the Rough.”
“I am officially retiring from baseball right here, right now.”
Lynn, 37, spent much of his career with the Cardinals (2011-17, 2024) but also has pitched for the Minnesota Twins (2018), New York Yankees (2018), Texas Rangers (2019-20), Chicago White Sox (2021-23) and Los Angeles Dodgers (2023).
Last season with the Cardinals, he started 23 games and had a 7-4 record with a 3.84 ERA, throwing 117 1/3 innings and striking out 109.
The two-time All-Star has a career record of 143-99 with a 3.74 ERA in 364 games (340 starts), tossing 2,006 1/3 innings. He ranks sixth in that category, as well as in wins, among active pitchers. Ahead of him in each category are three sure Hall of Famers — Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer and Clayton Kershaw.
Lynn, on Tuesday, made it clear that he may be spotted on the baseball field … just not in a major-league game.
“There might be something a little fun around the corner upcoming weekend, so stayed tuned,” Lynn said. “But from Major League Baseball, I am done pitching.”

Možností bylo víc, ale co jsem chtěl, hledal a představoval si, toho se mi tady dostalo. Proto jsem podepsal s Vítkovicemi. Bylo hodně pozitivních věcí, které mě přilákaly,“ uvedl zkušený hokejista, který se v Ostravě dohodl na víceletém kontraktu.Do Ostravy dorazil na úvodní sraz Vítkovic na přelomu staré a nové sezony. „Znám se asi jen s Jindrou Abdulem, nějaké roky jsme spolu trénovali v Bratislavě a chtěl jsem vidět i další kluky, kteří už tady jsou.

Casagrande elege técnico que prioriza essência do futebol brasileiro: “A escola é assim”
Casagrande, em podcast no YouTube (Reprodução) Casagrande vê o Flamengo destoando do atual “padrão” aplicado no futebol brasileiro. Diante da prioridade máxima estabelecida por Filipe Luís, o time carioca não costuma voltar com a bola em investidas no ataque. Neste cenário, o ímpeto ofensivo aplicado magistralmente pelo técnico é visto como um aspecto cada vez mais esquecido nos jogos da seleção. “Talvez o Flamengo seja o time que menos toca para o lado e para trás. Irrita ver um time que está na entrada da área adversária e vai tocando pro lado, toca pro volante, pro zagueiro e volta para o goleiro. Isso é irritante no futebol brasileiro.”, disse Casão, no UOL News Esporte. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE “O estilo do Filipe Luís é outro. A escola do Flamengo é assim (ofensivo) e a escola da seleção brasileira é assim também. Isso […]
Jay Woodcroft? Manny Malhotra? 9 candidates to be Canucks’ next head coach
Rick Tocchet informed the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday that he will depart the organization after a successful two-and-a-half year stint that saw him accumulate the second best point percentage of any coach in franchise history, while winning the Jack Adams for coach of the year in 2024.Replacing what Tocchet brought in Vancouver won’t be easy, and Canucks management is very much in the early stages of a process to identify a new bench boss that the club sincerely believed wouldn’t be required this summer.Advertisement“We’ll do a shortlist,” said Canucks president of hockey operations Jim Rutherford on Tuesday afternoon. “I’d expect our phones will ring on a regular basis from people who want this job. We’ll narrow it down fairly quick and start the process from there. Up until now, we didn’t talk about it.”As the process begins the Canucks will […]
