The Yankees star told ESPN.com that he will hang up his cleats after the 2017 season when his contract with the team runs out.

Hall of Fame someday?

[Red Badger]

Dancing with the Stars here he comes!...................

[Dahoser]

Of course after next year. 2017 runs out the last $20 million on his contract.

[doorgunner69]

Retire from what?

Oh, bazeball............

[Vendome]

He can start his new career as a spokesman for Valtrex...

Steroid Hall of Fame?

[Jack Straw from Wichita]

He definitely can reach Ruth’s 714. Aaron’s 755 and Bond’s 762 are likely out of his reach.

[Donglalinger]

Nope, no steroids will get in

Sticking it to the Yankees, I love it

[Dilbert San Diego]

Yep, I thought his contract ends after the 2017 season anyway. So he’s just saying he plays out his contract then he’s done. Why is this even news?

Or does he want to avoid potential embarrassment of being a free agent after 2017 and getting no offers????

Nope, no steroids will get in

Are you talking about known steroid? Because I'm pretty sure they didn't out all of them.

My favorite bumper sticker seen when I lived in New England - "I (heart) NY. It's the Yankees I hate!"

[henkster]

I hope the BBWA blackballs him like they have the ‘roid players like McGwire, Sosa and Bonds.

[Donglalinger]

No Bond,Clemons,Sosa or Mcgwire for sure

[Starstruck]

No Bond,Clemons,Sosa or Mcgwire for sure

Eventually some Old Timer Committee will vote them in. They have already trashed the Hall with guys who's stats say they shouldn't be in.

[Jack Hammer]

Roger Clemens retired, too - until the money was dangled in front of him.

No matter who you are, the Big Dough is tough to resist.

[discostu]

He’s a ‘roider, unless there’s a drastic change in the culture of the voters no HOF for him.

[Vermont Lt]

It’s too bad Clemons got wrapped up in this. He was a shoe in from when he was younger. His workouts were legendary. I saw him pitch in Fenway a bunch of times. At the time he was an animal.

They turn to the roads after injury. The same with HGH and Manning. But they brushed that under the rug if he retired.

He's now dating the ex-wife of Google founder Sergey Brin..she's worth a few billion..give or take...

The guy's planning ahead....marry her, then buy the Yankees in a few years..
