This makes me sad. Matt Williams always came across as a likeable guy. There was never a lot of bullshit around him; I always got the impression, during the time he was with the Giants, that he showed up, played the game hard, showered and then went home. He and Robbie Thompson were my two favorite players from that era, for precisely that reason � they were both workhorses.

I�m glad that he�s leaving the game of his own volition, more or less. You hate to see a guy try to stick around when it�s obvious to everybody else that he�s long past it. I hope things work out well for him.

Geez, what�s with me today? First it�s hearing loss, and now a retiring ballplayer. I must be feelin� old or something.
