Roy Oswalt Retires

Roy Oswalt, who was selected to 3 all star games, has retired at age 36. The decision is pretty understandable after Oswalt had a rough 2013 in which he won zero games, lost 5, and posted a miserable 8.63 ERA with the Rockies. But if you go back to his Houston Astro days from 2001-2010, Oswalt was one of the best pitchers in baseball. He lead the Astros to an NL Pennant in 2005, was a 3-time all-star, and won 20 games in back-to-back seasons. In his 13-year career with Houston, Philadelphia, Texas, and Colorado, Oswalt won 163, lost 102, and had a very good 3.36 ERA.
