Dexter Fowler has announced his retirement
"It's here. I'm hanging up my cleats," Fowler wrote. "Today is one of those moments where you metaphorically step down from your throne with a standing ovation, tip of the cap, and the world stops spinning. I'm mostly proud to look back at my career knowing that I played the game the right way and did my best to make a positive impact beyond the win.
"Before that, he authored a well-traveled, memorable career that spanned over a decade. in the 14th round out of high school in the Atlanta area, Fowler won a bronze medal at the 2008 Olympics and was called up in September of that year. In 2009, he finished eighth in the National League Rookie of the Year voting. His 14 triples in 2010 tied for the league lead, and he retires as the active career leader in that category with 82.
