Bruce Levine reporting that he will pitch tomorrow and then retire, and won't pitch in the playoffs.

I have a hard time believing that. He's Hawk's posterboy for TWTW.

I can't rethink my faith in Hawk!

Buehrle. WTF is that. You don't retire until the playoffs are over. What if they want you or need you.

I'm saying this feeling like he is making this decision in spite of what the BJ's want to do.

ah ok.

I took it as he was told he wasn't part of the plan for the playoffs and was retiring.

It is.

He was being left off the Blue Jays playoff roster regardless.

I wonder if he will fulfill a lifelong dream of pitching for his boyhood favorite team St. Louis Cardinals?

I've read/saw countless interviews of him wanting to be involved in the Cardinals Organization before he totally leaves the game in some capacity... player, coach, etc.

So they're leaving a guy with 15 wins and a 3.8 ERA along with a WS ring off their roster? what am I missing here?

He has WS experience closing too. What an odd decision by the Jays.

He did allow 8 runs in 2/3 of an inning today.

He's been bad lately, and Marco Estrada has been good lately.

Probably should have him in the bullpen.

Oh well.

Lol, they wanted to get him 2 innings so he could keep his streak of 200-inning seasons (15 years running), and he only lasted 0.2.
