Cool Should Piazza retire?

Since Mike Piazza has now been relegated to backup catcher, should he consider retiring at the end of the year?

I really think he should. His best days are long gone.

Re: Should Piazza retire?

I think if he goes to a team and becomes just the DH he should have at least another year or two to be productive. He should forget about catching altogether.

He can't even hold on the DH spot, now.

Yep, the only reason he's catching is so they can keep Cust's bat in the lineup.

Doesn't mean he still can't DH elsewhere (wireless at the Airport is a cool thing... )
