Kershaw finally hung up the spikes following a dreadful 1960 season. 1-5, 8.20 for the Jackson Browns. The Browns did make it back to the World Series, but lost to the Beaumont Crush 4 games to 1. Kershaw finished his career 222-127, 2.79, 1988 k's, 865 BB, 1.13 WHIP, 95.7 WAR.

Another notable retirement is Matt Holliday. Holliday played 14 seasons in the Southern League. His career batting average was .295. Matt hit 272 home runs, drove in 1141 and score 1128 runs. .295/.385/.472/.856 with a career 45.7 WAR. 5 Silver Slugger awards.

Mike Zunino had his career come to an end at 35, due to a busted knee cap. Zunino was one of the those random debut surprise players you sometime get. 14 seasons, .246/.337/.436/.773 with a career WAR of 41.4. Mike hit 213 home runs and drove in 772 runs. 4 Gold Gloves, 1 Silver Slugger and was a 2 time champion.

Johnny Evers, James Loney and Cesar Geronimo also called it quits.

Cy Young: Carl Hubbell (Birmingham) 21-9, 2.57, 9.2 WAR
MVP: Vada Pinson (Jackson) .320/.385/.558/ 28 HR 8.9 WAR.
Rookie of the Year: Devon White (Birmingham) .302/.340/.473, 27 HR 3.4 War.

The Southern League now has 3 players with 300+ home runs. Duke Snider 333, Jose Bautista 309 (retired) and Dale Murphy 309. Jim Rice is closing in on 300 with 291.

Felix Hernandez won 1 game in 1960 and now has 197. As of opening day, Felix has yet to sign with a team.

Pedro Martinez is the next closest to 200 wins with 182. The last three seasons for Pedro have been a roller coaster ride. He has shown flashes of greatness, but injuries have taken their toll as well. Hopefully, the 1960 post season is the proof Martinez has righted the ship and is ready for 5 or 6 more seasons of greatness.
