Tim Anderson, the former Chicago White Sox shortstop, stated that while he still loves baseball, the pain it has caused him makes returning to play not an option for him at this time. The comments were reported by White Sox beat reporter Scott Merkin. Anderson's statement reads as a de facto retirement announcement, removing him from consideration as an active MLB player.
