Mike Puma at the New York Post says Wagner is 'eyeing retirement'.
LINKBilly Wagner may have thrown his last pitch in the major leagues.
The former Mets pitcher told The Post yesterday he's planning to retire rather than pursue a closer's job -- and 400 career saves -- next season.
"I don't plan on talking to nobody," Wagner said, when asked where he might pitch next season.
Does that mean retirement?
"Why wouldn't I?" he said. "I've got nothing else to [accomplish]." ETA (from the end of the piece):
A source close to the situation said Wagner might just need a cooling period before deciding to pitch in 2010, but also cautioned that the lefty is making his family a priority and could very well be serious about retirement.
