Renteria announced his retirement Thursday, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
The shortstop was perhaps best known for his postseason exploits, as he delivered the winning RBI in Game 7 of the 1997 World Series with the Marlins and took home MVP honors in the 2010 World Series with the Giants. In between, he was a five-time All-Star, with his best seasons coming during a five-year stint with the Cardinals. Renteria retires with 2,327 hits, 140 home runs and 294 stolen bases on his ledger.

Aside from his playoff heroics with the Giants in 2010, Renteria hasn't been a plus-hitter since 2007 when he had an .860 OPS with the Braves. Since then he's had four similar below-average seasons, culminating with the Reds last year when he could muster only a .654 OPS despite playing in a very friendly hitting venue. He's miscast as a starting shortstop - at best he should be a veteran caddy for a team trying to break in a rookie at shortstop. His inflexibility defensively hurts his chances of finding playing time as a utility player.
