Announces retirement Wednesday
Weaver announced his retirement Wednesday after spending 12 years in the majors.
ANALYSIS
Weaver has been battling back from a left hip injury that's kept him off the field since mid-May, but the 34-year-old decided to call it a career after it became apparent that the issue was not going away as quickly as he had hoped. During just nine starts with the Padres, Weaver accumulated a 7.44 ERA and 1.49 WHIP, and has been unable to recapture his form the past few years. Weaver leaves the league having played 11 seasons with the Angels and just a few months with San Diego, totaling 150 wins in more than 2,000 innings during his major-league career.

It was another season, and another down year for Weaver in 2016. The former ace continued his rapid decline, as he saw his fastball continue to decrease in velocity, his ERA jump to 5.06, and his HR/9 skyrocket to 1.9. Even his typically-excellent control was lacking, as his 2.6 BB/9 was nearly a full walk higher than 2015. If one positive can be taken from 2016, it's that the veteran managed to stay healthy for almost the entire season, with his only hiccup being a lower-back injury he sustained in his final start of the season. That being said, Weaver's tenure in Anaheim is likely over, and considering his rough performance as of late (with his peripherals actually signaling that things could have been worse), it'll be tough for him to garner a large role no matter where he lands in free agency. The 34-year-old seems to be destined for a long relief role unless a struggling team is in the market for a veteran rotation presence.
