Marte’s Royals Exit Signals Possible Retirement | Kansas City Royals News
Description
Starling Marte’s Royals stint may be over after being designated for assignment on a one-year, $1M deal — a move signaling the likely end of his MLB career. With declining speed, shaky defense, and just 2 homers and 14 RBIs in 59 games this season, teams are unlikely to claim him on waivers. He can opt out of minor league assignment, forcing a tough choice: retire or accept a low-risk, low-reward future. Once a standout speedster, Marte’s late-30s struggles mirror his Mets era — now, he might finally walk away from the game he gave everything to.
