Sun Feb 17 201321:09Konerko's future still uncertain beyond 2013
Paul Konerko reiterated Sunday that he's still unsure whether he'll retire after the 2013 season.
Konerko, who turns 37 in March, admitted that last year was difficult from an injury standpoint, but hasn't ruled out playing beyond this season. "Setting a finish line, I'm not a big believer in that, because you always have a tendency to let up," he said. "It's something that will be talked about after the season, regardless of how it goes. I'll address when the time comes."

Fri Jan 25 201315:58Paul Konerko unsure if he'll retire
Paul Konerko said Friday that he's unsure whether he'll retire after the 2013 season.
Konerko mentioned when he signed a three-year deal in December of 2010 that he was prepared to retire at the conclusion of the contract. Of course, he probably didn't imagine remaining as productive as he's been, sporting a .304/.384/.530 batting line while averaging 32 homers over the last three seasons. He'll turn 37 in March, but it's hard to imagine him hanging it up if he has another nice year in 2013.
