Free-agent infielder Adrian Sanchez announced his retirement from professional baseball on his Instagram account on Monday. Sanchez hadn't played in major-league baseball since 2021 with the Washington Nationals, although he had been playing for the Staten Island FerryHawks in independent baseball this year. The 32-year-old played in four big-league seasons from 2017-2021, all with the Nationals. In that time, Sanchez slashed .262/.287/.328 with no home runs, 11 doubles, a triple, 16 RBI, no stolen bases and 22 runs scored in 204 plate appearances and 106 games. His rookie season in 2017 was his best, when he hit .268 (19-for-71) with seven doubles, 11 RBI and six runs scored in 34 games.
