Beloved ex-Met Bartolo Colon finally retires from baseball at 50

Bartolo Colon, 50, has officially retired from baseball, Z101’s Hector Gomez reported.

The right-hander, whose Major League career spanned 21 seasons, joined the Mets in 2014 and became a dependable part of the rotation for three seasons.

He threw 31-plus starts each year, with his best statistical season coming in 2016 when he finished 15-8 with a 3.43 ERA and earned his fourth and final All-Star Game selection.
