Cubs' 2.61 ERA pitcher retires after 13 MLB seasons

Trevor Cahill hangs up the cleats.

When you have an MLB career like Trevor Cahill, it's hard to single out a team or two that were best.

Cahill's is probably the Oakland Athletics, a team that doesn't even play there anymore.

Besides that, Cahill did his best work for the Cubs.

In two seasons with Chicago, Cahill had a 2.61 ERA, mostly out of the bullpen.

Why are we talking about Cahill? Because he retired on Wednesday.

Cahill spent 13 seasons in MLB and pitched for the A's, Cubs, Diamondbacks, Angels, Braves, Padres, Giants, Royals and Pirates.

He last appeared in the majors in 2021, but Cahill didn't officially retire until now.

Cahill made the All-Star Game in 2010 to represent Oakland in a season he finished with a 2.97 ERA.

He pitched in 117 games for the A's, 90 for the Diamondbacks and 67 for the Cubs as his three-most appeared-for teams.

Now, Cahill hangs up his cleats and his talented right arm and moves on to the next stage of his life.
