The DBacks reliever Brad Ziegler retires at age 39 today, he said his daily grind took a toll on his body. He played 11 years in the MLB and 4 years with the DBacks, "The daily grind has taken its toll on my body," Ziegler said. "There were really tough times in the past two seasons when I wondered if I could physically continue doing what it would take to stay on the field, and even if I could continue perform at the level I always had." He started out his career with the Oakland Athletics (2008), then DBacks (2011-2016), then (2016) Boston, then Miami (2017-2018), and finally he returned to play 29 games for the DBacks this past season.
