Cameron retires as Mariner: Former major-league outfielder Mike Cameron made his retirement official Friday when he signed a one-day employment contract that allowed him to retire as a member of the Seattle Mariners organization. Cameron was in town to throw out the first pitch before the team's home opener. ''It's a long way from home for me, but it's also been a special home for me,'' Cameron said Friday night. ''I felt like it was only fitting to try to slide my way into the Mariner family for the rest of my life.'' His best season was also Seattle's best season in 2001 when the Mariners won 116 regular-season games and Cameron hit .267 with 25 homers and 110 RBI. (Updated 04/13/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
It was a largely ceremonial move, but one Cameron wanted to do while he was in Seattle. Cameron was signed for the 2012 season by Washington, but informed the Nationals shortly before spring training that he planned to retire, concluding a career that spanned 17 seasons and seven teams. Cameron also played for the White Sox, Cincinnati, the Mets, San Diego, Milwaukee, Boston and Florida. Fantasy owners should continue to leave Cameron untouched in all formats as his career comes to an end. (Updated 04/13/2012).

Jamie Moyer is 49 years old. If he makes the Rockies this year it will be the eighth franchise he's played for in 25 seasons.
Omar Vizquel will turn 45 in April. If he makes the Blue Jays, it will be his sixth franchise and 24th season.
With all that service time, the two players have played with an absurd amount of great players over the years. But whose "All-Star team" -- that is, a team consisting of former teammates -- is better? Let's check it out.
