Frank Thomas said he is "close" to announcing his retirement.
"I'm getting close to announcing my retirement because I just turned 41," Thomas said on ESPN 1000. "I just want to make sure that it's the move I really want to make. I don't want to be one of those guys that keeps coming back and keeps saying, 'I'm unretiring, I'm coming back.' I want to make sure it's out of my system." Thomas may not completely have it out of his system, however, as he added: "I'm still in shape, ready to go, if anything happens." Thomas finished last season with the A's.

40-year-old free agent Frank Thomas reiterated Monday that he still wants to play.
"If nothing comes in due time, it will be time to retire," Thomas said. "But until then, I will still wait it out, see what happens. I'm fine with it one way or another." He's willing to delay a decision on retirement until the All-Star break, but injury concerns may ultimately keep him from inking a deal.

Frank Thomas said Tuesday that he's "just a little shocked that there is nothing pretty much available right now" because he's "in excellent shape and ready for a big year."
"Who knows? It may be my time to leave the game," Thomas said. "But I don't feel that way. I just don't get it. In my eyes, I know I can go out and hit 35 to 40 home runs, drive in 120 runs. That's the way I feel." Thomas still has enough patience and power to help some teams as a part-time player, but the future Hall of Famer hit .240/.349/.374 while missing half of last season with a quadriceps injury and turns 41 years old in May.
