Mark Mulder told Jeff Fletcher of AOL Fanhouse that he has retired.
"I guess I am [retired]," Mulder told Fletcher. "I haven't touched a baseball since February." Mulder, who hasn't appeared in a major league game since the 2008 season, was linked in talks with the Brewers over the winter, however nothing materialized. The southpaw wraps up his injury-plagued career with a record of 103-60 to go along with a 4.18 ERA and 1.34 WHIP. A two-time All-Star, Mulder finished second in the American League Cy Young award voting in 2001 when he won 21 games at the age of 23. He's just another case of what could have been.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

Mark Mulder confirmed to the San Francisco Chronicle Monday evening that he is not retiring from baseball.

Mulder told the Chronicle's Susan Slusser that his shoulder "just doesn't rotate quite right" and that he is taking a step back from the game, but the 32-year-old southpaw is not ready to fully call it quits. He's drawn interest this winter from the Brewers and may try to ink a midseason deal.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

According to a report by San Francisco Chronicle writer Susan Slusser, Gregg Clifton, Mark Mulder's agent, is saying reports of his client's retirement are not correct.

Clifton says: "Not accurate. Mark has not made a decision." The news of Mulder's retirement was first reported by Lance Allan of TMJ4 in Milwaukee on Sunday night and then confirmed by Brewers pitching coach Rick Peterson. Injuries have derailed Mulder's career, but it isn't out of the question for him to take a minor league contract and embark on a long journey back. Stay tuned.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

Brewers pitching coach Rick Peterson has confirmed that left-hander Mark Mulder has decided to retire, reports Adam McCalvy of MLB.com.

It was first reported by Lance Allan of TMJ4 in Milwaukee on Sunday night. The 32-year-old left-hander has decided to hang it up rather than attempt a comeback on a minor league contract. Mulder retires after nine big league seasons with the Athletics and Cardinals, compiling a career record of 103-60 to go along with a 4.18 ERA and 1.34 WHIP. Mulder was a two-time All-Star and finished second in the American League Cy Young award voting in 2001 when he won 21 games as a 23 year old. It's a real shame injuries had to cut his career short.

Mark Mulder has decided to retire, according to Lance Allan of TMJ4 in Milwaukee.

Mulder flirted with the idea of joining his former pitching coach Rick Peterson in Milwaukee this offseason. A career derailed by shoulder problems, the 32-year-old left-hander hasn't pitched a full season in the big leagues since 2005. If the report is true, he'll hang up his cleats with a career record of 103-60 to go along with a 4.18 ERA and 1.34 WHIP over nine seasons with the Athletics and Cardinals.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

Adam McCalvy reports that the Brewers could still sign free agent left-hander Mark Mulder on a minor league contract.

After signing Jim Edmonds, general manager Doug Melvin said he wasn't sure where else he could add to the roster, but Mulder is a notable exception. The Brewers have been connected to Mulder all winter, and his long-standing relationship with his former pitching coach Rick Peterson makes the marriage a pretty logical fit.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

Brewers general manager Doug Melvin met with free agent left-hander Mark Mulder on Thursday but no agreement is imminent.

The Brewers want to see Mulder throw off a mound before committing to any sort of contract. "He's doing long tossing now and throwing off flat ground," Melvin told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Friday. "We told him we'd get back with him later on. He's interested in us and we're interested in him."

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

Brewers pitching coach Rick Peterson told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel this week that Mark Mulder is completely healthy and ready to contribute.

"He feels great physically," said Peterson. "He’s healthy, in tremendous shape. This is beyond rehabbing. It’s about performance now. It’s a matter of whether he can recapture his game." The Brewers are expected to offer Mulder, 32, a minor league contract next week with an invitation to spring training. The deal will also contain some performance-based incentives.

The Brewers will meet with free agent left-hander Mark Mulder on Thursday, reports Adam McCalvy of MLB.com.

"I think it will just be a nice chance to get together and talk and then we'll go from there," said Mulder's agent Gregg Clifton. "But I don't think it will take weeks and weeks to figure out, assuming they are interested in getting something done." The Brewers are expected to offer the oft-injured southpaw a minor league contract.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

The Brewers plan to meet with Mark Mulder shortly and discuss a contract with the left-hander.

"We just want to see how he feels physically and if he's up to the challenge," said assistant GM Gord Ash. Assuming Mulder delivers all the right platitudes, a minor league contract with an invite to spring training is expected to be laid on the table. If Mulder accepts, he would rejoin former Athletics pitching coach Rick Peterson.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

Brewers GM Doug Melvin is scheduled to meet with free agent lefty Mark Mulder next week to talk about a contract.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Haudricourt says to "expect a signing." Mulder hasn't pitched a full season in the major leagues since 2005 and has made only three appearances in the past two years. It's doubtful he scores anything more than a minor league deal.

Mark Mulder - S - Cardinals

Brewers general manager Doug Melvin and new pitching coach Rick Peterson plan to meet with free agent left-hander Mark Mulder in January to discuss a contract, reports Adam McCalvy of MLB.com.

The Brewers are expected to offer Mulder a minor-league deal. It's far from a sure thing, but Milwaukee might represent Mulder's best chance to resurrect his career. Mulder, 32, hasn't pitched a full season in the majors since 2005, so few teams will be willing to guarantee him anything.

Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports the Royals have joined the Brewers in their quest for free agent Mark Mulder.

The Royals are exploring a multitude of inexpensive options this winter to improve their pitching staff. Mulder, now 32, hasn't pitched a full season in the majors since 2005 and has made only three appearances in the last two yeas. He's a low-risk, and probably low-reward, free agent.

According to SI.com's Jon Heyman, the Brewers are scheduled to meet Tuesday afternoon with the representatives for Mark Mulder.

The Brewers are the only team that has admitted publicly to interest in the 32-year-old lefty. Mulder hasn't pitched a full season in the major leagues since 2005, but Milwaukee management is willing to make a few low cost gambles this offseason.
