-
Bartolo Colón officially retired from professional baseball in 2026, with reports noting a retirement ceremony and public acknowledgment of his career, including a ceremony at Citi Field. This marks the end of his playing career after last appearing in MLB in 2018 and in Mexican leagues through 2021.
-
The retirement news has been covered by multiple outlets, highlighting Colón’s Hall-of-Fame-worthy lift as a four-time All-Star and Cy Young Award winner, and noting his impact as one of the most recognizable figures in the game over the past two decades.
If you’d like, I can pull up the exact ceremony details, quotes from team officials, or a brief timeline of his major league milestones.
