On January 11, 2011 ā Trevor Hoffman, who staked his claim as the all-timeĀ savesĀ leader in the majors thanks to an outstandingĀ change-up, announces his retirement after 18 seasons. He recorded his 600th save with theĀ BrewersĀ last season, and retires with 601, but had a tough year overall and found little interest in his services for next season. He will not hold the saves record for long, however, asĀ Mariano RiveraĀ has 559 and will pass him before the end of the coming season.
