New York Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira is expected to announce his retirement later Friday effective at the end of the season, sources told ESPN's Buster Olney.

Teixeira, 36, is a three-time All-Star and five-time Gold Glove winner. His best season came in 2009, his first with the Yankees, when he hit .292 and finished second in AL MVP voting.

The Yankees have scheduled a 3 p.m. ET news conference about Teixeira, although they did not detail the reason.

Tex's deal signed with the yankees in 2009 should go down as an all time shite contract, but everyone just forgets his ineptitude b/c a-rod is an easier target

2018 winter is going to be very similar to 2008 winter for the Yankees in terms of spending

Only thing I like about him is the haul the Rangers got from the Braves when trading him. He has a look that I'd like to hit with a shovel.

Same for me. Dude is an elite a-hole

Good player but could have been great. He does have the ultimate punch face

I've always felt the same way even when he played for Texas. Though he was not as bad as CJ Wilson. Some of his mannerisms he made when playing makes you just wanna punch him.

Good riddance. Can't wait for the name of that cock sucker to evaporate off of the Hall of Fame ballot. Can't stand him.
