Veteran pitcher Ross Stripling announced on social media Monday that he is retiring after a nine-year MLB career.

"After 13 seasons and full of tremendous pride and gratitude, it's time to hang up the cleats," the 35-year-old wrote in a statement on X. "I never could have imaged the experiences and memories I'd be a part of. They exceeded every hope that my younger self could have dreamt for my baseball career."

The Los Angeles Dodgers drafted Stripling in 2012, and he spent parts of four seasons in their minor-league system before debuting in 2016. He made his lone All-Star appearance two years later, recording a 3.02 ERA (128 ERA+) and 1.19 WHIP across 122 innings pitched.

The Toronto Blue Jays acquired Stripling during the 2020 season. He struggled in his first two years in Toronto but bounced back in 2022, recording the best fielding independent pitching mark (3.11) of his career.

The right-hander signed a two-year, $25-million contract with the San Francisco Giants that began in 2023 but was traded to the Athletics ahead of what became his final campaign in 2024.

"This has been an unbelievable honor, and I feel incredibly lucky to be so fulfilled and content with leaving the game behind," Stripling posted. "Now, I'm excited to be home and begin the next chapter of life with my amazing family."

Stripling retires with a 4.17 ERA and 1.25 WHIP across 846 1/3 innings.
