Jose Villodos, RHP
Retired after the 2001 season at 24 yrs old, after making his debut with the Marlins in 2001. He pitched 1 perfect inning then retired.

Gunner Hayes, C
Retired after the 2002 season at 23 yrs old. He made his debut in 2002 with the Tigers, going 6 for 20 (.300). He retired after the season.

Glenn O'Connor, RHP
Retired after the 2003 season at 25 yrs old. He made his debut in 2003 after dominating the minor leagues for two years. He started one game with San Diego, pitching 7 innings allowing 4 runs. He retired after the season. He has never been injured. (the other two had a couple minor injuries)

Seems weird that these guys are retiring after a successful debut year.

Have you posted this over at the ootp forums?

I'm going to put some time in with my fictional league today and see if my league is doing these same sort of things. This would NOT be good.
