NEW YORK -- Former major league outfielder Nick Swisher says he is stepping away from the game to spend time with his wife and two daughters.In a series of posts to his Twitter account on Saturday, Swisher said he plans to keep training every day and evaluate my options for next season at the appropriate time.The 35-year-old Swisher hasnt appeared in a major league game this season. He was released by Atlanta late in spring training and signed a minor league contract with the New York Yankees in April.Swisher and his wife, JoAnna, recently welcomed their second daughter, Sailor Stevie.I dont think we would have signed him if we didnt want to take a look at him, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said before New York played at San Diego. We just felt some guys were ahead of him at the time. He was never called and I respect what he did. He had another baby and hell enjoy that.While the Yankees could have brought up Swisher, they left him in the minors and brought up Chris Parmelee, who then got hurt, and they still didnt bring up Swisher.Swisher is earning $15 million this year under the contract he signed with Cleveland before the 2013 season.Asked what hell remember about Swishers career, Girardi said: Im not so sure that this will be it for him. He was a guy that brought a lot of energy and had some big years for us. Patient hitter that had power.Swisher, the son of former major league catcher Steve Swisher, made his major league debut with Oakland in 2004. He has 245 homers and 803 RBIs in 1,527 games.

"Its about time," St-Pierre told reporters at a promotional event in Montreal on Friday. "I think its a good thing. Wholesale Rangers Jerseys . The third-ranked Ivanovic, who won the event in 2008 and 10, served five aces and broke Wickmayer, also a former winner in 2009, five times. "The result looked easier than it really was," Ivanovic said. http://www.cheapnewyorkrangersjerseys.com/ . Q: Team Canada announces their Olympic roster three weeks from today. Who is general manager Steve Yzerman watching? LeBrun: Over the last 48 hours, hes taken in the home-and-home between the Dallas Stars and Colorado Avalanche with Jamie Benn and Matt Duchene being the obvious targets. Cheap Rangers Jerseys . Varlamov made 33 saves and Ryan OReilly had a goal and scored in the shootout as the Avalanche beat the New Jersey Devils 2-1 on Thursday night. Cheap Rangers Jerseys China . Louis. To which I would say two things: 1. Where there is smoke, there is or perhaps has been a little fire. Or, in other words, the two teams would appear to have at least spoken. And spoken is defined as one calling the other to inquire, no more, no less. Even though there is technically no team component to the Olympic golf competition, dont tell that to Emiliano Grillo, who along with Fabian Gomez, make up the Argentine golf delegation.I play for myself every single week, said the 23-year-old Grillo, who is tied for 14th in the mens Olympic Golf Tournament. Here, Im playing for my province Chaco, for Argentina, for 40 million people.... There is team spirit with Gomez. We feel we are in this one together, for our province and country.Gomez, who has won each of the past two seasons on the PGA Tour, owns a share of sixth place at the halfway mark of the mens Olympic Golf Tournament.Argentina is one of just three countries -- Belgium and Sweden are the other two -- with two golfers inside the top 14 through 36 holes. Both Grillo, who is ranked 39th in the world, and Gomez, who is 79th, opened with 1-under-par rounds of 70 at the Olympic Golf Course on Thursday, but it was Gomez who went lower in Round 2 with a 67 compared to Grillos 69. Gomez attributed that to his compatriot having to play most of his second round in moree difficult weather conditions.ddddddddddddA medal? Yes, that is what I came here for, said Gomez, who currently sits 3 shots outside a spot on the medal podium. Any color ... I know everyone aims at gold, but I want to get any of the three.Grillo won the Frys.com Open in his first start as a PGA Tour member earlier this season. He knows those ahead of him on the leaderboard wont do him any favors, but he also understands its no certainty that the leaders will continue their form for the final two rounds.The leaders have been playing well, agreed, he said. But they (have to) keep doing it like that for two more days.So far in these Summer Olympics, Argentina has just one medal -- a gold -- from Paula Pareto in the womens 48kg judo competition. Could Grillo and Gomez be battling it out for another spot on the podium Sunday for themselves and their country?If the cards -- and putts -- fall their way, they just might each walk away with a medal.
