Edward Allen announced his retirement from baseball today. The longtime Las Vegas Hustlers manager, in his typical low-key style, simply issued a short press release.

"Today I am announcing my retirement from the game of baseball. I've had a great career, nearly fifty years, and have achieved everything I have wanted and more in the game. Now, it's time to spend time with my family, relax, and let someone else have this job. This job...which is the best in the Brewster, in my humble opinion. I know the kid will do well."

Clearly, Allen knows something that hasn't been announced yet. Rather than speculate, we'll let the news come out as the Hustlers want it to.

Do we have a HoF for managers? If not, we need one for this guy.
