New York Yankees right-handed pitcher Domingo German is in the midst of an 81-game suspension for a domestic violence incident from last year. With 63 games remaining on the punishment, the soonest he would play again would be in 2021, given the 60-game slate this season. However, if his recent activity on Instagram is to be believed, he may be have thrown his last pitch.

On Friday, the 27-year-old German posted on Instagram a simple-seven-word message indicating he was done with baseball.

The initial post was deleted shortly after appearing but was soon replaced with another, again hinting that he might not return.
