Pierre has decided to retire from MLB, Buster Olney of ESPN reports.

Pierre hadn't played in the major leagues since 2013, and it appears his run at a comeback has ended. The speedster finishes his career with 2,217 hits, 1,075 runs and 614 stolen bases over the course of his 14-year career, and won a championship with the Marlins in 2003.

Juan Pierre said he won't retire when his contract expires after this season.

To his credit, Pierre realizes that the decision may be out of his hands. Pierre, who will turn 36 in a few weeks, is hitting a putrid .244/.286/.299 and has started only three games since the beginning of July. "I'm not going to cry once I'm done playing," Pierre said. "They can come and take away my jersey right now, and I'll be fine. I'll be OK with it either way."

ESPN's Buster Olney reports that the Marlins are "gauging the interest" in Juan Pierre and Placido Polanco.

They're unlikely to find a suitor for either struggling veteran. Pierre, 35, is batting just .242/.284/.297 this season. Polanco, 37, is hitting .259/.315/.301.

Juan Pierre went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases and scored the go-ahead run in the 10th inning, but the Phillies outlasted the Marlins on Tuesday.

Pierre actually led off the inning with a walk and was sacrificed to second before stealing third and scoring on a wild pitch. The lead was short-lived, however, as a John Mayberry home run tied the game again in the bottom of the frame. Still, his two stolen bases on the night gives him 16 through 48 games this year.

Juan Pierre hit his annual homer Thursday against the Reds, delivering a leadoff shot off Mat Latos in the first.

Pierre has 18 homers in 14 big-league seasons, never hitting more than three in a year. Not a one of them has come against a left-handed pitcher.

Juan Pierre swiped his 600th career base Thursday against the Phillies.

Pierre, who is 9-for-10 stealing bases this year, is the 18th player in major league history to reach 600 steals. He's due to pass George Davis (619), Otis Nixon (620) and Kenny Lofton (622) and move into 15th place on the all-time list later this year. He has almost 150 steals on Ichiro Suzuki (454) for first place on the active list.

Juan Pierre went 2-for-6 with two steals against the Mets in Monday's 15-inning game.

Pierre was in a lot of pain after getting hit on the elbow by a Bobby Parnell pitch in the 10th, but he stayed in afterwards. If not for Giancarlo Stanton's injury two batters later, perhaps Pierre would have come out after running. As it was, the Marlins had little choice but to leave him in. If Pierre isn't in Tuesday's lineup, you'll know why.

Juan Pierre stole two bases Tuesday in the Marlins' defeat of the Nationals.

Pierre went 3-for-4 at the plate with two runs scored. He got off to a slow start this year but should be a solid source of stolen bases the rest of the way.

Juan Pierre went 0-for-4 at the plate Sunday against the Phillies, dropping his batting average to .174.

He also has just one stolen base over his first 12 contests, so he's providing nothing for fantasy owners right now. The Marlins don't have many options, though, so Pierre probably isn't in danger of losing the left field job anytime soon.

Marlins manager Mike Redmond indicated on Saturday that he'll likely use Juan Pierre, Placido Polanco and Giancarlo Stanton as the top three hitters in his lineup this season.

It's not a surprising development, as the Marlins have very few proven options for top of the order hitters. It's a nice boost to Pierre's potential fantasy value however, as his runs and stolen base totals should be very strong from the top of the lineup, despite being a major negative in the power categories.

Marlins signed OF Juan Pierre to a one-year, $1.6 million contract.

On the surface, it seems like a solid deal for both parties. The Marlins get an inexpensive veteran who should provide a strong presence at the top of the lineup, while Pierre receives the opportunity to secure everyday at-bats. The 35-year-old outfielder offers little in the power department, but Pierre is a strong three-category contributor in fantasy leagues and should have no difficulty accumulating 40 or more steals in 2013.

According to Craig Mish of Sirius XM, the Marlins have signed free agent outfielder Juan Pierre.

Terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed. The 35-year-old outfielder hit .307/.351/.371 with 37 stolen bases for the Phillies in 2012. Pierre previously played with the Marlins from 2003-2005, and will presumably see regular starts in left field for Miami in 2013.

Danny Knobler of CBSSports.com reports that the Orioles are interested in a trade for Phillies outfielder Juan Pierre.

Pierre wouldn't be eligible for the postseason roster, but he could help soften the blow of losing Nick Markakis. As of now, the Phillies aren't motivated to move him, possibly because they are playing better recently and still have an outside chance at the playoffs. Orioles manager Buck Showalter will likely mix and match with Lew Ford, Nate McLouth, Chris Davis and Xavier Avery in the corner outfield spots for now.

Jon Morosi of FOXSports.com reports that Juan Pierre has cleared revocable waivers.

Morosi thinks a deal involving Pierre could be completed sometime today, though he didn't list potentially interested teams. The Reds had interest in him before the deadline, but it's doubtful they'd still want him following the rise of Ryan Ludwick.

Juan Pierre went 3-for-4 with an RBI, three runs scored and two stolen bases in Monday's win over the Reds.

The Phillies hit three over the boards against the Reds, but Pierre hurt them with some small ball. Pretty quietly, the veteran outfielder has had a nice fantasy season, batting .312 with 31 steals.

According to USA Today's Bob Nightengale, the Reds' coaching staff "loves" outfielder Juan Pierre.

And the Reds believe Pierre would be a "perfect fit" for their roster down the stretch, adds Nightengale. The veteran speedster is batting .306/.346/.373 this season with 23 stolen bases in 27 chances. Philly should be plenty open to moving him before Tuesday's deadline.

Juan Pierre went 2-for-3 with a double and his sixth stolen base in Wednesday's win over the Cubs.

The two-hit night was Pierre's sixth in 14 May games, and leaves him with a highly surprising .340/.387/.379 triple slash through his first 112 plate appearances. He'll need to start stealing bases with greater frequency to hold his 10-12 team mixed-league value, however.

Juan Pierre is batting .292/.292/.292 through his first 24 plate appearances this season.

A bizarre batting line, but one which sums him up pretty well. While Pierre figures to hit for a decent batting average, he doesn't walk much and won't hit for any power. It's true that he'll accumulate some stolen bases, but he has a lousy 62 percent success rate (29-for-47 in stolen base attempts) since the start of last season. There's some value here in NL-only leagues, but he is more likely to hurt at the top of the Phillies' lineup than help.

Phillies purchased the contract of OF Juan Pierre.

In other words, he has landed a spot on the Phillies' 40-man roster and should be a member of the bench on Opening Day. Pierre is 15-for-48 with three steals this spring.

Juan Pierre can opt out of his minor league contract with the Phillies if he's not on Philadelphia's big league roster on March 31.

It shouldn't be a problem, as most assume Pierre's spot is all but assured. "Obviously, he's not the same player he had been, but he's still a guy that can help us offensively, especially with his speed," general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said. "He had a very, very good year last year. He had more hits than anybody on our team." Amaro is clearly exaggerating Pierre's effectiveness last season, as he batted .279/.329/.327 with two homers, 50 RBI and a .657 OPS over 711 plate appearances and also went a career-worst 27-for-44 in stolen base attempts, but he should make for a decent fourth outfielder.
