Steve Pearce, the Most Valuable Player of the World Series last fall, is giving strong consideration to retiring after 13 seasons in the majors.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about what to do,’’ Pearce said Saturday before the Red Sox played the Baltimore Orioles. “It could be time.’’
Pearce, who turns 37 in April, played only 29 games this season because of a strained left calf, a lower-back strain, and a partially torn ligament in his left knee. He has not played since May 31.
