Former Seattle Mariners pitcher Hernandez: 3,000 strikeouts, 200 wins the goal before retirement

Former Seattle Mariners great Felix Hernandez said he wants to reach 200 career wins and 3,000 strikeouts before he retires.

“I’m not thinking about (retirement) yet because I feel I still have more to do in the game of baseball,” Hernandez told 710 ESPN Seattle this week. “I know I can pitch. I have a lot of weapons to get people out. I’m going to go year by year because my goal is to get to 200 wins and 3,000 strikeouts. If I can get to that goal, I can hang my spikes. I’m done.
