Garland, currently a free agent, is unlikely to pitch in 2014, FOX Sports' Jon Morosi reports.

Analysis:

Garland was pounded to the tune of a 5.82 ERA in 12 starts with the Rockies last season. He hasn't announced his retirement, but at the age of 34, taking a year off might have the same effect. At best, he could land a minor league deal with an invite to major-league spring training.
