The Angels will pass on Jake Locker, thank you very much. Locker, still only 26, announced his retirement from an injury-plagued career as an NFL quarterback on Tuesday. The Angels selected Locker in the 10th round of the 2009 First-Year Player Draft, signing the two-sport star for $300,000 even though he was focused primarily on football because they’d hold his rights as a baseball player until August 2015.
