What happens to retired Major League Baseball players?

Retired players fight for coveted jobs as sports broadcasters (past winners of these positions have included John Kruk, Harold Reynolds, Paul O'Neill, and Joe Morgan). All retired baseball players who cannot get these jobs are given the 'Ted Williams' treatment (popularized by Futurama).
