Trenton Public School officials had many athletic accomplishments to choose from before selecting J.J. Putz as the first Trenton High School graduate to have a jersey retired at the school.

Here's a list of Putz's stats since he graduated in 1995, provided by Trenton High School officials:

• Scholarship to U of M
• Drafted by Chicago White Sox
• Drafted by Seattle Mariners
• Played with Seattle Mariners 2003-2008
• Major League Relief Pitcher of the Year – 2007
• Major League Rolaids Relief Pitcher of the Year
• New York Mets 2009 World Baseball Classic
• Chicago White Sox 2010

• Arizona Diamondbacks – 2011 to present
• 513 Innings Pitched
• 541 Strike Outs
• 180 Saves as Closer

Putz will have his jersey retired during a ceremony at this year's Signature Event held by the Trenton Educational Foundation on Nov. 7 at Fratello's Restaurant.

Athletic Director Bret Woodley said Putz was the obvious choice do to his lengthy professional career and impressive statistics.

"As of today, I would consider him to be the most accomplished athlete (from Trenton High School)," Woodley said. "He has a very accomplished career in Major League Baseball."

Woodley said he wants to put a Putz jersey on a banner along the outfield fence in the high school baseball field, so it can easily be seen from home plate.
