FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that Lance Berkman is considering retiring and forfeiting the remainder of his salary. Berkman is dealing with nagging soreness in his right knee and isn't close to returning to game action. The 37-year-old is scheduled to meet with team officials on Wednesday, so a decision could be made soon. If he walks away, he would give up about $4.4 million.
