Chris Perez comes into a 6-1 game to get work, and he turns it into a 6-5 game. Can't make this stuff up. Francona will still keep him in the closers role too.
how come his dick isn't ridden like Matt Harvey or Strasburg or Verlander? etc
5th straight sub-3 ERA including sub-2 this year
he's 25! going to win the CY this year and a fluke year from DIckey stole his CY last year (should have won it, look at their numbers)
Because he doesn't pitch in New York, and Verlander, it was all because of the win total. Obviously, he was still the best pitcher in the league during his MVP year, but the wins were the main thing for the pub.
He's right though. It's not like these pitchers were born with the title of closer. If Baseball wasnt so old school and traditionally driven, teams would be matching up in the 9th, using their "closer" in earlier innings if the situation called for it, etc..
