MartÃn Pérez Sends Cryptic Message on Twitter
Could MartÃn Pérez be leaving the Red Sox?
After punching out the Atlanta Braves on Sunday, the Los Angeles Dodgers join the Tampa Bay Rays in accomplishing a rare milestone.
Good evening Red Sox fans. You all know Big Papi. He is a Red Sox legend and a future Hall of Famer. You would figure that he would be loyal to all Boston sports teams since he spent nearly his entire career there but that doesn’t seem to be the case. On Fox’s National League …
If you could pick two teams in the MLB that had polar opposite seasons, the Rays and the Red Sox would be an easy answer. The Rays finished first in the AL East and are three wins away from the World Series. The Red Sox finished dead last in the AL East and were three losses away from a top-2 pick in the 2021 MLB Draft. Aside from being in the same division, there is another thing that links these two teams: Chaim Bloom.
When you look at the Red Sox and Yankees records this season, you would assume that the Bronx Bombers had a more successful season in 2020 because they had more wins and they made it to the postseason, which is supposed to be every team’s goal at the beginning of the season.
The Yankees quest for a 28th World Series championship will have to wait at least another year. Their 2020 season has come to an end following their 2-1 loss in game five of the ALDS to the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Boston Red Sox had a tough year and were at the very bottom of the AL East in 2020, so Chief Baseball Officer Chaim Bloom had to trade his veterans with expiring contracts to get some young talent in return.
The Yankees fought off elimination last night thanks to excellent pitching. Starter Jordan Montgomery went 4 innings allowing just 1 run on 3 hits. He struck out 4 batters and walked 3. Montgomery hadn’t pitched since September 24th against the Blue Jays.
Throughout the history of baseball there have been many players that have changed the game, they brought eyes to the screen and put asses in seats. Griffey, Ruth, Bonds, Clemente…. those are a few of the names that will forever be part of the story of baseball because without those guys the game isn’t what it is today.
The American League Divisional Series is all tied up at 1-1 following the Yankees 7-5 loss to the Rays last night.
