We have a show to do today.

The whole new acronym thing drives me effing penins.

Can we call him by his wing?

I'm Gilbert and Mass.

On 985, the Sports Hub.

Let's go. hour three, Felger Mass here, 40 405 406 in the evening redsox update for you they made a signing today

a roll this champion chapman chapman jeez i knew i was going to butcher that a rollus chapman one year 10.75

yep yep for them constitutes a big signing maz your thoughts okay, so I have a high time getting excited about a role this Chapman when they have a lot bigger needs. How old is he? 37. He'll be 37 when the season starts. How fast does he throw? Do you still throw 100? Right about, yeah, I mean, he still throws hard. He's not my kind of guy, okay?

He's just not because he walks a crap ton of people in the last three years.

He's walked an average of six guys per nine innings.

That is astronomically high.

For a guy at the back of the bullpen, it's death.

Okay, so this is what it should tell you.

If you are looking for an analytics type of signing, this is it. They don't care about walks? No, they don't. They don't care about walks. In fact, 52% of all played appearances against this guy will walk or strikeout. 52%. Well, that's interesting. He's hard to hit. That's fun to watch. Okay, he's still hard to hit because he throws so damn hard, but he is.

He's horrible to watch.

He's also mentally weak, right? I mean, how many times he, especially when he was at the Yankees, you'd see him in high-levered situation, sweating, sweating, and he can't find the plate. He might be able to throw gas, but he's erratic.

No, he's all over the place, Murray, and really this is what he's sort of deteriorated into as his...

He was like this at the beginning. He's been this way his whole career, really. I remember when the Red Sox worked him out because they were one of the teams that were interested in him when he first came over from Cuba. And that day, they did it before the ballpark opened. But I remember people around the

ballpark saying he's really, really raw, really raw, throws the crap out of it, but it's all over

the place. He's never really changed. It's never really gotten all that much better. He had a couple

of years in there where the walks went down. He was better, you know, but, but, and it was never anything that lasted. So to me, he's the kind of guy

that scares the crap out of me in the late innings because I don't believe in putting men on
