    Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images I have thoughts. On Sunday, former Brewer All-Star Dave Parker was one of two players (along with Dick Allen) inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, via the Era Committee’s Classic Baseball Era (formerly known as the Veterans Committee) ballot. I’m a Hall junkie, so I had a million thoughts, some of which I will share. But the thought that will guide me: who...2024

Timeline

  • 2025
    "Jonathan Papelbon goes off on Rafael Devers’ weight with Red Sox slugger off to miserable start"

  • 2024
    "September 1, 2014, Philadelphia Phillies: Cole Hamels, Jake Diekman, Ken Giles and Jonathan Papelbon Hamels had run up a large pitch count of 108 in six innings due to five walks, so the Phillies called on three other pitchers to finish off the 7-0 win."

  • 2023
    "He had the makings of the next big closer for the Red Sox, the heir apparent to Jonathan Papelbon."

  • 2022
    "September 1, 2014, Philadelphia Phillies: Cole Hamels, Jake Diekman, Ken Giles and Jonathan Papelbon."

  • 2021
    "Jonathan Papelbon definitely was a unique relief pitcher."

  • 2020
    "After a strong first half, Storen stumbled down the stretch after being replaced in the closer’s role by mid-season acquisition Jonathan Papelbon."

  • 2019
    "A full season of ninth-inning work could push Kimbrel past Jeff Reardon (10th place, 367 saves) and Jonathan Papelbon (ninth place, 368 saves) on the All-Time saves leader board."

  • 2018
    "At the time, only Jonathan Papelbon and B."

  • 2016
    "Lorenzo Cain singled with two out in the ninth inning, driving in Mike Moustakas, as the Royals rallied for three runs off Nationals closer Jonathan Papelbon for a pulsating 7-6 win on Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium."

  • 2015
    "Outfielder (and NL MVP favorite) Bryce Harper and closer Jonathan Papelbon got into it during the bottom of the eighth inning against the Philadelphia Phillies."

  • 2014
    "Lester and Scherzer will receive a king’s ransom, while Miller and Robertson will approach (perhaps surpass in Robertson’s case) the four-year, $50 million deal given to Jonathan Papelbon by the Philadelphia Phillies in advance of the 2012 season."

    On its very surface, the fact that Craig Kimbrel remains unsigned sounds ridiculous. He’s on a Hall-of-Fame trajectory and leads all active relievers in saves (333). The only pitcher in MLB history (min. 200 innings) with a higher strikeout percentage than Kimbrel’s 41.6 percent mark is Aroldis Chapman … at 41.7 percent. A full season of ninth-inning work could push Kimbrel past Jeff Reardon (10th...2019
