David Américo Ortiz Arias (November 18, 1975) nicknamed “Big Papi”, is a former baseball designated hitter and first baseman who played 20 seasons in MLB primarily with the Boston Red Sox. He played for the Minnesota Twins. During his 14 seasons with the Red Sox, he was a ten-time All-Star, a three-time World Series champion, and a seven-time Silver Slugger winner. He holds the Red Sox single-season record for home runs with 54, which he set during the 2006 season.

Originally signed by the Seattle Mariners in 1992, he was traded to the Twins in 1996 and played parts of six seasons with the team. He was released by the Twins and signed with the Red Sox in 2003, where he spent the remainder of his career. In Boston, he established himself as “one of the greatest designated hitters the game has ever seen”. He was instrumental in the team ending its 86-year World Series championship drought in 2004, as well as during successful championship runs in 2007 and 2013; he was named the World Series MVP for the latter championship.

He finished his career with 541 home runs (which ranks 17th on MLB’s all-time home run list), 1,768 runs batted in (RBIs, 22nd all-time), and a .286 batting average. Among designated hitters, he is the all-time leader in MLB history for home runs (485), RBIs (1,569), and hits (2,192). Regarded as one of the greatest clutch hitters of all time, he had 11 career walk-off home runs during the regular season and two during the postseason. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

The Tradition of Alex Rodriguez in Baseball

Visit Blogpost

Alex Rodriguez, frequently alluded to as A-Bar, is one of the most polarizing figures in baseball history. Known for his staggering abilities and dubious vocation, A-Pole ruled the MLB, hoarding north of 600 homers and procuring numerous MVP grants. His contention with Derek Jeter, one more Yankees legend, enthralled fans for a really long time, exhibiting the cutthroat soul that characterizes baseball.

While Rodriguez confronted difficulties, including suspensions because of execution upgrading drugs, his on-field accomplishments are unquestionable. A-Bar's power-hitting capacity and baseball intelligence level made him an impressive rival, attracting correlations with different greats like David Ortiz, warmly known as Large Papi. Ortiz, a central participant for the Boston Red Sox, had his own incredible status, adding fuel to the Yankees-Red Sox competitionNotwithstanding the debates, A-Pole's effect on the game is significant. He has progressed into a fruitful media vocation, imparting his experiences on baseball to fans. As we ponder his excursion, obviously Alex Rodriguez stays a huge figure in baseball, perpetually connected to symbols like Jeter and Ortiz. His heritage keeps on impacting the game and today fans.

Watching their 2004 run as a kid was so magical and kinda what got me into sports in general.

Yesss that ALCS was amazing to watch even as a kid 😭Big papi got MVP, what a time 🤩

[playdeepcf]

David Ortiz became a legend in Boston by leading the Red Sox to 3 World Series titles. He was MVP of the 2004 ALCS and 2013 World Series. “Big Papi” is 17th all-time with 541 home runs and won the Roberto Clemente Award in 2011. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2022. #HHM #MLB

Standing with his friends, Five was deeply lost in thought. He was both stunned and terrified as he watched the video and listened to the briefing. The glitch terrified him because it could attack and harm humans, turning them into zombies. He couldn't help but worry about the people he cared about: his family, his abuela and papi, his dad, and all his friends. They had no idea of the threat that existed, and there was no way he could have warned them. Not without leaking the Hinobi's secret or creating a wave of panic that could cause more problems.

Clouded in his worries, Five snaps his head upwards when he hears his name. "W-What?" Like the MVP, he was also taken aback when they were both called instead of the usual duo, himself and Miko. Looking up at Phil, who stood above them, he couldn't help but swallow a lump in his throat. Feeling anxious already, the blue hair couldn't help but ruminate on the 10 possible reasons why Phil had summoned them. So far, Five has not recalled breaking any rules that he knows of.

"Bro, I can walk…" Yanked back to reality once more as his hand was yanked by Mitch, he took cautious steps as he bit his lips anxiously. "Why do you think he called us for?" He nervously pulled at his collar.

Where others described as 'tense,' Mitch was eagerly listening. Unfortunate that it means so many people have to get involved - this is something Mitch still has the impression he could handle alone. "Well, you heard BITT, blueberries." He's sure he heard Five and Miko - it's always Five and Miko, never not Five and Miko, you'd have to be a special sort of dense to not notice how well the two get along in and out of battle. It takes a moment - perhaps even a correction after he doesn't move for a while - for it to finally register what was being ordered.

"...You're kidding," he says flatly towards BITT. "They're kidding. Everybody's freaking out and I'm being assigned to Tweedle Dumb instead of him working with Tweedle Dee?" He goes to peer over the balcony, eyeing Phil, "Grumpy Cat, what's with the swit-" ...Phil usually has resting bitch face. This, however, is one of the more intense stares that says he's very much not in the mood for Mitch's usual shit.

"Unbelievable," he mumbles, starting to walk quickly down the steps. Whether or not Five has started moving as well, he is grabbing Five's wrist and forcing him to be lead down. Remember who's in charge here out of the two of them, Five!

Papa H has been in charge for exactly 1 episode of Raw and gave us Rey getting his well deserved flowers, multiple brawls, blood, an hour of Theory getting bullied, Rhea wearing Eddies “I’m your Papi” shirt and ended the show with this:

We stan one (1) head of creative and VP of talent relations.

SETH ROLLINS!

With the MVP of WWE is the only way the show should have ended, that is so cool! Might start watching WWE again just to see Seth Rollins finally being at the top of the company again. Like he should.

Ranking the best Red Sox third basemen in my lifetime

This is part one of a multipart series looking at the best Red Sox players at each position since the mid-1970s, as determined by me. (Two notes: One, you had to be the starter at that position for the bulk of the season to qualify for inclusion. And two, we ranked players by numbers, as well as my own personal set of intangibles.) We start with third base.

17. Glenn Hoffman (1980): One of a couple of guys who was shoehorned into the post-Hobson, pre-Boggs era. A utilityman who ended up taking the majority of reps in a year where it was third baseman-by-committee (Butch Hobson, Larry Wolfe, and Stan Papi also started games at third for the Sox that year), he went 4-42-.285 in 1980 and made 17 errors. (If that sounds like a lot, consider the fact that Hobson made 16 errors in 120 fewer chances. Yikes.)

16. Pablo Sandoval (2015-16): I wanted this to work so baldy — I loved Sandoval when he was with the Giants — but this was, without a doubt, one of the worst deals in recent memory.

15. Wilton Veras (2000): I’ll be honest … I had completely forgotten about Veras, who hit .244 in 49 games for the 2000 Red Sox. I also didn’t know he continued to play baseball for another 10 years after leaving Boston at the end of the 2000 season, spending time in Mexico and China. That’s a dude who loves baseball.

14. Scott Cooper (1993-94): The poor sap who had to follow Boggs after he departed for New York. Was a mostly dependable presence who made the All-Star team both years he was the started for Boston (if only because they didn’t have a lot of All-Star worthy players in that stretch), and went 13-53-.282 in 104 games in 1994. Wikipedia says he became a youth baseball coach and part-owner of a baseball facility after he retired. Good for him.

13. Shea Hillenbrand (2001-02): Daniel Nava for a new generation. A really pleasant surprise when he started as a rookie, he sort of came out of nowhere and won the job with a strong camp in 2001. He finished with 30 homers combined in his first two seasons, and while he was an adventure defensively, he appeared to be a part of a team that was building toward greatness at the start of 2003. But Boston acquired Bill Mueller, and that was pretty much that — he was traded to Arizona for Byung-hyun Kim in early 2003. In all, he played two-plus years and had 33 homers, 170 RBI and a .284 batting average. Pretty good. (I fell down a Hillenbrand rabbit hole, and it’s easy to forget he had a really rocky ride after leaving the Sox, including one incident in Toronto where he angered the manager so much he threatened to punch Hillenbrand in the mouth.)

12. Tim Naehring (1995-97): A perfectly respectable ballplayer who saw time at multiple spots before becoming the everyday third baseman in 1995, he played good defense and hit consistently enough. He just couldn’t stay healthy at all; backs, knee, and shoulder issues really derailed what could have been a nice career. The one year he played more than 120 games was 1995, when he finished with 10 homers, 57 RBI and a .307 average. (He also went 4-for-13 with a homer in the ALDS loss to Cleveland.)

11. Carney Lansford (1981-82): A personal favorite because he wore glasses. (I also had glasses as a kid.) Would have been higher on this list if he had stayed in Boston longer, but among his two-year accomplishments was the 1981 AL batting title, a .338 average, and a sixth-place finish in AL MVP voting that season. Sent to Oakland in a package for Tony Armas after it was clear Boggs could hit big-league pitching.

10. Will Middlebrooks (2013-14): You guys probably all know Middlebrooks’ info — solid, workmanlike third baseman who wasn’t much of a hitter (.237 average and 43 homers in two-plus years in Boston), so I’m going to tell you a personal story:

Between the 2012 and 2013 baseball seasons, we went to a fundraiser in the Boston area at the house of a friend. There were people donating to youth sports programs, and one of them had gotten Middlebrooks to show up, do some glad-handing, sign baseballs, that sorta thing. The guy was as great a guy as you would have hoped. My seven-year-old son — some readers know him as The Kid — wore his Middlebrooks t-shirt, and he talked to him, took pictures, signed a baseball. Just fantastic. Flash forward a few months and we are at Fenway’s Winter Weekend. Middlebrooks is there, and in the middle of a clubhouse tour, he comes over and says hi to my son. “Hey buddy, I remember you.” Made his month.

Needless to say, we remain Middlebrooks fans’ to this day. And that’s why we have him in our Top 10.

9. John Valentin (1998-1999): Bumped over to third with the arrival of Nomar (which he was not a fan of, initially, if you recall), he was likely the best third Red Sox third baseman of the post-Boggs, pre-Mueller era. In the end, he was probably underrated statistically — he had a really impressive 1995-99, and led the league in doubles in 1997 (47) while hitting .306 with 18 homers. Fell off the face of the earth after that 1999 postseason, where he driven 12 runs in the ALDS against Cleveland, and hit .348 in the ALCS against the Yankees. But like Rico Petrocelli (twenty-plus years later), he’ll probably be remembered as a better shortstop than a third baseman.

8. Rico Petrocelli (1975): A shortstop by trade, he spent year at third at the end of his Boston career, a stopgap before Hobson was ready for the bigs. Great shortstop, OK third baseman for one of all-time favorite teams. Let the record show he hit .308 in the 1975 World Series.

7. Butch Hobson (1976-79): I grew up on the mid-70s Sox, so I have a soft spot for Hobson. Love the fact that he hit 30 homers out of the No. 9 hole for the 1977 Crunch Bunch, and added 28 homers in 1979. But he played third base like an SEC quarterback ... which is to say that everyone was thrilled when his completion percentage (to first) was better than 60 percent. If he was a better defensive third baseman (in 1978, he committed 43 errors and had a fielding percentage below .900), he’d be a little higher on this list.

6. Kevin Youkilis (2011-12): It felt like Youkilis was around for years, and while he was in Boston for an awful long time (2004-2011, with a brief return in 2012), in truth, he was the starting third baseman for the better part of two seasons. He only played 100 games at third more than once, 2011. That surprises me a bit.  Anyway, he was every bit the Billy Beane fever dream of an offensive player you recall — including a 2008-10 where he raked, finishing with an OPS of .958 or better in all three years and a third-place finish in the MVP voting (2008). But his totals dropped off a bit after he permanently inherited the third baseman’s job after Beltre left. That’s one of the reasons we have him a little lower than you might expect on this list.

5. Bill Mueller (2003-05): Another third baseman who won a batting title, he of course gets a free pass in Boston for the rest of his life because he singled off Mariano Rivera in the bottom of the ninth in Game 4 of the 2004 ALCS. If he retired right after that, he’d still be able to walk into any bar in the 617 area code and have someone buy him a drink. I remember him homering off Mariano Rivera that July while I was driving down the Southeast Expressway on the way to Cape Cod and pounding on the steering wheel like a madman.

4. Mike Lowell (2006-09): One of the great complementary players of his era, Lowell was to that Red Sox team what Patrice Bergeron has been to the Bruins for the bulk of his career; not quite a superstar, but the sort of guy you need if you’re going to be a championship-driven squad. A pro’s pro. The throw-in in the Beckett-for-Hanley trade, he was the starting third baseman for four seasons, but in his five years in Boston, he was as steady as they come; 80 homers, 374 RBI, 290 BA, and a consistent glove. And who remembered that he was also fifth in the 2007 AL MVP voting. Injuries and Beltre’s presence cut into his playing time in 2010, and he ended up retiring at the end of the 2010 season.

3. Adrian Beltre (2010): Is this the single best one-and-done in Red Sox history? Beltre and Nick Esasky are on the short list. This was prime Beltre, a chapter in what became a Hall of Fame career: 154 games, 49 doubles, 28 homers, 102 RBI. He was an All-Star and was ninth in the MVP voting. (That 2010 team was a weird collection of stopover talent, including Beltre, Victor Martinez, and Mike Cameron.) In an alternate universe, Beltre stays in Boston instead of spending the final eight years in Texas, ends up hitting 600 career homers, and we’re talking about him as one of the best players in franchise history.

2. Rafael Devers (2017-present): The only reason why he’s ahead of Beltre is because there’s unlimited potential there, as opposed to the one year Beltre was in New England. When he barrels up, the sound of the ball coming off the bat is so pure. He hits the ball like it owes him money. He stings as consistently as anyone I can recall. The best possible comparison in my mind is Jim Thome, another lefty who seemingly never had a soft liner. Sure, there’s some recency bias here, but you look at his 2019-2021 — and the fact that he averaged 27 homers, 90 RBI, 36 doubles and 263 total bases those three years, to go along with an OPS of .916 in 2019 and .890 in 2021 — and you have to remind yourself that he did that before the age of 25. The mind reels at what he might be able to eventually accomplish.

1. Wade Boggs (1983-1992): Not a personal fan — anyone who went from Boston to New York the way that he did … eh. But you can’t discount the fact that he was one of the greatest hitters of his generation, and a guy who made himself into a very good defensive third baseman. In the end, he checked every box.

Snowmaaaaannn

So to get into the festive spirit I decided to make a group cover with all my babs of one of my favourite wintery vocaloid songs Snowman, alongside a speedpaint of the thumbnail of the vid. I'm very happy overall with how everything turned out, this is the first time I used all my utaus in a chorus like this so I didn't know if they'd sound good together, but it works somehow! Papilo and Tabby in particular were the true mvps of this lol, their higher and lower ranges added a nice oomph for the group parts ^.^
