While Papelbon’s year will be defined by his breakdown
While Papelbon’s year will be defined by his breakdown in Game 3 of the ALDS vs. the Angels, he did enjoy a strong campaign, holding opposing hitters to a minuscule .213 batting average against and blowing only three saves. His big problem was control, as the 24 walks he issued were more than his last two seasons combined. He shed those issues down the stretch, though, compiling an excellent 29/4 K/BB ratio over the last two months of the season. Given his status as a hardened closer, owners needn’t be concerned about his mindset going forward. Papelbon will come back in 2010 with a renewed sense of determination and reaffirm his place among the elite firemen in the game.
