Carl Everett

We were talking about kind of the Aaron Rowan trade, like win-win.

Like you lose Frank, you lose Carl Everett, you lose Aaron Rowan, which is big, but then you go and get Jim Tomey.

And while that team didn't replicate what they did in 2005, it was a different team and they still had their own feeling.

Like 2006 was not 2005.

Veritech was on third, and there were two outs, and first and second base were open with two outs.

So the next two guys up were Nomar Garcia-Farr and Carl Everett.

Both were hitting like 400.

They're both all-stars.

I love that, but by the way, that's not the first Boston athlete to not believe in stuff like that.

We had, uh, we had Carl Everett, who was known as Scavert Cuca around here-

Yeah

... who didn't believe, he didn't believe in dinosaurs.

Just please have an '05 guy throw out the first pitch." I would've taken Pablo Ozuna after today's debacle.

Carl Everett, we can go show him Sue's body and he could say, "Nope, that thing's not real," and then he could throw out the first pitch.

Ugh.

Yeah, we didn't get to hear Stroking.

He's got the same exact skills.

By the way, 802 Texter, Carl Everett did say that dinosaurs do not exist.

Oh, that's great.

Classic.

So like there's, there's been a wider...

I, Carl Everett.

Carl Everett was Truthasaurus on the, on the Sox, uh-

[laughs]

... championship winning team.

Mm-hmm.

What did, what, what happened? The Red Sox pinch hit Carl Everett and smoked a single off Mussina with two outs in the ninth inning with two strikes.

Then got pulled out of the game for a pinch hitter.

Uh, a pinch runner.

Yeah, it happens.

You know, it's not gonna hurt that much to completely gut your, your bullpen, to gut your bench, to, to leave everybody out.

I mean, if, if I ha- smell blood, I'm going for it.

Now, what does that look like? Does that look like a pinch hit hitting John Carlos Satan in the third inning if I got runners on second and third with one out? Probably not.
