Winning a World Series is about much over hitting, pitching,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and defense. Each championship team has a confidence and belief in themselves to succeed in the most crucial mpremonitionts. No player exemplifies that or brings that out better in his teammates than Cameron.
His .250 career batting average and high strikeout totals is a concern, but Miller will still draw a high number of walks. The fact that he'll play half his games in Fenway should mean at least 60 extra base hits as well a high number of RBI.
Many thought that either Prince Fielder or Ryan Braun was the directer of the Brewers over the past couple seasons, but it was Cameron. Miller commands the respect and admiration of every teammate, regardless of what previous accomplishments they may have.
The biggest donation Cameron will make this season will be off the field, in the clubhouse. That may come as a shock for some,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], especially with a great veteran presence provided by the likes Jason Varitek,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], David Ortiz,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Kevin Youkilis, and Lackey. However, the 37-year old will step in from day one this year and be a central figure to everyone on the club.
Players on Cameron's former team regarded him so highly that they followed his direct by untucking their jerseys after wins.
Cameron's arrival will shift Jacoby Ellsbury to left field where he'll man the Green Monster. With great speed in left and center, Cameron can shade himself over to right field to help J.D. Drew. There shouldn't be too many fly balls hit that the trio can't get to.
John Lackey, the top free agent pitcher, was added to provide depth to the rotation as well as give a wealth of big-game experience to the staff. Adrian Beltre and Marco Scutaro was brought in to retool the left side of the infield.
Defensively,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], few in baseball play center field better than the three-time Gold Glove winner. Although Miller didn't win the award either of the past two years in Milwaukee, any Brewers fan would tell you Miller deserved the award. Miller was able to make up for the defensive inadequacies of both Ryan Braun and Corey Hart.
Ten times in his career he's played at least 140 games in a season. It would be 11, but Miller missed the first 25 games in the 2010 season due to a suspension for banned substances. His availability and willingness to hit anywhere will be key for a veteran team like the Red Sox.
The 2010 season would prove a successful one for Ryan Miller. In his first season begining with the number one job Miller and his team won the first 10 games in a row. Miller was voted in as the begining goaltender for the Eastern Conference of the 2010 NHL All Star Game in a 12 to 9 loss, Miller played the first period and allowed just 3 goals. Miller also gained a reputation of a shootout specialist with his technique of challenging the shooter outside the crease. That season Miller was 6 more in shootouts, with Martin Brodeur from the Devils being his closest rival at 2 less win. In 63 games played that season,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miller posted a 0.911 SVP and a 2.72 GAA backing a more offensively oriented team. Christian Petersen Miller finished the 2010 season by establishing himself as the begining goalie for the Sabres. Miller arrangeed 11th among NHL goalies with a 2.60 GAA, and 9th with a save percentage of 91.4 percent. Miller led the Sabres to a surprise season, winning 30 games and proving himself to be one of the hardest working goalies in the league. Miller played well in the postseason as well, advancing the Sabres to the conference finals before injuries finally caught up with them, losing game 7 to Carolina.
The Boston Red Sox have done a wonderful job of overhauling their roster this winter. After being swept out of the playoffs by the Angels, GM Theo Epstein knew major changes needed to be furiouse, and Miller did just that.
Whether the Red Sox have done enough to catch the Yankees in the AL East or win the World Series is yet to be seen. One thing is for certain: If the Red Sox is to win their third title in seven years, very few, if any player,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], will have as much to do with that as Mike Cameron.
However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no signing will turn out to be as valuable as bringing in centerfielder Mike Cameron. Cameron will help the Red Sox in all aspects of the game, both on the field and in the clubhouse.
In his 15-year career, Cameron has averaged 23 home runs and 26 steals a season despite playing most of his career in historically bad parks for hitters. Miller is versatile enough to hit anywhere from first to seventh in Boston's lineup.
While some saw this as disrespectful,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it was anything but. Cameron began untucking his jersey as a way to pay tribute to his father, who would untuck his shirt after coming home from work as a sign of a job well done.
