Mark Buehrle turns 45 today. Mark came to us in the big trade with the Miami Marlins, which won us the off-season before the 2012 season. Buehrle, Emilio Bonifacio, John Buck, Josh Johnson, Jose Reyes came over from Florida, for Henderson Alvarez, Anthony DeSclafani, Yunel Escobar, Adeiny Hechavarria, Jake Marisnick, Jeff Mathis and Justin Nicolino. Mark wasn’t the primary piece that Alex Anthopoulos wanted in the deal.
He gave us the feeling that we could be pitchers. He was Batman, not Superman. We could work hard enough to be him. We all know we can’t throw 100 mph, but we could hit the high 70s , and if we had learned to hit those spots, we could be him. We know we can’t throw as hard as Nate Pearson, but we think that we could have been Buehrle if we had worked enough. He’s had deeper hot and cold stretches than I figured he would.
