Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

just the question was about postseason success and also if he is going to be playing with Venezuela in the WBC.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

I think what my postseason, what is,

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

The reason for my postseason success is just going out there and having fun and enjoying my time out on the mound.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

And I think that's led to a lot of positive results.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

As far as the WBC, I would love to.

Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

I would really love to play for Venezuela, but no updates there right now.

I guess for Ranger Craig, in this day and age, it's like velocity, velocity, velocity.

Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Why do you think, Ranger, you've been able to thrive without that 100-mile-an-hour philosophy?

And Craig, along those same lines, what drew you to him despite the big radar ratings?

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Yeah, I think, you know, if you have really good command of your pitches and are able to mix them well, you don't really need 100.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

And that's kind of what I do.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Yeah, in my case, that's what's given me the most success.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Again, for Craig, you always say there's no such thing as too much starting pitching.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Do you feel like now you're close to having enough?

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Yeah, it was actually pretty easy.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Whenever I would train, it was with the mindset of a starting pitcher.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Everything that I would do leading up to games would be in that way.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

And when they asked me if I wanted to be a starter, I said it was an easy yes because it's something that I have always seen myself as.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

I haven't spoken to Carlos Narvaez yet, we haven't met, but we have played the Red Sox when I was with the Phillies before and got to see him from afar and was really impressed with how he handles the starters in particular.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

You know, Crochet, Bello, how he handles those guys.
