Will the Red Sox have another Billy Rohr in Eduardo Rodriguez? Time will tell.
Who was Billy Rohr? Rohr was a lanky left-hander who broke in with a bang in 1967. Rohr tossed a one hit shutout against the Yankees and went 8.2 innings of no-hit ball. Rohr followed that up with another outstanding performance and then the baseball roof caved in on the 21-year-old. Rohr hung around for two partial seasons and had an MLB line of 3-3 with an ERA of 5.64. Rohr pitched in the minors until 1972 and that was it.
