SCOTT ATCHISON RUMORS

Felix Doubront, Scott Atchison Surprise Many by Being Most Reliable Pitchers on Red Sox Staff

BOSTON –– Back in the spring, the starting rotation and bullpen was a puzzle. Three months ago in Fort Myers, Red Sox skipper Bobby Valentine inherited the task of rummaging through unproven youngsters, cast-off veterans and borderline big leaguers in order to assemble a reputable pitching staff. Amid all the uncertainty, it appeared that Valentine would need lean heavily on...

Scott Atchison, One of Major League Baseball’s Best Relievers?

Scott Atchison of the Boston Red Sox is a 36 year old right handed relief pitcher who kind of looks like he’s 46. Atchison doesn’t throw very hard and doesn’t have great breaking stuff  but he gets big league hitters out. Scott was drafted in the 49th round of the 1998 draft and made his debut with the Mariners in 2004. He spent all of 2006 and all of 2008 and...

Relievers are constantly under pressure and scrutiny. On any given day at any given time, they could be called upon to pitch out of the bullpen. Before getting married and having a child, Scott Atchison occasionally succumbed to the stress of the job. As a starter in the Mariners' farm system, he allowed the frustrations to tug away at him. But he's adapted over time. These...

Your Morning Dump...At least the bullpen is looking better

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. Mortensen allowed two hits over 3 1/3 innings and struck out five without a walk. In two appearances since being called up, he has allowed one run in 6 1/3 innings and struck out 11. “Itâ€â€...

Scott Atchison Steadies Red Sox' Bullpen Ship In Three-Inning Stint

Scott Atchison packed his bags last week and walked out of JetBlue Park unsure of his status. Over the past two seasons, the pitcher has grown used to shuttling back and forth between Triple-A Pawtucket and the Red Sox roster. In Monday's 4-2 victory the Blue Jays, the reliever cemented his worth in the bullpen, tossing three scoreless innings to earn the win. The 36-year-old...

Atchison stays with Sox after being DFA'd

Ten days ago when the Red Sox signed Cody Ross they designated Scott Atchison for assignment. His waiver period passed and no one claimed him, so Scott heads to Pawtucket and will be in Florida for Spring Training, reports Maureen Mullen. I have a soft spot for Atchison, if only for his excellent first name. But he's been relatively successful for Boston as well, considering...

Red Sox decline options on two relievers

The (not-so-) lucky guys? Dan Wheeler and Scott Atchison. But both could be back, says the Globe's Peter Abraham. Atchison's option was for the 2012 MLB minimum plus $200,000. He remains on the 40-man roster and is not eligible for arbitration. So the Sox could simply tender him an offer at the minimum or slightly above and retain him. Wheeler is a Type B free agent. So...
