David Price has had a 12 year career so far, playing for the Rays, Tigers, Blue Jays, Red Sox and now the Dodgers though he did opt out of the 2020 season due to coronavirus concerns. His rookie season the Rays had a deep post season run before losing to the Phillies in the World Series. Down the stretch and in the playoffs Price was the Rays secret weapon. He had a 1.93 ERA in limited action in the regular season but in the playoffs he close 5 crucial games against the Red Sox and eventually the Phillies in the Fall Classic.

Price had big expectations and after a bit of a sophomore slump he really turned it on. In his Rays career of full seasons from 2009-2013 he had a 3.21 ERA averaging a 14-8 record with 30 starts and 200 ish innings. In mid 2014 he was traded to the Tigers and had a average debut in a half season with them. He went 4-4 with a 3.59 ERA in 11 starts. Then for the first half of 2015 he was Cy Young level for the Tigers going 9-4 with a 2.53 Era in 21 starts.

At midseason he was again traded this time to the Blue Jays, a team who needed an ace if they were to make a playoff run. He was even better with them pitching to a 9-1 record with a 2.30 ERA in 11 starts. His numbers were good enough after that season to come second in the Cy Young voting.

In the offseason he signed a 7 year, 217 million dollar deal to pitch for the Red Sox. In his 4 year career with the Red Sox he averaged a 12-6 record with a 3.84 record, he had a few injuries and he didn’t pitch as many innings as the Sox probably wanted. In the 2019 offseason he was traded with Mookie Betts to the Dodgers in an obvious salary dump. If Price keeps pitching at Red Sox level for maybe 6-7 more years he may be a possible Hall of Famer.
