The 37-year-old Texas native spent 14 years in the major leagues with the then-Florida Marlins, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers before retiring after the 2014 season. He posted a 3.88 ERA and 1.23 WHIP across 335 regular-season appearances.
Along with the World Series MVP, his resume includes three All-Star Game selections and two championships, one with the Marlins in 2003 and another with the Red Sox in 2007. He also threw a no-hitter for L.A. against the Philadelphia Phillies in 2014.
