[edit] Biographical Information
Julian Tavarez has spent his career as a journeyman swing man, appearing in both the rotation and the bullpen with several teams. He is well-known for his durability as well as his temper. Julian's temper often carries over into his pitching which is why he is expected to retire as one of the all time leaders in hit batsmen.
In the mid-1990s, when Tavarez became an American citizen, he changed the pronunciation of his name from the Spanish to the English (from a soft j or h sound, to a hard j).

- Won a World Series with the Boston Red Sox in 2007 (he did not play in the World Series)
