I know the season’s only six games young, but the Red Sox are returning home with the AL East lead, so there’s something to make your Monday a bit more chipper.
- It only a few months ago that the Red Sox endured their worst season in 50 years. But what’s done is done. This year…this year is something different entirely. (Days of 2011-12 long gone)
- BREAKING: Reports of total devastation of Toronto are true. Massive bombs have wrecked the city’s heart, most notably the Rogers Centre. (Six Sox Homers Sink Jays)
- The culprit in laying waste to the Blue Jays? None other than the creator of #WakeAndRake himself, Will Middlebrooks. Beautiful stuff, ain’t it? (Red Sox’ Will Middlebrooks puts on a show)
- Flying in under the radar was a fantastic performance by Jon Lester, who didn’t give Toronto a chance to strike back whatsoever. (Salty on Lester: ‘This is definitely the best I’ve seen him’)
- When he isn’t working towards becoming the prime example of a feel-good story, Daniel Nava occasionally visits first base to try out his glove. (Nava handles a day of firsts)
- It’s been a while, but the Red Sox finally come home with some wins already under their belts. Opening Day, Part II begins today. (Red Sox coming home happy)
- Time to reinforce the troops! The shortstop battalion gets some help, as Stephen Drew looks to return to battle on Wednesday. (Stephen Drew on track to join Red Sox on Wednesday)
- I’ve always been a fan of Jeff Sullivan, and the fact that he’s doing stuff like this is unbelievably awesome. (The Worst of the Best: The Week’s Wildest Pitches)
One more factoid for your guys: Boston’s committed exactly zero errors! *fanatically punches nearest 2×4*
