April showers? Not this time. It’s actually quite sunny out, with a good chance of the Red Sox winning in the forecast.
- Can you really blame Jarrod Saltalamacchia for this? What’s worse is that the guy blames himself for it all. Not the best of situations here. (Saltalamacchia’s error looms large after loss)
- Coming to Boston after 2012 wasn’t an easy decision. It’s not like LeBron James wanted to team up with his buddies here. The Sox had to work to get these guys. (How Red Sox Convinced These New Guys Boston Was The Place To Be)
- And a result of all that hard work? An April beyond our wildest dreams. Well, maybe not wildest, because that could be applied pretty liberally. (Hitting a high note: Sox set to conclude a fantastic April)
- Ah, the hapless Houston Astros. But seriously, how great of a punching bag are they? They are the cure to any losing streak you encounter. (The Red Sox and the benefits of facing the Astros)
- Andrew Bailey has closed it out in terms of the 9th inning – it’s all his to lose now. Joel Hanrahan will have to sit and wait for his turn. (Hanrahan returns; Bailey to remain as closer)
- “Hi, my name’s David Ortiz, and I’d like to dedicate this to my previously injured heels: COME AT ME BRO.” (David Ortiz continues to wield big bat for Sox)
- I despise you, Nelson Cruz. You and your boomstick bat thing that you keep hitting Boston over the head with. (Finding the arch-nemeses of every American League team)
No really, there’s like no April showers here in Phoenix. The high was 103*F yesterday.
