The Boston Red Sox (15-19) finish their current homestand with a two-game series against the Seattle Mariners (16-20). The Mariners aren’t setting the world on fire lately but are 5-5 in their last 10 games, which is pretty good for the Mariners. Then again, the...

The Red Sox (11-16) get out of town, and none too soon, to play a three-game series against the lowly Kansas City Royals (9-18). The Royals have some talent but not enough to, you know, consistently win. The Royals will host the 2012 MLB All-Star Game to celebrate the...

The 16-9 Baltimore Orioles come to Fenway Park for the weekend to play three games against the cellar-dwelling 11-13 Boston Red Sox. The Orioles are in second place in the American League East? And they are pitching well? Is this 1971? STARTING PITCHERS –...

The Boston Red Sox (10-11) return to Fenway Park tonight after an almost perfect 6-1 road trip to take on the Oakland Athletics (11-12) in the first of a three-game set. The Athletics have played better than expected so far in 2012 but, as always, the question is for...
