The human heart is essential for life. It pumps blood through our system and without it, a person can’t live. The same applies to the heart of a baseball order and a team’s success. A team could have a flailing heart that could lead to a dead offense, much...

Part Two of this homestand is a three-game set against the lowly White Sox, which will inevitably make many a writer use a “clever” Sox pun headline. I mean, we’ve seen these teams play each other quite a bit, guys, you don’t need to be...

The Red Sox, having swept the hapless Minnesota Twins, continue their road trip by coming to Chicago’s South Side to take on the White Sox in a four-game series. The 10-8 White Sox are currently in a tie for first in the American League Central (with the Tigers...

JD Drew. The greatest example of Sabermetrics vs. The Human Eye. For two years now, I have defended JD Drew as a player. For two years now, I have–at the same time–agreed with the detractors of the contract that he initially signed during the 2007...

Jay Bruce and Adam Dunn both hit solo homers to help lead the Reds past the Boston Red Sox in a 3-1 decision. Boston’s only run came in the top of the fourth inning on an RBI single by Manny Ramirez.

The Red Sox hit a bump in the road over the weekend and through Monday in the Metrodome, losing three of four mainly due to lackluster starts from Lester, Wakefield and Buchholz. Still, Boston sits above its competition in the American League with a 24-17 record and...

Well, if Mike Lowell decides not to come back to Boston the move of Kevin Youkilis to third base seems logical. Who would replace YOOOOOUUUKKK? The answer lies in the obvious and the not so obvious. The obvious: is calling up Jeff Bailey (.245/15/60) from Pawtucket in...
