It didn’t take long for the hot stove to turn white hot at the MLB Winter Meetings in San Diego. Amid a plethora of rumors, two significant transactions were made; one involving a trade and the other regarding a free agent signing. For the second straight...

While the American League Championship Series is all set to go, the National League side of the postseason is still stuck in the Divisional Series. On Monday, the Washington Nationals staved off elimination behind a solid effort from right-hander Doug Fister. After...

It’s a new day, and no, there has still been no news on the Napoli contract front. The two sides are evidently still apart on a contract, and while the Red Sox front office continues to express optimism that the deal will get done, there’s still nothing more...

Happy Hump Day everyone! This should go without saying, but Dan Shaughnessy will never be in these links. That shot at the Houston Texans? Not very smart. The Killer Bs swarm SB Nation’s Top 20 Red Sox Prospects list, taking the first three spots. Honestly, with...

If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I’ve never been a fan of narratives in sports. I know a good story is fun to follow, but too often, the media takes a story and beats it to death with terrifying efficiency. Just ask your friendly neighborhood...

Hello everyone! It’s the final day of 2012! I know you all are busy setting up a party celebrating the end of the year, so I’ll get straight to the links post. Also, don’t forget the chips & dip. Very important. The dumpster fire known as the...

Hello again, everyone! I’ve got another batch of links for you to read while resting from the fast & furious shopping binge you’re on, thanks to all these after-Christmas sales… Since the pieces in the Joel Hanrahan trade are supposedly being...

The 2012 Baseball Winter Meetings will be held in Nashville on Monday through Wednesday. Let’s take a look at some of the free agents and non-tendered players that the Red Sox may be interested in. As everybody knows, Boston is looking for a first baseman, and...

Push is coming to shove for the Red Sox to find a first baseman. Mike Napoli should have a home soon, while Adam LaRoche is drawing interest from multiple teams. If he goes back to the Nats, then Washington will have to trade Mike Morse. Oh yeah, Nick Swisher is still...
