It’s that time again for a new poll! Before we get into it, the old poll yielded some interesting results. It asked who of recently-linked names to the Red Sox you fans would like to see sign with the Red Sox. I allowed multiple voting, so some people may have...

Ben Cherington and the Boston Red Sox delegation returned from the GM Meetings this past week with much to consider. The GM meetings are seen by most as a time to begin feeling out other teams, consider trades and engage in discussions with agents. The Red Sox did a...

It’s that time again for a new poll. The Red Sox have been linked to quite a few free agents lately. Most notably, these names include Hiroki Kuroda, Nick Swisher, Russell Martin, Mike Napoli, Adam LaRoche, Anibal Sanchez and Torii Hunter. Out of these names,...

Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve taken a long look at the Red Sox’s current roster. I’ve reviewed player performance, examined contract situations, and made assessments of each player’s future in Bostonin 2013. (See Part 1 on Position Players and Part...

When the Red Sox have selected their new manager, one of the biggest tasks in front of them will be to find a first baseman. That’s not easy, as the free-agent class is fairly weak in that category and the Sox have no obvious fits in the organization. But...

After avoiding a sweep at the hands of the Orioles, the Boston Red Sox (29-28) welcome the Washington Nationals (32-23) for a three-game series at Fenway Park. Led by the stellar Stephen Strasburg and the phenom Bryce Harper, the Nationals have surprised the baseball...

Jon Lester improved to 9-0 in his career against the Baltimore Orioles with the help of the long ball. David Ortiz smashed a three-run home run and Adam LaRoche hit a two-run shot pacing the Boston offense. Lester struck out nine batters over seven plus innings on...

Instead of disabling Mark Kotsay with his calf issues, the Sox have opted to waive him and his .257/.291/.324 line on the year. He just never could get in the groove. This opens up a 25-man spot for Adam LaRoche (and a 40-man spot for Chris Duncan). This leaves Rocco...

Theo Epstein was on a conference call today, and Extra Bases dishes by saying the LaRoche deal had been in the works for months and was not a knee-jerk reaction to the recent offensive struggles. LaRoche will not be activated until Friday (the Sox have an off-day...
