Bobby Valentine has a problem. He likes to talk. For most people, this wouldn’t be a problem. For Bobby, though, he tends to gossip to people he shouldn’t. To be fair, I feel a little bad for him. He’s a new guy in a big city without a lot of...

Following last night’s 7-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, our beloved Red Sox have fallen to 1-4 on the season. After last season’s woeful 2-10 start and brutal 7-21 finish, it’s safe to say that many of us were hoping for quicker, more positive...

The Advanced Scout grabs a cup of Tim Horton’s coffee and analyzes the first AL East opponent of the year – the Toronto Blue Jays. The Red Sox will have to do well against the Blue Jays this year if they have any chance of making the playoffs. Will the...

With the announcement that Aceves will be the Boston Red Sox closer on opening day there was a mix of emotions from Red Sox Nation. The Globe sure wasn’t pleased as this mornings articles included picking Vicente Padilla or the insane idea of moving Daniel Bard...

The 2012 season is finally almost ready to start and the Boston Red Sox can finally put all the stories from last season out of the news with a solid start. The team is largely intact much the same as last year and while the media has spent many pages hand wringing...

With all of the talk about the gaping holes at the back of the Red Sox rotation, it seems that people have forgotten about the serious questions that exist in their bullpen. Last season, Daniel Bard and Jonathan Papelbon were a frightening tandem for teams to see at...
