After losing two of three to the Texas Rangers, the Boston Red Sox (55-57, 10 games back in the AL East) start a 10-game roadtrip with a 4-game skein against the Cleveland Indians (51-60, 9.5 games back in the AL Central). The Red Sox are 4-6 in their last 10 games...

The statement “they’re not booing, they’re saying “Yoooouuuuukkkk” may never be more relevant than it will be tomorrow night. There’s no real reason to believe that Boston fans would ever greet Kevin Youkilis with a smattering of boos, other than the simple fact that...

Oh, no he didn’t! He don’t know Nick! He don’t know Nick! Shut up! Shut up! You know he looks good. You just jealous! Oh, I’m sorry. I was just channeling my “Jerry Springer white trash” persona for a second. Why would I do...

<a title=" First of all, I’d like to apologize for not being around much lately. In the middle of a wonderful weekend in New York City, I managed to suffer a scratched cornea. Yes, that’s about as comfortable as it sounds. After several days of...

Ok, boys and girls. By now you know the drill. People ask Nick questions, I intervene and answer correctly on his behalf. All “questioners” will remain nameless unless they truly deserve to be mocked. Luckily, no one has to be outed this...

Josh Beckett Cares? Well, that does it. Josh Beckett proves once again that he hates the Red Sox, doesn’t like being a baseball player, and cares only about taking down the clubhouse from the inside. Oh, I’m sorry. What was that? He hurled seven...

The Red Sox dragged their sorry butts out of town and will try to get healthy by taking on the 5-11 Minnesota Twins in the first game of a seven-game road trip. The Twins look like a carbon-copy of the Red Sox so far – the top of the order hitting well, the...

I haven’t been this angry with a game in nearly two-and-a-half years. I’m serious. Not even during last September’s epic 7-20 slide that pushed the Red Sox out of the playoffs was I ever this angry. Confused, yes, but never angry. For whatever...

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...
