First of all, I would like to thank the Milwaukee Brewers organization for footing the tab on Bill Hall and most of his $8.5 million dollar salary. It’s nice every time Hall blasts a 400-foot shot over the Green Monster that I’m able to think, “Hey, that home run was...

Last night’s 6-0 victory over the Angels didn’t gain the Sox any games in the standings. With the Yankees and Rays both victorious, Boston still sits five and a half games behind the AL East’s co-leaders. You’d be forgiven, though, if you felt...

There’s no doubt the Sox recent injuries have done a number on the club’s chances of winning the AL East. So we thought it would be interesting to uncover how bleak — or rosy — the those chances have become. Prior to the slew of injuries that befell...

If you ever wondered what a nearly perfectly straight fastball looks like Bill Hall showed us Friday night. He threw 11 pitches and the average horizontal movement was about -2 inches, which is basically straight with about 10 inches of “rise”. His...

As the baseball season enters the second month, what is the lasting impression from the Red Sox start? The mighty struggles David Ortiz, and his decreased role as of late? Starting the month with two center-fielders in the outfield and finishing it with two...

Spring Training is only a day away, and it’s been a busy offseason for the Red Sox in 2010. The team struggled in the playoffs last year after putting up another solid regular season; tweaks were made to sew up the loose ends on the team’s defensive...

It’s been spread on Twitter that Casey Kotchman is headed to the Mariners for Bill Hall, a minor league PTBNL and cash considerations. When I first saw this deal I was curious to what this accomplished, but after looking at the numbers this makes a bit more...

With the Milwaukee Brewers coming to town, I went looking for some information on the Brewers. Al’s Ramblings was more than happy to answer my questions… The Brewers were considered by many to be the sexy pick to win the Central last year, but fell to the...

With the word being that Josh Beckett tore part of his skin on his middle right finger, the question now comes if Beckett can make his next scheduled start, set for this Friday against the Braves. This is a shame, because he’s faced the Braves many times and...
