David Ortiz wants it to happen. Should you? The lead in the Wild Card standings is down to two games and the starting rotation continues to be the Red Sox biggest weakness. While I appreciate the effort from guys like Tim Wakefield and Kyle Weiland, they’re not...

What happens when you don’t have Red Sox tickets but you want Red Sox tickets? Good luck if you try to use the scalpers outside Fenway Park. “Tickets…tickets? Buyin’ or selling? Buyin’ or selling?” Pass. I once tried to get tickets...

I don’t think I could ever attempt to explain the streaks this team has been through in 2011, but being that the worst of them came at the very beginning and the very end they sure leave a bad taste in every one’s mouth. Obviously this isn’t some...
