When the St. Louis Cardinals released Felipe Lopez last week, no one batted an eye around these parts. The Cards said good riddance to their malcontent utility infielder and your or I could have cared less. It amounts to a footnote in late September for most fans, but...

Last night, Clay Buchholz went eight solid innings allowing only one earned run on five hits over eight innings while striking out five and walking one. The effort resulted in his 17th win of the season and lowered his ERA to 2.33. With only one more start to finish...

When it’s late September and you are sitting at Fenway Park in the freezing cold, staring at the scoreboard, you expect it to read something like: Boston 91-62 (–) New York 91-61 (1/2) Tampa Bay 87-66 (4) Toronto 73-80 (18) Baltimore 64-89 (27) Instead, in...

See you later, Mike Lowell. It was fun for a while there. By now you know that Lowell is retiring at the end of 2010 following a 12-year career in which he collected three World Series rings (New York ’98, Florida ’03, Boston ’07), a World Series MVP and a legacy that...
