Ryan Lavarnway was once the favourite son in Boston. Once primed to inherit full-time catching duties from Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Lavarnway now appears to be somewhere around fifth or sixth on the depth chart. He’s probably the first (or maybe third) line of...

Through one full rotation of the starters, the Boston Red Sox stand at 2-3 and have lost two straight at Fenway Park to the Milwaukee Brewers due to lack of offensive and bullpen struggles after the bullpen did not allow a single run in the Baltimore Orioles series....
