The Red Sox continued their series with the Houston Astros over the weekend, and wound up splitting the 4 game set at 2 games a side. After picking up a 9-4 victory on Thursday, Boston dropped a 10 inning bout with Houston the following night. Clay Buchholz was solid...

With another week of baseball in the books for the 2014 season the Red Sox remain the cellar dwellers of the AL East. Despite playing putrid baseball for the majority of the season, the Red Sox just turned in one of their most productive weeks of baseball; going 4-2...

For the second straight night, the Red Sox were propelled to a victory on the strength of a Yoenis Cespedes 8th inning home run. However, unlike his tie-breaking home run on Sunday, Cespedes’ blast on Tuesday night came with the Red Sox trailing by a run. Brock...

Little has gone as planned in 2014 for the Red Sox, and the club’s furious dealing prior to last Thursday’s trade deadline was direct evidence of that fact. GM Ben Cherington shipped off one veteran after another in hopes of re-tooling the roster for the 2015...

A pair of rookies squared off in the series finale of a 4 game set between the Red Sox and Blue Jays on Thursday. The Red Sox sent 25 year-old Rubby De La Rosa to the mound, while Toronto countered with the former 2012 first round draft pick, Marcus Stroman. After De...

The Red Sox snapped their 6 game winning streak with a 7-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night. In what could be his last start as a Red Sox, Jake Peavy pitched 5 effective innings before watching the wheels come off in the 6th and 7th. As has been the case...

Don’t look now, but the Red Sox are streaking with exactly 10 day to go before the July 31st trade deadline. Over the weekend, Boston took 3 straight from the Kansas City Royals, and improved their season record to 46-52. On Friday, it was Clay Buchholz who got...

Dating back to the final two games of the Chicago White Sox series, the 2013 World Series Champion Boston Red Sox have now won seven of their last eight games. While this is all well and good, I unfortunately now believe it has fostered a sense of hope among Red Sox...

The Red Sox won last night. They beat the Kansas City Royals, 5-4. Bucholtz got the win, Scott Downs was credited with the loss, and Koji notched save number 19. Just another night in Boston. Admittedly, that win felt very good. I’m trying not to delude myself into...
