The Red Sox’s deep and potent offense was one of the hallmarks of the club’s World Series run in 2013. From the top of the order to the bottom, Boston boasted hitters who could do damage to the opposition and also work the count, making it a tough task for opposing...

It took 12 innings to finish, but the Cleveland Indians completed their 3 game sweep of the Red Sox earlier this morning. While he didn’t factor into the final decision, Brandon Workman was decent in his second start of the season. After the young right hander...

As the old saying goes, “all good things must come to and end”. For the Red Sox, their “good thing” ended on Monday night, when the Cleveland Indians snapped Boston’s seven game winning streak. Former Red Sox pitcher Justin Masterson...

The Boston Red Sox are now 27-29 on the season after a perfect 7-0 week. The win on Monday ended a 10-game losing streak in which the Red Sox pitching was subpar and the hitting with runners in scoring position barely happened. Over the past week, the Red Sox pitching...

The Red Sox kept their winning streak alive over the weekend after sweeping a three game set against the Tampa Bay Rays. To kick off the series, the two division rivals nearly came to blows after David Price hit David Ortiz in the first inning and Mike Carp in the...

Today marked the end of the Red Sox 10-game losing streak, a dubious accomplishment that I can say I wouldn’t have expected from the defending champs. The Sox currently sit at 21-29, solidly in last place in the AL East. With still over 100 games remaining in the...

The Boston Red Sox stand at 20-22 after a tough three-game losing streak, including two straight at home against the Detroit Tigers. They have lost four of their last five contests and are 2.5 games behind both the Baltimore Orioles and the New York Yankees. Sure, the...

Will Middlebrooks had been back for several weeks, but a line drive off the bat of Ian Kinsler placed him yet again on the disabled list. The ball caused a non-displaced fracture in his right index finger. The 25-year-old slugger could be gone anywhere from two to...

One of the biggest strengths of last year’s Red Sox team was the strong performances the squad got from its bench spots. Indeed, Boston’s depth proved crucial in taking advantage of platoon pairings on a nightly basis, softening the blow of any injuries to starters,...

PAWTUCKET, R.I. – Somewhere in baseball’s book of clichés is the one that says all a manager can hope for from his starting pitcher is that he keeps his team in the game. That was the story Thursday afternoon when Pawtucket Red Sox right-hander Rubby De La Rosa...
