Quickly updating a busy day for roster moves; Alex Cora was activated from the DL and will start for a still woozy Julio Lugo at SS tonight.

Justin Masterson, after pitching impressively today (thanks, bullpen), will be headed back to the minor leagues. Bryan Corey, recently released (and resigned) will come back to the bullpen. I doubt he’ll be around for long as Mike Lowell is coming back shortly...

Justin Masterson has officially been placed on the Red Sox’s 25-man roster. To make room, the Sox optioned Craig Hansen, who pitched pretty impressively I have to say. Looking like a Keith Foulke clone (his windup, not fastball), he showed a lot of promise with...

Mike Timlin has been activated off the disabled list, and Bryan Corey was removed from the roster to make room for Timlin. It was the right move, as much as I’m a fan of Corey. The move immediately lengthens the bullpen as Timlin can slot into a 7/8th inning...
by evan brunell | Apr 10, 2008 | Bryan Corey, David Aardsma, Javier Lopez, Mike Timlin
Mike Timlin is returning tomorrow, so another move in the bullpen will have to be made. For a variety of purposes, it is unlikely that Javier Lopez will be given the boot (2 IP, 2.50 WHIP, 9.00 ERA, 3 H, 2 BB, 2K). The choice likely comes down to either David Aardsma...

Clay Buchholz had a decent start compared to his last few surrendering three runs on six hits over five innings with seven strikeouts, but leave it to the Red Sox Pen to blow it open again.

Who should lose out on a bullpen spot (the other three you do not select will make it)? * Kyle Snyder 48% of all votes * Bryan Corey 23% of all votes * Javier Lopez 17% of all votes * David Aardsma 12% of all votes Looks like we all think we should keep the young...
by shawn medeiros | Mar 25, 2008 | Brandon Moss, Bryan Corey, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Hideki Okajima, Huston Street, Javier Lopez, Jonathan Papelbon, Kyle Snyder, Manny Ramirez, Oakland Athletics, Rich Harden
The stage was set for Daisuke Matsuzaka to have a big showing, but Brandon Moss and Manny Ramirez stole the spotlight. Down by one in the top of the ninth inning, Moss, who had an RBI single earlier in the ball game, drove a Houston Street low and inside fastball over...

You guessed it — we’re picking the Red Sox to repeat as American League East Division Champions. Coming off a World Series, the Red Sox will look to repeat and make it three titles in five years (shades of the Patriots). The Red Sox have a strong team...
