After winning two of three against the Athletics, the Boston Red Sox (14-7, 2 games ahead in the AL East) welcome the newest member of the junior circuit, the Houston Astros (7-14, tied for 4th in the AL West), to Fenway Park for a four-game series. The Red Sox are...

After getting swept by the Angels, the Boston Red Sox (62-70, 14 games back in the AL East) travel north on their final West Coast trip of the season to take on the Oakland Athletics (73-57, 4 games back in the AL West). The Athletics are 8-2 in their last 10 and have...

Having earned a split against the surprisingly tough Seattle Mariners, the Boston Red Sox (42-37, 6-4 in the last 10 games) travel to Oakland for a three-game set against the Athletics (38-42, 4-6 in the last 10 games). Billy Beane has always loved young pitchers and...

If you haven’t heard, the Yankees claimed 1B Chris Carter off waivers from the Red Sox, blocking him from heading to the Mets as part of the Billy Wagner trade. The Sox revoked the waiver claim, so Carter remains with the Red Sox until the offseason, when he can...

Yesterday, first baseman Jeff Bailey suffered a high-ankle strain trying to make a play on Brad Penny’s acrobatic flip to first base Saturday. He’s likely to hit the disabled list, a loss given that the Sox are about to face two left-handed pitchers. How...

Finally. After struggling to score runs — let alone win games — the Pawtucket Red Sox ended one of the more painful droughts in franchise history. The PawSox entered Saturday’s game against the Buffalo Bisons having lost five of last seven games and...

Dustin Pedroia, you say you are experiencing cold-like symptoms? Boom! 15-day DL. Jason Varitek, you say that you don’t feel quite like you did when were 31 years old? See ya! 15-day DL. So they aren’t that careful with their personnel. But they are...

Nick Green and Chris Carter are your final members of the 2009 Opening Day Boston Red Sox, Sean McAdams reports. Carter grabs the “Kotsay spot” and should see time at first and DH until Kotsay returns in May. Green will back up the infield until Julio Lugo...

The Red Sox have shut down minor league pitcher Michael Bowden (stay tuned for Mike Scandura’s interview with him tomorrow) and the No-Hit Kid, Clay Buchholz, who as we all know, had a rough season this year. Hopefully he comes into spring training ready to do...

Chris Carter is the answer to a trivia question: Who’s the player Boston obtained from the Washington Nationals for strikeout-prone Wily Mo Pena? But there’s nothing trivial about what Carter’s doing for the Pawtucket Red Sox this season. Through...
