It didn’t take long for things to go wrong for the Red Sox on Wednesday. In his third start of the season, Rubby De La Rosa was touched up for three runs in the bottom of the first inning. Adam Jones opened up the scoring for Baltimore with a one out RBI double,...

The human heart is essential for life. It pumps blood through our system and without it, a person can’t live. The same applies to the heart of a baseball order and a team’s success. A team could have a flailing heart that could lead to a dead offense, much...

Around this time ever year, we hit that tipping point where most of the offseason’s notable moves have already occurred. Sure, there are some free agents left to sort out (I.E. Stephen Drew, Nelson Cruz, Ubaldo Jimenez, etc.), but for the most part, the bigger pieces...

After doing this fora few months, you start to realize how much you’re gonna miss it. How fun it was to see an awful team’s lineup and make decent analogies all for the sake of making this not mind-meltingly boring. Then you realize that the Red Sox play...

There’s a very good chance the Red Sox can clinch the division this week. Hell, they can win a playoff spot tonight if they win and Cleveland loses. So why not just keep on winning? This time, they’ll have a chance to deal a fatal blow to the Baltimore...

ESPN’s standings currently have the Red Sox sitting at a 99.9% chance of making the playoffs. So is it a lock that Boston will once against be dancing in October? Of course not! But just how close are they to winning the AL East? Even if the Red Sox go a modest 7-8...

So the Red Sox pull of a good road trip, finally get back home, and who do they face? The Orioles. Cue the frustration of not getting hits and watching the BABIP dragons just ignore Baltimore for the majority of the series.Well, at least it’s at home, right?...

Last year’s AL MVP race may have been the most memorable in recent memory. In one corner, you had Miguel Cabrera: the league’s top slugger, freshly minted as the first Triple Crown winner since Carl Yastrzemski. In the other, 20-year-old Mike Trout, who compiled a...

Now would be a really, really convenient time for the Red Sox to start hitting again. Just spray those line drives all over the pl- oh. They’re playing the Orioles. Whelp, time to consider every line drive hit as an out, since all Baltimore does is catch them....

Listen, I love Bill Simmons as much as you can love someone that you’ve never met (other than you, Dustin, don’t you worry your place is secure). I’ve read everything that he’s written since 2000. I may not have survived the tumultuous and ultimately triumphant...
