I know SOME of you are still hanging on to that last thread of hope, daydreaming of an epic September run that rouses up a David vs. Goliath battle where Tampa and New York collapse under the forces of Darnell McDonald and Jed Lowrie. Someone out there still thinks...

Last night’s 6-0 victory over the Angels didn’t gain the Sox any games in the standings. With the Yankees and Rays both victorious, Boston still sits five and a half games behind the AL East’s co-leaders. You’d be forgiven, though, if you felt...

Kevin Youkilis left last night’s game in the 4th inning with an ankle injury. At the moment, it appears he’ll be fine — the word out of Fenway is that he’ll be in the lineup tonight. Still, the sight of Youk leaving the game yesterday must have...
