In a way, baseball is like the game of thrones: you win or you die – in baseball’s case, the media skewers you with verbal & written attacks, so in a way, it’s more like a character assassination. Not to say that GoT doesn’t have actual...

With the Red Sox well out of contention in the American League playoff standings, Boston welcomed in Wild Card hopefuls, the Toronto Blue Jays over the weekend. Embracing their role as spoilers, the Red Sox took 2 of 3 games in the weekend series, and kept the Jays 5...

Surprise, surprise. The Red Sox are out of it. Okay, that may not be STRICTLY true, strictly as in mathematically speaking. To be precise, Boston’s elimination number remains at 11. Their elimination number being the number of losses (or wins by a leading team)...

Clay Buchholz has pitched in a Red Sox uniform for eight years now, and he remains a mystery, someone who can equally dazzle and frustrate from start to start (or often, inning to inning). One year, Buchholz performs like the best pitcher in baseball for the first...

Just when it seemed like Clay Buchholz was finding himself on the mound, the Red Sox right-hander took a giant step backwards on Wednesday night. The 29-year old endured his first bad start since the start of the month, as he allowed 6 earned run in as many innings...

Make no mistake: Clay Buchholz has been gruelingly awful. Buchholz has been hopping back and forth over the 6.00 ERA fence for the last few weeks. He’s fallen so precipitously from his heavenly 2013 grace – in which he had a 1.74 ERA/2.74 FIP/3.41 xFIP...
