“Baseball is a marathon, not a sprint.” How often have you been told that, with respect to the baseball season, no single day nor no single event matters more than the collective performance over a 162 game season? When looking at individual performance, I...

Tom Werner says that Theo Epstein is “burning the midnight oil” for an impact trade. The article specifically mentions Roy Halladay and Victor Martinez. Is there no middle ground for Victor Martinez? As NESN.com rounds up, the Indians reportedly rejected a...

Boston has made a couple of moves before the trade deadline but the best move to break this slump will be a day off and a return home. Nick Green was Boston’s only offense last night hitting a solo homer in the third inning. That lead was quickly erased by Ian...

Adam LaRoche and Chris Duncan in, Julio Lugo and prospects out….but none of them will be an impact in today’s game. With the Yankees win today already in the books, tonight is all about Clay Buchholz.

The second half starts with a bang and without Julio Lugo to kick around. Clay Buchholz gets the nod tonight in a cameo appearance with the big club. With Mike Lowell back, and Lowrie on the way tomorrow, the Red Sox will get a good look at what their potential...

Leave it to the Red Sox to give us some news to keep us amped up through the break. They have recalled Clay Buchholz from AAA and he will be starting on Friday at Toronto. This also means that they will be moving to a six man rotation (Buchholz, Penny, Lester, Smoltz,...

The 2009 Boston Red Sox are halfway through their season, 49-32 through their first 81 games. The Red Sox not only hold a 1.5 game lead over the New York Yankees in the American League East, but also the best record in the American League, trailing over the Dodgers...
