Over the next month, there will be several roster moves with Boston that could leave the team looking very different than it does right now. In fact, the outfield could be completely revamped. Let’s look at the pending decisions that have to be made…...

After last night’s tough loss in Miami, the Red Sox sit a full seven games out of first place. Of course, if last season taught us anything, it’s that as long as a team is not mathematically eliminated, it’s never too late to make a run. Yet, it’s hard to look at this...

<a title=" First of all, I’d like to apologize for not being around much lately. In the middle of a wonderful weekend in New York City, I managed to suffer a scratched cornea. Yes, that’s about as comfortable as it sounds. After several days of...

The Boston Red Sox (15-19) finish their current homestand with a two-game series against the Seattle Mariners (16-20). The Mariners aren’t setting the world on fire lately but are 5-5 in their last 10 games, which is pretty good for the Mariners. Then again, the...
