Curt Schilling will have his issues this season. Let’s just get that out of the way while we can. He won’t be a Roy Oswalt, a Johan Santana or a Roy Halladay-type ace, he won’t be a dynamic inning eater who totals up the strikeouts like no tomorrow,...

In 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Red Sox lost Opening Day and went on to make the playoffs. In 2006, Opening Day was won and … well, let’s not talk about what happened after that. Curt Schilling simply was not on today. He didn’t have it from the start...

Ah, our favorite team ’round these parts … what’s the team looking like this year? It’s strong. It’s not without its questions, but boy, this looks like a team to be reckoned with… Statistics code: AVG/OBP/SLG for hitters. W-L, ERA,...

Only four more days until baseball season. I may not be able to cover the entire game today both I will write about what I am able to see. As of now I’m watching Schilling’s start at the library. I’m going above and beyond my usual attempts to see...

One thing I’ve noticed Red Sox pitchers doing a lot this spring is not walking batters. Time and time again I keep hearing “he struck out (insert number here) and walked none.” It’s been happening a lot, so I wanted to see if it was just me or...

The Red Sox have sure had their share of them. Those blood red socks seem to breed eccentricity, from Ted Williams going pigeon shooting in the Fenway outfield to the 2004 team taking shots of whiskey prior to every game of the World Series. Even the spelling of the...

The Red Sox continued their ways of winning, as they bested the New York Mets 9-5 behind a grand slam in the bottom ninth inning by minor league journeyman Ed Rogers. SS Julio Lugo led the Red Sox in runs scored with two, finishing 1/2 with a walk and Kevin Youkilis...

Curt Schilling’s changeup seems to be making progress, and he feels it’s good enough to be his No. 2 pitch. If true, it could offer a new look to batters, and Schilling could be in line for another strong season. Developing another strong pitch this late...
