After taking a look at all four of the 2011 first round picks signed by the Red Sox, I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the current roster and see where everyone came from. You’ll notice a bit of home-grown talent as well as some former first...

I have a confession to make. I really love being the smartest guy in the room. In fact, sometimes when I realize that I’m the smartest guy in the room, I’ll do whatever it takes to make sure you know it. Sometimes, I can get pretty obnoxious. I know...

photo © 2009 Keith Allison | more info (via: Wylio)The Red Sox are not afraid to give money to players in their arbitration years. You can see their history with Jon Lester, Kevin Youkilis and Dustin Pedroia. There is a benefit for both the player and team to get it...
