The Red Sox are up two games to none on the Tampa Bay Rays in the ALDS, and they have yet to use their best starting pitcher. This is something you already know, of course, but it’s incredible enough that it bears repeating. What’s perhaps more notable is that this...

As much fun as it’s been dissecting every rumor, and providing rational responses to every over-the-top editorial written for the past two months; I’ve decided it’s time to stop living in the past and look toward planning for the future. The 2011...

Considering the wave of injuries that have overcome the Red Sox pitching staff during the past several weeks, I think most of us figured the front office would focus on finding creative ways to shore up the pitching staff at the trade deadline. Apparently, not so...

As we discussed previously, Kerry Wood is the odds on favorite to be the Red Sox new name reliever come August. The Olde Towne Team’s lack of upper-level prospects performing well and/or a desire not to part with these assets gives the Red Sox only a financial...

Just one night after Paul Byrd dropped five runs in the first frame against the Kansas City Royals, KC found out what it was like to watch an entire game slip away in one inning. Behind a six run fifth inning, the Boston Red Sox gave the Royals one such beat down,...

Seven sterling innings could not undo the wrongs of the first inning, as the Red Sox lose the second game of a four game series to the Kansas City Royals, 5-1. Red Sox starter Paul Byrd gave up five earned runs in the first inning, a deficit from which the Red Sox...

Boston’s 6-5 loss to the Kansas City Royals can either be the breaking point of the season where everything falls apart or it can be the part of the season where the Boston Red Sox (56-38) wake up and realize that the New York Yankees have trimmed a double digit...

Kason Gabbard pitched his first Major League complete game shutout while Manny Ramirez, Dustin Pedroia, and David Ortiz hit homeruns in the 4-0 win over the Kansas City Royals (39-53). Gabbard (3-0) went the distance throwing 107 pitches (71 for strikes) in the...

The last two games have easily atoned for the stinker the Red Sox tossed up on Opening Day, and the Sox head to Texas after vanquishing the Royals twice in a three-game set. The story yesterday, of course, is the play of Daisuke Matsuzaka. Matsuzaka shut down the...
