The Red Sox kept their winning streak alive over the weekend after sweeping a three game set against the Tampa Bay Rays. To kick off the series, the two division rivals nearly came to blows after David Price hit David Ortiz in the first inning and Mike Carp in the...

The first six weeks of the season haven’t all gone according to plan for the Red Sox. Various injuries and some poor hitting with men on base have conspired to dampen their offensive production, Felix Doubront and Clay Buchholz have each turned in a stinker or two,...

Here’s a cherry on top of the World Series championship of 2013: Last week, ESPN ranked the Red Sox as number one in their Future Power Rankings, the franchise “best equipped for success over the next half decade”. This ranking looked at five categories for the...

Ah, the offseason. A time for all 30 teams (or at least 26-or-so teams) to regain optimism. A time for rumors, whispers and arguments galore. A time for rampant #rosturbation, for MLB Trade Rumors, for @BadMLB and for Nick Cafardo’s trade ideas. We don’t all admit...

We just went through a week of backs to the wall. Boston is lovely this time of year — looking forward to coming back in a couple days. — Joe Maddon (@RaysJoeMaddon) October 6, 2013 Feel free to come back and catch an ALCS game from the stands, Joe! Wow, do I...

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...

The Red Sox have a shot to end the Rays’ season once and for all today. Wouldn’t that make Monday oh so much better if they did? You bet it will. Boston has looked dominating in the two games so far, and the scariest thing is that they might not even be...

The long wait is nearly over. After clinching the American League East on September 20, and the American League’s best record on September 28, it took until October 2 to finally learn the Red Sox Divisional Round opponent for the 2013 playoffs. Once again, a familiar...

Hey everyone! Are you ready to see David Price again so soon? No? Neither am I! Thanks rain delay, you da best! So you’re telling me…Jon Lester‘s used his cutter a lot less often, and now he’s doing really well? What is this madness? Because...

Well, that series was just a lesson in depression, wasn’t it? Sox get a CG hurled against them twice, and the last game is rained out. Yeesh. It’s starting to feel like crunch time, and the dog days of August haven’t even hit yet. At this point, the...
