Don’t look now, but the Red Sox are streaking with exactly 10 day to go before the July 31st trade deadline. Over the weekend, Boston took 3 straight from the Kansas City Royals, and improved their season record to 46-52. On Friday, it was Clay Buchholz who got...

Perhaps you like A.J Pierzynski. You may have ready made excuses for his .253/.285/.348, his 2014 bWAR of -0.2, his poor ball blocking skills, and penchant for the GIDP (11 this season, 207 in his career). If none of that bothers you, his age (37) and one year...

After Monday’s loss against the Cleveland Indians snapped the Red Sox 7 game win streak, Boston sought to even up the series in Cleveland on Tuesday. Red Sox right-hander Jake Peavy took the mound for Boston and struggled early, allowing hits to the first 5...

Ryan Lavarnway was once the favourite son in Boston. Once primed to inherit full-time catching duties from Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Lavarnway now appears to be somewhere around fifth or sixth on the depth chart. He’s probably the first (or maybe third) line of...
