I usually don’t single out certain series but given the passion of the rivalry, and the fact that I got out of class at noon today, I thought, why not? Well I’ll skip the small chat and get right down to business. This weekend the two powers of the AL East...

With all of the attention directed towards the pitching staff (and rightfully so), the Red Sox offense needs to be discussed. They

I finally got my laptop back but there’s no game to enjoy watching on it.

Oh … is there anything more glorious? Having been a frequent visitor of Opening Day at Fenway Park years past (including my most recent one in 2005, when the ring ceremony was held for the 2004 World Series title) there’s nothing sweeter than seeing the...

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,...

Daisuke Matsuzaka and Jon Lester, two important components to the future of the Red Sox starting rotation, both took the mound today with divergent outcomes. First, the one with all the attention: Dice-K pitched 5.2 innings, gave up one run on one hit, one walk, and...

It’s time for the Fire Brand community predictions! Last year, we predicted three Red Sox hitters and three Red Sox pitchers’ seasons. We didn’t do so bad. This year we will do the same, but add in division predictions as well. All you have to do is...

The Red Sox Spring Training schedule began yesterday at 10:00 when Jon Lester played in the B-game. He pitched one perfect inning, needing only 8 pitches. Lester was even able to get his fastball up to 90 mph. An amazing feet considering the challenges Lester faced...

When I hear people claiming that the Red Sox are the new Yankees, I can’t help by laugh. I hear Brian Cashman stating his new dedication to getting younger and I can see him putting what’s best for the team ahead of loyalties for individual players. It...
