The Red Sox’s deep and potent offense was one of the hallmarks of the club’s World Series run in 2013. From the top of the order to the bottom, Boston boasted hitters who could do damage to the opposition and also work the count, making it a tough task for opposing...

Stop me if you’ve heard this before — David Ortiz saved the Red Sox. Down a run with runners on first and second in the eighth inning, the long tenured Boston slugger drilled a 3 run shot to give the Red Sox a two-run cushion during Sunday nights game...

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...

It has been 10 days since the Boston Red Sox signed Stephen Drew to the one-year contract, but he was called up Monday and was in the starting lineup at shortstop. The 31-year-old struggled with Triple-A Pawtucket as he went 2-for-13 with five strikeouts with one...

Everyone loves Mookie Betts, myself included. But everyone has also been very quick to point out Betts’ apparently ‘blocked’ path to the Major Leagues. Most Boston fans probably love Dustin Pedroia just a little bit more and they know that...

After taking the first three games of the series, the Red Sox looked to finish off the sweep of the Atlanta Braves on Thursday night. While the match-up of Jake Peavy and Mike Minor did not seem destine for a pitching duel, that’s exactly what took place in game...

After taking the first two games of the series in Atlanta, the Red Sox returned to Fenway Park to complete their 4 game set with the Braves. John Lackey took the hill for Boston turned in 6.1 innings of shutout work, striking out 9, and allowing just 5 hits. Behind...

An odd thing happened in the Portland Sea Dog’s game last Sunday. Top prospect Mookie Betts started in center field in that game, instead of his normal second base. With Jackie Bradley Jr. and Grady Sizemore struggling, this raises the question of whether the Red Sox...

Despite their best efforts, the Red Sox failed to complete a comeback over the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday. After Jake Peavy put the team in an early hole by allowing 6 runs in 4.1 innings, the Red Sox bats battled back and knotted the game at 6 in the seventh inning....

Felix Doubront and Homer Bailey squared off on Tuesday, in the first of two games between the Boston Red Sox and Cincinnati Reds. Both starters pitched very “bend but don’t break” games for their respective clubs. For the Red Sox, Doubront...
