Listen, I love Bill Simmons as much as you can love someone that you’ve never met (other than you, Dustin, don’t you worry your place is secure). I’ve read everything that he’s written since 2000. I may not have survived the tumultuous and ultimately triumphant...

I couldn’t be happier with that result in the Bronx. Two out of three and a good start to the season for many players. Heck, Farrell’s even gotten praise this early. Dust has replaced their blood. AARP is just waiting for them to be members. And yet, Andy...

On Sunday afternoon, a couple of friends and I went to Baltimore to watch the Nationals play the Orioles at Camden Yards. Despite it being a low scoring, it was pretty exciting game, nevertheless. Any time you can watch young stars like Bryce Harper, Matt Wieters,...

When “Guest Columnist”, er… I mean, Bottom Line Rob wrote a great piece this week on the five reasons that the Red Sox were favorites to repeat as World Series Champions in 2008, I found myself nodding with nearly every point, then kicking myself...

The Red Sox have been a model of consistency this past offseason, a striking departure from their modus operandi in 2004. For the most part, the 25-man roster is settled except for the bullpen, which is shaping up to be a battle for the last two spots. Running through...

The Red Sox farm system is currently overflowing with an embarrassment of riches. There are already 4 products of the Red Sox farm system contributing to the major league team. Those players are Kevin Youkilis, Jonathan Papelbon, Manny Delcarmen and Dustin Pedroia....

At 11-5 the Red Sox currently have the best record in the American League. Not only have they played rather well but there’s no aspect of the team that could really be pointed out at a weakness. The season is still very young however, as the Red Sox will have...
