Having swept the Miami Marlins out of Fenway Park, the Boston Red Sox (36-33) welcome the Atlanta Braves (37-32) back to their true home of Boston. The Braves are in third place in the National League East, four games behind the Washington Nationals, while the Red Sox...

In constructing the Team of the Decade of the 2000s, I’ve sought to create an actual team, not just one of superstars. Eric Hinske is the last man on the bench to be announced, joining Gabe Kapler, Alex Cora and Doug Mirabelli. Hinske was acquired by Boston...
by evan brunell | Dec 19, 2007 | Eric Hinske, Ryan Klesko
San Francisco’s KNBR reports that the Red Sox have made a “financially acceptable one-year offer” to Ryan Klesko, recently of the San Francisco Giants. Klesko, who plays first base and left field (with some minimal time seen in right) would...

Even though not much attention is paid to bench players, they are often an important cog in a team’s success. Right now, the Red Sox’s bench is looking terrible. We have no backup catcher and the one with the greatest chance of returning hasn’t hit...

Well, the Red Sox made a free agent move today (no, not Alex Rodriguez, folks) and made their arbitration tenders and nontenders. And they are… Red Sox sign Jon Van Every. Every hit .344/.416/.583 in 151 at-bats for AA Akron (Cleveland). He went up the ladder to...

Here we stand, on the date of October 10, two days before the first pitch of the 2007 American League Championship Series. Here we stood, on the date of March 31, two days before the first pitch of the 2007 baseball season. On March 31, we had no way of knowing...

PLAYOFFS? YOU TALKIN’ PLAYOFFS? Yes, Jim. We are. Check out which hitters and pitchers prepped themselves… and which need to turn things around. Boston Red Sox 2007 Month to Month: September Batters Key: Average/On-Base Percentage/Slugging/Other Stat....

It may be time to hit the panic button for Red Sox Nation. Clay Buchholz (3-1) suffered his first loss of the season pitching for 4 2/3 innings, on five hits, two runs, one earned, two walks, and five strikeouts as the Boston Red Sox saw their lead over the New York...

Okay, I wouldn’t say “too close for comfort,” but after last night I have an uneasy feeling. Last night’s game was just a lackluster performance all the way around. Tim Wakefield’s knuckler didn’t have a lot of bite, resulting in a...
by zach hayes | Sep 17, 2007 | Curt Schilling, Eric Hinske, Joba Chamberlain, New York Yankees
The Red Sox had a golden opportunity to accomplish two important goals tonight. One, they could have gotten to the prince of the world, the newest phenom and collective wet dream in New York right now, Joba Chamberlain. A ferocious at-bat from Eric Hinske led off a...
