Having split the home-and-home series in Philly, the Boston Red Sox (33-22, first place in the AL East, 2 games ahead) head north to the Bronx for a weekend series with the New York Yankees (30-23, second place in the AL East, 2 games back). The Red Sox are 6-4 in...

Not long ago, I logged on to Twitter to see that the Yankees were in first place in the AL East. It was their first time there this season and they have stayed in that area since, currently leading the Sox by one game after tonight. Understandably, I was a little...

Sure, it’s hard to take much of anything away from one baseball game, but with a team full of so many question marks, it’s always fun to start peeling back layers – as small as they may be – to uncover some of those answers. While we probably won’t have much of a...

The Boston Red Sox (69-93, 26 games back in 2012) visit the Bronx to open the 2013 season with a three-game set against their perennial rivals, the New York Yankees (95-67, first place in the AL East in 2012). New faces are plentiful in Boston but injuries are the...

The 2013 New York Yankees are one heck of an interesting bet. It’s not quite black/red, high/low or odd/even, but you can rest assured that outcomes in baseball really aren’t all that complicated. In fact, there are only three kinds of baseball seasons in...

The Red Sox have assembled one of the best collections of catchers in all of baseball. And if you think that speaks to the paucity of passable backstops in the game as much as it does Boston’s roster construction, you’re right. As you all know, the Red Sox currently...

I’ll be honest. When we sent out the data call for standings predictions, I picked the Yankees to win the AL East. Honestly, it was really hard not to. They already had an incredibly solid club as they entered the offseason, and then they went and added...
