Max Scherzer is too much of a commitment. Cole Hamels will cost too many top prospects. James Shields wants an ace contract, but he’s a high mileage 33-year old. But the Red Sox need an ace! Granted an ace would be nice to plant atop the rotation, but it’s...

ESPN’s standings currently have the Red Sox sitting at a 99.9% chance of making the playoffs. So is it a lock that Boston will once against be dancing in October? Of course not! But just how close are they to winning the AL East? Even if the Red Sox go a modest 7-8...

The Red Sox kick of a critical four-game series in the Bronx tonight, facing the hard-charging Yankees. New York enters the series only 2.5 games out of a Wild Card spot, a rather drastic turnaround from where they were a month ago. On August 7, the White Sox...

I’ll be honest with you guys, I still feel pretty baseball drunk from what happened tonight. First there were the Cliff Lee rumors. Then Jackie Bradley Jr. was pulled from his game in Pawtucket. Then there was a false report that Giancarlo Stanton had been pulled from...

Alright. Baseball’s back again. We’re done with the awful ESPYs, the trading desk is getting busy, and the Red Sox have a interesting stretch where they play AL East teams. So who better to kick off this set of inter-divisional games with than our very...

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...
