Reading through game threads, talking to fellow Red Sox fans and hearing the complaints of a nation, the general spotlight heading into the All-Star Break seems to be flashing on the man upstairs. No, I

With the tying run 90 feet away, J.D. Drew stranded Dustin Pedroia at third base losing to the Detroit Tigers (52-34) in a 6-5 ball game. Down 6-2 in the seventh the Boston Red Sox (53-34) managed to make it a one run ball game going into the ninth on back-to-back...

Recently, friends and I were wondering if there was a possible way to quantify in terms of dollars exactly how big of a bust Julio Lugo has been. The more I thought about it, the more I wanted to work out statistical systems to compare player’s contributions to...

I just got back from the long, rain-soaked affair at Fenway, so forgive me if I cop out and bring you a guest column by Marlins Today‘s writer, Andy Lavin — also a Red Sox fan. Below the article, you will find two pictures (and notice the one above with...

All-star Mike Lowell homered and and J. D. Drew doubled twice propelling the Boston Red Sox (52-13) to a 7-5 victory over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays (33-50). Tim Wakefield (9-8) threw 6.1 innings picking up the win, giving up seven hits, four earned runs, two walks, two...

Well, June was a rough month. We ended the month at 12-13, a game below .500 … but no AL East foe had the stones to step up and take advantage. The Sox saw a lot of people flounder: Beckett, Cora, Lowell, Schilling, Youkilis, Lugo, Wily Mo, Timlin, Varitek,...

Quite possibly the best game pitched by Daisuke Matsuzaka this season (8.1 innings, three hits, one earned run, one walk, and eight strikeouts) was not enough as Joel Pineiro blew it in the 11th inning as the Seattle Mariners completed the sweep of the Boston Red Sox...

Lately, June has seen the Red Sox offense go in opposite directions in terms of what players had done previously in the year. Mike Lowell, Jason Varitek, and yes, even Julio Lugo, are backsliding. In Lugo’s case, he’s backsliding … big time. But what...
