When Josh Reddick is the topic, I think of three versions of the same player. 1. Goggles-wearing Josh Reddick who was sent back to the minors 2. No-goggles Josh Reddick who was sent back to the minors 3. The 2011 breakout Josh Reddick who took the right field job away...

Alright ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for another round of news, notes, and observation. Dustin Pedroia – During Pedroia’s torrid 25 game hitting streak, he’s produced an impressive .404/.459/.752 triple slash with nine home runs and nine...

I feel like my writing about Andrew Miller might be bordering on overkill, but you know what, he’s just not that good of a pitcher. In yesterday’s game, Miller went 5.2 innings while allowing no run and two hits, but he walked six batters to only three...

Considering the wave of injuries that have overcome the Red Sox pitching staff during the past several weeks, I think most of us figured the front office would focus on finding creative ways to shore up the pitching staff at the trade deadline. Apparently, not so...

Our new poll is up and we’re asking you to make the call about the Red Sox right field situation. The J.D. Drew/Mike Cameron platoon hasn’t produced much on the offensive side and Josh Reddick has been on fire at the plate since being recalled from...

by charliesap | Jun 14, 2011 | Boston Red Sox, J.D. Drew
The Red Sox have won nine games in a row and have scored 83 runs in those nine games. Despite the offensive barrage that the Sox have unleashed lately, J.D. Drew, as he has for most of the year, has missed the party. In the last nine games, Drew has hit .176 and drawn...

photo © 2008 Eric Kilby | more info (via: Wylio) Maybe it’s the contract. Maybe it’s the attitude. Maybe it’s the omnipresent sense of a nagging injury. Maybe it’s because of Trot Nixon. Maybe it’s because of the slash line. Maybe...

photo © 2006 Jamie Baker | more info (via: Wylio) First of all, it’s really ridiculous what the Red Sox are doing right now as they are just putting on a clinic. The Yankees and Blue Jays were no match and they preceded that by beating up on Oakland. Adrian...
