So, for the second straight Tuesday, the Red Sox do not play a game. At all. Why must you toy with us, MLB schedule makers? We Sox fans love baseball too, in case you forgot about that… The perennial warms-your-heart journey of Daniel Nava continues. In this...

After winning their first two road series of the season, the Boston Red Sox (4-2, first place in the AL East) come home to Fenway Park for their opening series against the Baltimore Orioles (3-3, 1 game back in the AL East). Baltimore was one of the surprises of 2012,...

It’s probably a sign of just how much of a baseball nerd I am, but the aspect of the 2013 Red Sox I’m most excited for is not Jackie Bradley Jr., the new faces, potential rebound seasons from Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz, or anything like that. Nah, it’s the bullpen....

Now be honest here, everyone: are you going to be watching Texas @ Houston or Game of Thrones on Opening Night? I wouldn’t think less of you either way. After a fantastic March, Jackie Bradley may actually be getting his first taste of the big leagues much...
