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...

After winning just one of three in Chicago, the Boston Red Sox (28-19, second place, 0.5 games behind in the AL East) return home to face Terry Francona‘s Cleveland Indians (26-19, first place in the AL Central, 0.5 games ahead). The Red Sox are 6-4 in their...

Having swept the Rays, the Boston Red Sox (8-4, leading the AL East by 1.5 games) travel to the southern shore of Lake Erie to take on the Cleveland Indians (5-6, third place in the AL Central, 1.5 games back) in a three-game series. This will be the first time this...

It’s the unofficial start of Spring Training! Time to drown yourselves in baseball, photos of new guys in your favorite team(s) uniforms, and what have you. Someone/something has it out for Red Sox minor league outfielders lately. First, Ryan Kalish has surgery,...

Much of the attention this offseason has so far (rightly) been focused on who will be in the lineup and rotation for the Red Sox. But what about who will be coming off the bench? These players, while their value is less than those of starters, will still play...

Ok, the season has started. So here is my quick write-up on the AL West, along with very quick predictions for the remaining divisions. LA Angels of Anaheim: 86-76: The one thing that I am not sold on is that a team like the Angels are solely summed up in their run...

Theo Epstein has reportedly signed for three additional years, guaranteeing him at the helm of the Red Sox through 2011. Two interesting Yankee tidbits come today, via Jon Heyman and Joel Sherman. Heyman contends that the Yankees might explore trading Robinson Cano, a...

At least Jason Giambi did not want to get swept by the Boston Red Sox as he carried the Yankees on his shoulders for a 3-2 victory. A two-run homer in the seventh tied the game up at 2-2 and in the ninth Giambi delivered the walk-off single to stop Boston from...

Much like this year’s political campaigns, Yankee fans want change. Ever since the Luis Gonzalez bloop single fell into shallow left field, ending the Yankee reign atop the baseball world, the franchise has seemingly never been the same. And ǃ˙never been the...
