Manager Terry Francona reported today that shortstop Jed Lowrie would likely undergo surgery. Unlike the previous surgery that would have ended his season, this one may allow him to return at the All-Star break. In other news, as Mike Scandura first reported, Jeff...

Well, this stinks if true. Jed Lowrie may or may not have been the future at the SS position. Now, the organization and its fans may or may not have to wait and find out. Not good news. But the club will find someone to give them some decent play at the position. ...

New Poll Question: What early season situation most concerns you? We all know that the season hasn’t started off firing on all cylinders. It’s also fair to assume that Dustin Pedroia won’t bat under .200 over the course of the season, so...

No word on Jed Lowrie yet, but the fact that he’s seeking a FOURTH opinion in Baltimore today means that the prognosis doesn’t bode too well for him. I’d be surprised to hear anything less than wrist surgery that knocks him out for the year. The...

Our offense is now a sinkhole. Shortstop Jed Lowrie is off to the disabled list with a left wrist injury, with Nick Green becoming the new everyday shortstop. Infielder Gil Velazquez was recalled to take the backup infield role.

The 2009 Boston Red Sox are in the final stages of preparing for what is certain to be an entertaining and exciting season. The spring is finally behind us, the roster is set and the team is moving northward to christen Citi Field with some Major League talent. Now...

The other half of the best rivalry in sports, The New York Yankees. The Bronx Bombers “only” ended up with 89 victories last season. And the key players they inked this past off-season, have them looking incredibly strong on paper for this upcoming 2009...

David Ortiz – Samara Pearlstein Sit down with a big cup of coffee, because have I a treat for you. I participated in a chat on Tuesday night and they have made the transcript available for Fire Brand to peruse. Enjoy… Do you think that the Red Sox will be...

If pitching rotations were made up of all Jamie Moyers, then maybe Julio Lugo would be the best option at the shortstop position. But pitching rotations are made up of multiple arms, different arsenals, and some pitchers that are much better than Jamie Moyer. And...

Jason Varitek, you ended my dream. It may have been a long shot, but it’s over. And although having you back at least fills the backstop, it does crush my desire to have nine league average hitters in the Red Sox lineup. Potentially now, eight of them, now...
