It’s almost time to put your caps back on those lovable heads of yours. Ft. Myers is about to be filled with a lot of navy and red. The baseball & food enthusiast Keith Law released his top 100 prospects on Tuesday, with quite a few Red Sox on the list....

Following a putrid 69-win season, there isn’t much optimism surrounding the Red Sox’ chances of winning the American League East in 2013. The Sox have not made the postseason since 2009. They haven’t won the division since 2007, which is the only time they’ve done it...

Part 1: The Pitchers Part 2: The Batters (1/31) Part 3: The League (2/7) Disclaimers: 1) Please feel free to bookmark this and come back later in September/October to see how I did — you know that if I hit on a few of them you’re going to hear about it. 2)...

Guys, I’m making the 2013 Baseball Hall of Fame class reunion letters and need some creative – oh. Right. Blank ballots, morality debates, and no players voted in. Here’s some links for you all while I stare at this situation incredulously. Of all...

Should the Red Sox finish adding to their starting pitching? Boston was reportedly casing Javier Vazquez’s starts in Puerto Rico, as the right-hander is contemplating returning to to the majors after a year off. That begs the question: should Boston add another...

Last week we took at look at the Bottom 5 Moments from 2012, if you missed that you can check it out here. This week, thankfully, we’re back with a (somewhat) more positive look at the previous 12 months. Even in a season that saw the Sox manage only 69 wins to their...

Happy Hump Day everyone! This should go without saying, but Dan Shaughnessy will never be in these links. That shot at the Houston Texans? Not very smart. The Killer Bs swarm SB Nation’s Top 20 Red Sox Prospects list, taking the first three spots. Honestly, with...

The Red Sox set out to do a lot of things this offseason, but from the brunt of their moves, it appears their priorities were as follows: 1.) Field a competitive team in the short term 2.) Don’t give up draft picks 3.) Retain priority prospects 4.) Maintain payroll...

Hello everyone! It’s the final day of 2012! I know you all are busy setting up a party celebrating the end of the year, so I’ll get straight to the links post. Also, don’t forget the chips & dip. Very important. The dumpster fire known as the...
