Gordon Edes of ESPN Boston has seen enough, and thinks it’s time to remove John Lackey from the Red Sox rotation. “This has gone on long enough. Terry Francona has to yank John Lackey from the starting rotation. Francona has a replacement on hand. His name is Alfredo...

There hasn’t been a lot of good news surrounding the Sox lately. I’m sure it seems like the all hope is lost, but the fact of the matter is this team has had some really great performances from a number of players this season. This week’s poll...

by charliesap | Sep 9, 2011 | Boston Red Sox, John Lackey
After yet another disasterous outing by John Lackey tonight, I decided to have a look at where his location has been this season compared to last. Lackey actually has a decent BB/9 rate this season (not including his hit batsmen), but throwing strikes isn’t...

After taking a look at all four of the 2011 first round picks signed by the Red Sox, I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the current roster and see where everyone came from. You’ll notice a bit of home-grown talent as well as some former first...

You’ve got Jon Lester. You’ve got Josh Beckett. Everything else is one big cluster of discomfort. Erik Bedard was throwing the ball well against the Rangers last night until a base hit, a bad call (Josh Reddick made the catch, though it was called a trap)...
