Curt Schilling agreed to a one-year, $8 million deal and may not know it yet but has also agreed to be the mentor to part of the Red Sox pitching staff. Better get those notebooks handy Mr. Schilling. As you all know Schilling can earn an additional $2 million in...

The most important thing that may have resulted from the World Series is how well we are set up to repeat next year. Every year, there are inevitably articles on why or why not the World Series champions will repeat the next year. It’s happened for as long as we...

Without the designated hitter the Boston Red Sox still proved they were the better team as Jacoby Ellsbury lead the team on offense with four hits, two runs, and two RBIs in the 10-5 win over the Colorado Rockies. Daisuke Matsuzaka earned the win pitching for 5 1/3...

After game one of the Indians series, Sox fans thought we would have a relatively easy time disposing of the Tribe. After Mike Lowell’s solo home run in game two, when the Sox pulled ahead six to five, we all let out a deep breath and started slapping each other...

What a totally satisfying series. What truly made it great, and will indeed define it down the road as memorable, is that there was a moment of absolute despair. Just like the 2004 ALCS, there was a moment where I couldn’t think of a way out. That was in game...

After what was a back-and-forth game the whole night the Cleveland Indians broke open the 11th inning scoring 7 runs en route to a 13-6 victory over the Boston Red Sox tying the series at 1-1. Eric Gagne once again did not hold the fort down getting no outs and...

Here’s a curious case. There are 16 major league pitchers on the active roster. I can only select one who should not make the postseason roster: Devern Hansack, who has pitched 7.2 IP on the year so far this year. Those innings came May 8, 19 and September 8....
