Since May is about to conclude, the aura around this years team is in its early developmental stages. While some players are overachieving and some underachieving, the fans are getting a sense of what this team can do as a whole. Last week, I attempted against my best...

Explosions of offense in the second and sixth innings lead to the eventual 10-6 win for the Boston Red Sox (32-15) over the Texas Rangers (18-30). The Sox made quick work of Rangers’ starter Brandon McCarthy handing him his early exit after a four run second....

As Mike introduced a two part series last week regarding the Red Sox chances of winning the division, I felt it was only necessary to take it a step further. The date is May 25, and almost 50 games into the season,...

Julio Lugo’s eight pitch at bat to leadoff the game against Mike Mussina (2-3) gave the rest of the Red Sox (31-14) lineup a huge advantage in the eventual 7-3 win against the New York Yankees (20-24). Kevin Youkilis, David Ortiz, and Manny Ramirez all...

The Tim Hudson (5-2) vs Kason Gabbard (1-0) billing did not look appetizing for the Boston Red Sox (30-13) but Gabbard delivered a five star pitching performance aiding the Sox take two out of three from the Atlanta Braves(26-18) in a 6-3 win. Gabbard threw five...

And the un-sung hero award goes to… Julian Tavarez. Tavarez who was not even supposed to be the fifth starter on this team has provided the Boston Red Sox with what any skipper would want out of his fifth starter: long outings and the ability to keep his team in...
by guest | May 2, 2007 | Jonathan Papelbon
Jonathan Papelbon had his first blown save of the season last night. I personally wasn’t too worried about it because I knew it was bound to happen some time. No one could honestly say that they expected Papelbon to finish the season with a 0.00 ERA and every...

Last year was Theo Epstein’s most criticized as general manager of the Boston Red Sox. He made a multitude of unpopular moves in which he dealt players such as Hanley Ramirez, Andy Marte, Bronson Arroyo, Anibel Sanchez, Josh Bard, Cla Meredith and David Riske....

Now that the month of April is officially over, it’s time to bring back a segment that I started last year but tailed off and didn’t do for August and September. I’ll be taking a month to month look at the Red Sox, and unlike last years, I’m...

Remember what was supposed to be the biggest weakness of the Red Sox going into the season? Well I guess this is why we play the games. I said all offseason how you can’t judge a bullpen until they actually start pitching because relief pitching is the most...
