In an appearance on 93.7 WEEI on Thursday, Red Sox manager John Farrell admitted that the team is still on the hunt to add a strikeout throwing reliever before the offseason is out. This doesn’t come as a surprise at all, considering the Red Sox finished the...

Today, I’m releasing the first installment of a new series I’ll be starting here at Fire Brand. From time to time, I’ll check in with other writers within the baseball blogosphere to discuss their team, an upcoming series with the Red Sox, or just...

One of the beautiful aspects of baseball is the lack of a clock. A game ends after 27 outs (when the game isn’t tied, which is another wonderful element). But baseball is not watched in a vacuum. Few things in life are not influenced by time. Hence, I agree with...

There is nothing that can derail a team quicker than a slew of injuries in October. The Sox have seen their fair share of injuries lately, though the M.A.S.H. unit has had some success returning the boys to action. But they are not the only team in the hunt, as the...

Jason Varitek and Jorge Posada are of similar age. Both are catchers. The similarities stop there, but Scott Boras said he thinks Varitek is worthy of a four-year, $52.4 million commitment, which is what Posada got last year. Yeah, that worked out well… dude...

I attended the game last night and witnessed Jorge Posada try to catch. The Red Sox took full advantage of Jorge’s arm woes and sent Coco Crisp (okay) and Dustin Pedroia (what!?) to second base on stolen bases. It’s apparent that Posada was under orders...

Now coming to you in a promotional spot for NESN Friday night baseball, FOX Saturday afternoon baseball and ESPN Sunday Night baseball… The Yankees are coming to town. The villainous Evil Empire pressed their tentacled feet down on the tarmac in the Athens of...

Much like this year’s political campaigns, Yankee fans want change. Ever since the Luis Gonzalez bloop single fell into shallow left field, ending the Yankee reign atop the baseball world, the franchise has seemingly never been the same. And ǃ˙never been the...

I hate being mean….. LaTroy Hawkins signs with Yankees for 1 year, $4 million Hawkins is the first of a few moves the Yankees have to make in order to find a diamond in the rough at the setup man spot in their bullpen. With Joba Chamberlain moving to the...

A Johnny Damon two-run homerun off of Daisuke Matsuzaka sealed the deal for the New York Yankees edging out the Boston Red Sox 5-3 and decreasing the Boston lead in the division to 7 games. Damon’s two-run homer barerly left Yankee Stadium as it looped over the...
