By now I imagine that we’re all pretty well versed in acquisitions that the Boston Red Sox have made so far this offseason, but they’re not the only team that has been busy in the American League East. The Toronto Blue Jays, who finished third in the...

The Blue Jays aren’t messing around. That much became clear when they signed free-agent catcher Russell Martin to a five-year, $82.5 million contract Monday, outbidding notable heavyweights in the Cubs and Dodgers in the process. The signing comes with its fair share...

Fresh off their first win in a little over a week, the Red Sox played the second game north of the boarder against the Toronto Blue Jays. In the first inning, Boston quickly jumped out to a 3 run advantage, thanks to a 2-run home run by Dustin Pedroia and an RBI...

After snapping their 6 game winning streak on Tuesday, the Red Sox looked to return to their winning ways on Wednesday. Boston sent Clay Buchholz to the mound in search of his third consecutive win, while the Blue Jays countered with verteran knuckleballer R.A....

Major League Baseball held the 29th annual Home Run Derby on Monday night. For the first time since the advent of the contest in 1985, the parameters of the event were altered to feature a new rules as well as a new format. Firstly, the derby was conducted in bracket...

The human heart is essential for life. It pumps blood through our system and without it, a person can’t live. The same applies to the heart of a baseball order and a team’s success. A team could have a flailing heart that could lead to a dead offense, much...

I projected the Red Sox to finish fourth in the division this season. To be fair, I am an idiot. I predicted Jason Heyward would win the National League MVP award, and he went on to be only the third-most-valuable player on his own team in terms of fWAR, with a...

And once more with the Blue Jays. We’ve already seen 2012, Toronto – we don’t need you coming back here to remind us of how bad a “superteam” can get. And for just the seventh time in team history, the Red Sox have a chance to clinch the...

If there’s any one player-related piece that I hope people take away from this season, it’s that folks begin to appreciate just how good Koji Uehara is at baseball – and I really mean that. I mean it because sure, he’s an insanely likeable guy, but I say it more...

That Royals series was very frustrating. But for every sequence of games like that, there’s three others against teams like Toronto. Teams with no pitching that if you don’t tee off against, you should feel pretty distraught. And back to the Great White...
