The Bruins season is over and that means that I turn my eyes back to Fenway Park. It is kind of hard not to actually, I live across from the thing, but so it goes. Mired on the Bruins beat as I was for the last half of the season, I could not help but start to think...

Drew Back on Track No Sox hitter in the past two weeks has been hotter than J.D. Drew. In Boston’s last ten games, he’s batted 17-for-36 with three homers. The eight Ks are a bit unfortunate, but nothing concerning. Not including last night, his first strike...

These past two nights, we’ve gotten a glimpse of what this team could look like with things going right. Strong pitching performances by Clay Buchholz and Jon Lester, backed by an offense that at worst grinds down opposing pitchers and at best can be explosive,...

Heading into 2010 it was a fairly easy choice that we wanted Victor Martinez to supply the offense we needed from the catcher position and give adequate defense behind the plate. So far though there has been some early results that might be good reasoning to place...

There’s just not a whole lot that can be said after a club gets swept by the worst team in baseball. Maybe “worst team in baseball” is a bit unfair to the Baltimore Orioles, but they earned that title by entering the weekend’s series at 4-18 (.181 winning percentage)....

The Red Sox have played poorly in all facets of the game. As of games through April 22nd, they are ninth in run scored and thirteenth in runs against. Our eyes and the numbers tell us that the Olde Towne Team’s play has been ugly. Even though most thought the Red Sox...
