Giving up a stolen base can sure seem like a big deal and when you give up nine of them you would think that is a huge number. It isn’t something you want to give up every night, but it’s not as big of a problem as our pitching staff’s inability to...

Good businesses make money in the margins. Think about a restaurant. Think about a medium-rare filet mignon with potatoes gratin, sautéed broccolini, horseradish cream and port reduction that costs 28 dollars. Sure, that gets you in the door but it is not where the...

by Troy Patterson | Apr 13, 2010 | Jon Lester, Josh Beckett, Quick Post
So far this young season Jon Lester has walked six batters in only 10 IP. While an extremely small sample it’s a bit concerning. So far his fastball has been poor according to Fangraphs pitch values with a -2.19 runs per 100 pitches. One change I see right now...

After Sunday’s win – on a day after a thrilling come from behind opening night, a day on which Josh Beckett signed a contract which gives the Red Sox baseball’s best rotation through 2014, and a day during which we were all recovering from Neil...

I’m never one to jump on single game data, but I’m also never one to pass up a chance to play with Pitch F/x and also test the announcers claims. Sunday and Monday have been full of chatter on Beckett and that it was only one game, but also that his stuff...

On a night when the Boston marketing department pulled out all the stops, the players on the field managed to match them every step of the way. There was no shortage of excitement in this one. From Neil Diamond’s 8th inning appearance to Pedroia’s two-run...
