Boston’s 6-5 loss to the Kansas City Royals can either be the breaking point of the season where everything falls apart or it can be the part of the season where the Boston Red Sox (56-38) wake up and realize that the New York Yankees have trimmed a double digit...

Despite a rough start from Julian Tavarez the Boston Red Sox (54-35) still had a chance to win, but Kyle Snyder surrendered two runs in the sixth to the Toronto Blue Jays (44-45) who eventually won 6-5 despite a ninth inning rally by Boston. First time All-Star...

Recently, friends and I were wondering if there was a possible way to quantify in terms of dollars exactly how big of a bust Julio Lugo has been. The more I thought about it, the more I wanted to work out statistical systems to compare player’s contributions to...
