May saw the Red Sox go 17-12 and a concerning trend arise: road struggles. Three straight wins in Baltimore seem to be the cure, but can the Red Sox keep up with the Tampa Bay Rays? The Rays are one behind the Chicago Cubs for the best MLB record, and a crucial three...

The Red Sox are positioning themselves to be the favorite in the American League once again. The Sox have been led by a promising rotation that posted a 1.69 ERA in 10 starts up until Wednesday (36 hits in 69+ innings), a lineup beginning to hit its stride led by the...

What should the plan be for Justin Masterson? See you in September to get a few innings in preparation for 2009. 31% of all votes Plug him in only in desperation, don’t rush him. 28% of all votes Up and down all year plugging starting holes when need be, shut...

Almost better than advertised Justin Masterson left the game after pitching 6 innings and only allowing one run, giving Boston a 3-1 lead, but the bullpen ruined his career debut. After Masterson left the Sox with a lead and a stellar performance only giving up two...

Justin Masterson, after pitching impressively today (thanks, bullpen), will be headed back to the minor leagues. Bryan Corey, recently released (and resigned) will come back to the bullpen. I doubt he’ll be around for long as Mike Lowell is coming back shortly...

Justin Masterson has officially been placed on the Red Sox’s 25-man roster. To make room, the Sox optioned Craig Hansen, who pitched pretty impressively I have to say. Looking like a Keith Foulke clone (his windup, not fastball), he showed a lot of promise with...
