I have a confession to make: I didn’t watch Game 4 of the 2004 ALCS. I know this hurts my credibility as a diehard Red Sox fan, but I had reached a point where I just wasn’t sure whether I could deal with the emotion of a loss to the Yankees for the second straight...

Last Friday night, the Red Sox earned their 94th win in 155 games played, with the last out fittingly coming on a Koji Uehara strikeout. The win sealed the first division title for the Red Sox since 2007, and their seventh AL East title since the division was formed...

We all remember the huge moments of the Red Sox 2004 playoff run, from The Steal to the walk off hits to the bloody sock. Waiting for Spring Training to start is rough, so I decided to watch my 2004 playoff dvds, and found five underrated moments or performances that...

Now that the All-Aughts Team of the Decade roster is complete, it’s time to fill out the two remaining spots available: honorable mention and dishonorable mention. We’re tackling the former today. The Red Sox have players worthy of being immortalized on...

Stan Grossfeld of the Boston Globe interviewed Keith Foulke in a piece that ran today. I enjoy Grossfeld’s feature pieces — they’re enjoyable to read, and this one is no exception. It’s great to hear from Foulke, and I’ll always consider...

I heard some news just now that greatly saddened me – Keith Foulke is finished with baseball. Apparently, Foulke recently experienced pain in his elbow in recent days and decided to retire rather than struggle through a third consecutive injury-plagued year....

It still hasn’t been ruled out that he will rejoin the Red Sox, but this will guarantee the Red Sox a draft pick if he doesn’t resign with the Red Sox. The Red Sox should be fortunate because Foulke could have accepted the offer of arbitration and drew a...

So, who got offered arbitration by the Red Sox? Trot Nixon did not get offered arbitration. Mark Loretta, Gabe Kapler and Doug Mirabelli were also not offered arbitration. The lone offer was to Keith Foulke, a near certainty not to return, giving the Red Sox a...

CHAD CORDERO / WASHINGTONPOST.COMThe 2006 relief ace celebrates a save. I’ve got a non-Sox related article today (although I do chat quite a bit about how this relates to the Sox). I’ve got a non-hot stove related article today. I highly recommend reading...

Extra Bases has the story. The Red Sox have declined their team option on Keith Foulke, so we will know on Friday if Foulke will remain a Red Sox or not. In addition, Theo has outlined the needs of the Red Sox. In his words: “We need a starting pitcher, a couple...
