Fenway Park is a great place to hit. And so far in 2011 it’s where Kevin Youkilis has produced his monster offensive numbers. Through 187 plate appearances at home, Youk boasts a .388/.497/.671 slash line. If Youkilis had his way he would take every at-bat this...

As valuable as these two Sox regulars have been, I believe they’ll be better in the second half. Kevin Youkilis started off slow, based on his standards. His strikeout rate was hovering around 30-percent for most of April and into May, but we knew that would...

I just wanted to make a quick note today about Kevin Youkilis. His big three-run home run last night helped Josh Beckett capture his sixth win of the season on the heals of an utterly dominant and almost perfect performance. Youk has had to make a lot of adjustments...

photo © 2011 Keith Allison | more info (via: Wylio) They say you shouldn’t sweat the small stuff, but in baseball, the small stuff is what it’s all about. Sometimes, it’s all about big plays in big moments. Everyone likes a highlight reel home run or...

The Sox are approaching the .500 mark and, despite their early season woes, are only four games behind the first-place Yankees. Imagine what’s going to happen when the offense begins to fire on all cylinders. One issue that has led to some low batting averages...
