The month of May was good to the Red Sox. The Red Sox went 20-8 despite many people slumping. It’s quite impressive how well the team is playing despite those slumps. This month also saw several people come up from the minors to contribute: Javier Lopez, Kason...

As Mike introduced a two part series last week regarding the Red Sox chances of winning the division, I felt it was only necessary to take it a step further. The date is May 25, and almost 50 games into the season,...

The Tim Hudson (5-2) vs Kason Gabbard (1-0) billing did not look appetizing for the Boston Red Sox (30-13) but Gabbard delivered a five star pitching performance aiding the Sox take two out of three from the Atlanta Braves(26-18) in a 6-3 win. Gabbard threw five...

With the word being that Josh Beckett tore part of his skin on his middle right finger, the question now comes if Beckett can make his next scheduled start, set for this Friday against the Braves. This is a shame, because he’s faced the Braves many times and...

Now that the month of April is officially over, it’s time to bring back a segment that I started last year but tailed off and didn’t do for August and September. I’ll be taking a month to month look at the Red Sox, and unlike last years, I’m...

Oh … is there anything more glorious? Having been a frequent visitor of Opening Day at Fenway Park years past (including my most recent one in 2005, when the ring ceremony was held for the 2004 World Series title) there’s nothing sweeter than seeing the...

Craig Hansen has been optioned to Triple-A (gee, what a surprise…). Alex Ochoa has accepted his assignment to Triple-A, and could have a chance of coming up as a backup outfielder due to injury. Bryan Corey has been sent to minor league camp, which firms up the...

The Red Sox will announce after today’s spring training game that Jonathan Papelbon has been tabbed the Red Sox closer. This means that a battle for the fifth spot in the rotation will ensue. Leaders for the rotation are Kyle Snyder, Julian Tavarez and Devern...
