Right now, the Boston Red Sox appear to be in holding pattern until free agent southpaw Jon Lester makes his final decision. While Boston’s reported offer of 6 years, $130M is a strong submission, the Chicago Cubs are currently the highest bidders while the San...

Well, the Red Sox made a free agent move today (no, not Alex Rodriguez, folks) and made their arbitration tenders and nontenders. And they are… Red Sox sign Jon Van Every. Every hit .344/.416/.583 in 151 at-bats for AA Akron (Cleveland). He went up the ladder to...

Evan here, Tito couldn’t make it today… Now that it’s September 1, help is coming to the Red Sox — big time. Dinged up by injuries and worn down by the season, the Red Sox may be the best team in baseball, but they certainly need some help to...

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...

The Boston Red Sox today optioned centerfielder Jacoby Ellsbury to the minor leagues. Ellsbury went six for 16, leaving his first major league stint at a .375/.444/.438 line, stealing one base and overall showing just why he is so highly-regarded. There has been lots...

Last year was Theo Epstein’s most criticized as general manager of the Boston Red Sox. He made a multitude of unpopular moves in which he dealt players such as Hanley Ramirez, Andy Marte, Bronson Arroyo, Anibel Sanchez, Josh Bard, Cla Meredith and David Riske....

Given the Red Sox pitching troubles last year, they were wise to stock up on starters going into this season. When talking starters it’s not a matter of if, but when they will go down. Starters will get hurt. Here’s a quick look at who we’ll be...

UPDATE: The Rockies are the ones being the aggressors in the talks, and the Red Sox aren’t very motivated in this deal, so this will be a deal that the Rockies will have to give more than take. This may end up being an easier pill to swallow now that the Red Sox...

Before the most convenient four-letter word could find its way out of the collective mouths of Red Sox fans all across the world, the starting rotation of 2006 had crashed, burned and collapsed about as quickly as Tony Womack

MICHAEL YOUNG/ ELHERALDONEWS.COM On Saturday, Peter Gammons reported Alex Gonzalez had signed with the Reds for 3 years and 14 million. The defensive wizard has earned a raise after posting an outstanding year with the glove, but Wayne Krivsky might have found himself...
