No jet lag on this flight! Which is good, because I’d probably feel awful coming out of Houston having to work my backside off for two wins against the American League’s worst team. Be gentle, Central Time Zone. Please. KANSAS CITY ROYALS – 58-53,...

We are starting to move beyond the “it is early” excuse for the Red Sox record. The club has issues and it may be too late to resolve them. Even the most optimist projection of the Olde Towne Team’s chance of making the postseason is only at twenty...

The arbitration tender deadline has come and gone, and unsurprisingly, many players were not tendered arbitration contracts they had the right to accept or reject. Also unsurprisingly, Boston offered arbitration to its two eligible players: Jason Bay and Billy Wagner....

With the departure of Alex Gonzalez to Toronto, it’s time to move on and explore what options are available to Boston to man the shortstop position in 2010 — and possibly beyond. I’ve gone through some potential free-agent and trade options and then...

One of the more pressing issues facing the Red Sox this offseason, the shortstop position can be considered the number two need for the team – just behind the gaping hole that is left field. But while the left field hole is larger, shortstop may actually be the...

With the acquisition of Adam LaRoche and Chris Duncan, the Red Sox have made some aggressive moves to shore up their offense. With the moves, it is likely that the Sox are done acquiring anyone who primarily plays first and left field. Thus, Ryan Spilborghs and Josh...

As Nick Green and Julio Lugo team up in an attempt to break the record for most errors out of shortstop (and we thought Edgar Renteria was bad), it’s time to start looking at outside options. Green has been a great fill-in with the bat after no one expected him...

With each growing day here in the early stages of Off-Season 2007-08, the idea of Mike Lowell taking the extra year + cash to play for a different team looks more and more truthful. The Red Sox have maintained through this process that they will not go further than...

A Matt Moore grand slam capped off a seven run inning for the Baltimore Orioles who beat the Boston Red Sox 11-5. Nick Markakis and Tike Redman homered for the Orioles and David Ortiz had two doubles while hitting his 28th homerun of the season, but Matsuzaka had a...
