We’ve been discussing the options at thirdbase for a while now. I made my stance Thursday for no Mike Lowell. Who do I want? The answer is in this article: Miguel Cabrera. We’ve discussed Cabrera all weekend; let’s discuss him some more. On Thursday,...

Oh, to be a fly on the wall at this year
by evan brunell | Nov 8, 2007 | Mike Lowell
Yeah. I did just say it. I’ll say it again. Do not bring back Mike Lowell. Why would we bring back Mike Lowell? Just because he’s a nice guy? Because he rode a hot streak to MVP of the World Series? Yeah, he did hit .320. Yeah, he did lead the team in RBI...

I am not the only one. I am not the only one who has said the following words: “If the Boston Red Sox organization decides to take A-Rod over Mike Lowell, I will seriously consider not being a Red Sox fan.” Yes, I would have taken the Alex Rodriguez of...

What would Bill Belichick do if he was told that he had to sit down either Tom Brady, Randy Moss or Wes Welker for a championship game? What would Doc Rivers do if he was told he had to sit either Paul Pierce, Ray Allen or Kevin Garnett in the NBA Finals? Terry...

Coin it a new term: The Papa-Jima show. Curt Schilling called the duo of Hideki Okajima and Jonathan Papelbon the Papa-Jima show after both dominated the Colorado Rockies in the 2-1 win in Game 2 of the World Series. Both combined for 3 2/3 innings of scoreless relief...

What a totally satisfying series. What truly made it great, and will indeed define it down the road as memorable, is that there was a moment of absolute despair. Just like the 2004 ALCS, there was a moment where I couldn’t think of a way out. That was in game...

So the honeymoon’s over. Prior to last night, this postseason had a charmed feeling to it. I was one of the many Red Sox leaping to foregone conclusions. I received an email informing me that I was not a winner of the World Series ticket lottery, so my friend...

Game 1: Wednesday, October 3rd. One of the great things about playoff baseball is that it brings old friends together. Especially for fans that have left their home team
