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,...

After suffering through a slump that wouldn’t go away, the Red Sox finally dropped the hammer Tuesday, optioning the struggling Will Middlebrooks to Triple-A Pawtucket where they’ll hope he can find whatever might be left of his swing. To some fans, the demotion was a...

I’ve never been a fan of voting for the All-Star game when ballots first open in April. I get that voting is a popularity contest and geared toward casual fans, but I like my vote to count. That’s why I always hold my ballot off until the last two or three...

The Red Sox (11-16) get out of town, and none too soon, to play a three-game series against the lowly Kansas City Royals (9-18). The Royals have some talent but not enough to, you know, consistently win. The Royals will host the 2012 MLB All-Star Game to celebrate the...
