After dropping 5 out of 7 games on the west coast, the Red Sox stumbled into just their second off day of the month. Boston is set to open a fairly important series with the team directly above them in the AL East standings this weekend: The New York Yankees....

There’s a new center fielder in town. Jackie Bradley Jr., through his considerable skill set, is now entrenched in center field for the foreseeable future. Out with the (relatively) old, in with the new, as they say. Bradley, however, has a tool that seems to be...

In the 2013 regular season the Red Sox committed 80 errors in 162 games. That total ranked them as the eight best team in the Majors and the fifth best in the American League (although strangely enough only fourth best in their own division behind Baltimore, Tampa...

The Red Sox and Yankees kicked off their second series of the 2014 season on Tuesday. With Jon Lester and Masahiro Tanaka on the mound, game 1 had the makings of a pitchers duel, but fell short of its expectations. Lester endured his first poor start of the 2014...

The human heart is essential for life. It pumps blood through our system and without it, a person can’t live. The same applies to the heart of a baseball order and a team’s success. A team could have a flailing heart that could lead to a dead offense, much...

Something of note: there will be a ton of Spring Training games broadcasted this year, and not just by ESPN. Looks to me like baseball is on the rise again. He says he’ll give a hometown discount, but what does Jon Lester mean by that? Just a few million off per...

Spring Training is only a couple weeks away. Sure, it’s a couple exhibitions against college kids, but baseball’s baseball. Hell, have them play Little Leagues if need be! It’s been a long winter. The glory of the World Series hasn’t completely...

Guys, I’m not gonna lie, I’m pretty spoiled here in Phoenix. It’s been like 75 degrees every day for the last few weeks. I can’t help how amazing it is at this time of year. He’s been the stalwart of the team since the early 2000s, and...

We might see a little gold rush for free agents sometime soon, with Spring Training starting next month. This could be a fun little Hot Stove ride late in the offseason. Like clockwork, David Ortiz is rumbling about his contract again. Though it’s not a bad idea...

Around this time ever year, we hit that tipping point where most of the offseason’s notable moves have already occurred. Sure, there are some free agents left to sort out (I.E. Stephen Drew, Nelson Cruz, Ubaldo Jimenez, etc.), but for the most part, the bigger pieces...
