Wow, what a day for Boston sports. The Patriots’ camp is in session and early reports speak very highly of the rapport that Tom Brady and Randy Moss are developing, as well as Adalius Thomas’ seamless blend into the Belichick scheme of versatility. The...

5:16 PM A potential roster crunch was just solved … unfortunately. Brendan Donnelly is undergoing Tommy John surgery and will be out for the year. He did quite well for the BoSox and will be missed. However, it does ease the crunch on the bullpen. The bullpen...

Joel Pineiro, who may have become the closer (although that wouldn’t have lasted very long) had Jonathan Papelbon elected to remain in the starting rotation, has been traded along with cash considerations for a player to be named later. Pineiro, who ends his...

Alex Rodriguez playing for the Boston Red Sox. The dream scenario we envisioned and almost came to fruition in the winter of 03-04 once again has a chance to turn into reality. It

The series that just concluded at Safeco Field was undoubtedly one to forget. Just as the story has been written for the last few contests in the city of Seattle, the Red Sox have slumbered in defeat on three consecutive occasions and fallen to (gasp) 20 games above...

Ever since the news exploded onto the scene that the Red Sox were highly interested in acquiring Mark Buerhle, the fervor has been tempered somewhat. Immediately after the Chicago Sun-Times ran that explosive piece that all but assured a deal was imminent, the Boston...
