Not long ago, I logged on to Twitter to see that the Yankees were in first place in the AL East. It was their first time there this season and they have stayed in that area since, currently leading the Sox by one game after tonight. Understandably, I was a little...

Halfway done with the week, everyone. We’re almost there. Then it’s the holidays and candy and eggnog. Just think of all the eggnog. Do it for that. And these links too. You might’ve heard that Mike Napoli‘s deal may be in jeopardy. Don’t...

Push is coming to shove for the Red Sox to find a first baseman. Mike Napoli should have a home soon, while Adam LaRoche is drawing interest from multiple teams. If he goes back to the Nats, then Washington will have to trade Mike Morse. Oh yeah, Nick Swisher is still...

As CBSSports.com’s Jon Heyman reports, the Red Sox are intent on signing three hitters: Mike Napoli, Nick Swisher and Cody Ross. Yeah, those are the three wise men I made an awful pun of in the headline. I’m awesome. All three fit within the Red...
