With the series tied at two games a piece, the Red Sox and Yankees played the rubber match of the 3-game set on Thursday night. David Ortiz gave the Red Sox an early one-run advantage after he cranked his 31st home run of the season off New York’s starter Chris...

With another week of baseball in the books for the 2014 season the Red Sox remain the cellar dwellers of the AL East. Despite playing putrid baseball for the majority of the season, the Red Sox just turned in one of their most productive weeks of baseball; going 4-2...

It was a quiet off day in Red Sox Nation, as the team headed back to Fenway after a weekend in Toronto. Boston is set to meet the Tampa Bay Rays for the first time this year, as John Lackey squares off against Erik Bedard. Like the Red Sox, the Rays have stumbled out...

Here’s my ranking of the top 15 prospects in the Red Sox minor league system, ranked on their ability and likelihood to impact the major league club. The top ten players should all start the year at Double A or higher, giving an indication of the amount of talent the...

Y’know what, guys, come down to Phoenix for a week. We’ll play baseball until we can’t and then, once we’re done, we’ll go see some Spring Training stuff. Cool? Cool. You want nostalgia? We’ve got it. Roger Clemens, Nomar...

I can still picture him in my head, crouched in that unusual batting stance, uncoiling to lash a line drive into the outfield or drive a ball into the seats. Jeff Bagwell put up tremendous offensive numbers during his 15 year major league career, numbers that should...

Well, I certainly can’t hate a West Coast road trip where the Red Sox win at least half their games. Now that was a show of force by Boston. Behind a dominant performance by Jake Peavy, the Red Sox crushed the Los Angeles Dodgers – baseball’s hottest...

Monday was one of the most exciting days in quite some time for fans of Red Sox prospects, as Xander Bogaerts joined the team. If you want the full story on Bogaerts and his potential, Ben Carsley did a great job summing it up here. My mind has been churning all week...

I have never really liked John Lackey. I hate his demeanor on the mound, the way he mopes around after a bad inning or throws his hands up in the air after an error is committed behind him. I dislike his somewhat flippant attitude towards the press, even if some...

This past offseason was a crowded one for the Red Sox, with several old faces moving out the door and many new ones coming in. While players like Shane Victorino, Mike Napoli and (believe it or not) Jonny Gomes received most of the headlines, the one singing that...
