The Red Sox minor league season wrapped up this week, with five affiliates making the playoffs and two teams (The Pawtucket Red Sox and the Gulf Coast League Red Sox) winning championships. It was another tremendous year of development in the Red Sox minor league...

The Red Sox began their second to last road series of the 2014 season with a loss against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night. Two Pirates home runs, and an unproductive offense spoiled an otherwise effective start from the 25-year old rookie. Pittsburgh backstop...

With the season effectively over, it sometimes feels pointless and futile to recapitulate the goings on of the team from day to day and week to week from here on out. It seems extraneous and irrelevant to analyze players’ performances if they are all for naught....

One of the biggest strengths of last year’s Red Sox team was the strong performances the squad got from its bench spots. Indeed, Boston’s depth proved crucial in taking advantage of platoon pairings on a nightly basis, softening the blow of any injuries to starters,...

PAWTUCKET, R.I. – Somewhere in baseball’s book of clichés is the one that says all a manager can hope for from his starting pitcher is that he keeps his team in the game. That was the story Thursday afternoon when Pawtucket Red Sox right-hander Rubby De La Rosa...

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...

PAWTUCKET, R.I. — Before the Pawtucket Red Sox season is over, first-year manager Kevin Boles hopes his team will rack up a host of positive accomplishments. Suffice to say Thursday night’s season opener against the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs was the first of what...

One of the many “Midas Touch” acquisitions made by Ben Cherington last season was Mike Carp. Purchased on February 20 from Seattle, Carp posted a line of .296/.362/.523. That slugging percentage was a career high, and the average and on base percentage were his best...
