Do you remember where you were on the night of November 12, 2010? No? Good, because unless a momentous occasion happened in your life, than it shouldn’t ring a bell. On that night, however, the Red Sox traded lefty relief pitcher Dustin Richardson to the...

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...

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....

The 2 days following the MLB All-Star game are often referred to as “the most boring days in sports”. With the MLB on consecutive off days and every other sport out of season, television — at least for me — becomes unwatchable. But just because...

A deep farm system is a good problem to have, but it still causes problems that will eventually need to be solved by the front office. For example, the Boston Red Sox, heading into the all star break, have been fielding three natural second basemen in their lineups...

The Boston Red Sox finished up a 10-game road trip with two straight wins against the New York Yankees Saturday and Sunday. After going 2-6 through the first eight games, the Red Sox won a road series for the first time in the month to end the month of June. The Red...

1. Is it time to worry about the Red Sox? Grab some wood their, bub. Not so fast. Entering this most recent series against the Giants, the Red Sox had lost nine of 14 games against the Astros, Royals, Blue Jays, and Yankees–a crew they should have won nine of...

When I first set out to write this column on Sunday, my idea was pretty simple: highlight which Red Sox prospects have done the most to improve their value in 2013, as well as those who’ve taken major steps back in their development. Filling out the first part of the...

Summertime brings warm weather, trips to the beach… and prospect writers unveiling their updated Red Sox prospects rankings. I’ve taken a look at how the rankings have changed for the Red Sox top prospects from preseason to midseason. One caveat to these rankings is...
