While free agents like Pablo Sandoval and Chase Headley are both logical fits for the Red Sox at third base, it’s important to not overlook a player like Hanley Ramirez. A shortstop by trade, Ramirez figures to slide over to third base in the near future due to...

On Friday, the Seattle Mariners made Robinson Cano the third-richest player in MLB history. I’d call it a statement signing, but that doesn’t really quite cut it. This was, put simply, a coup; a player just left the NEW YORK YANKEES for a team that lost 91 games last...

Well, the Red Sox might already be done with all that signing free agents stuff. It’s only December 9th! That just seems so crazy at this point… Was that it? Ben Cherington might be done with his offseason wheelin’ & dealin’ and it’s...

Holy offseason, Batman! Everything just decided to snowball this week. This week has been chaotic in terms of headlines and breaking news in baseball. The Red Sox aren’t making many big moves, but instead they’re just shoring up weaknesses right now,...

ESPN’s standings currently have the Red Sox sitting at a 99.9% chance of making the playoffs. So is it a lock that Boston will once against be dancing in October? Of course not! But just how close are they to winning the AL East? Even if the Red Sox go a modest 7-8...
