Every time I hear new information from the Roger Clemens steroid trial, I cringe a little bit. First, Brian McNamee indicated he “was pretty much in charge of his (Clemens) body,” which is all sorts of creepy. Now, this disturbing little nugget comes...

Last night, Tim Wakefield accomplished something no other pitcher ever has: he recorded his 8,329th out as a member of the Boston Red Sox. For those who are less than mathematically inclined (like myself), that’s 2,776 and 1/3 innings, one out more than Roger...

The Can-Am Worcester Tornadoes have offered Manny Ramirez a contract for two years at $24,000. With Worcester as my birth city and a city I still frequent multiple times a week, it would be great if he signed. The Tornadoes have had former Red Sox prospects play for...

According to a report by the Boston Herald, the Red Sox franchise is ready to change their long-standing policy regarding the retirement of a player’s number. All indications are this change is being made to allow the team to honor unofficial team ambassador...

Mike Mussina responded to comments Theo Epstein made about Mussina and his complains on going to Japan in 2004. Said Theo: “Kevin Brown and Mike Mussina spent the whole time b—tching about it … and by the time the Yankees team got back from the trip...
