J.D. Drew will be forgotten. His number won’t be retired. A statue of commemoration will never stand outside Fenway Park. We might mumble something about his grand slam to our grandchildren. The history books will mark him as the right fielder for the Boston Red Sox...

With the non-waiver trade deadline having recently passed; the waiver deadline bearing few fruit in terms of rumors; and September call-ups right around the corner, I thought I’d take a little bit of time to examine who the Red Sox might consider promoting once...

The Sox certainly had their minds set on trading for an oft injured starting pitcher. They got their man in Erik Bedard. The positive is that this acquisition has cost the Sox very little in terms of their farm system. If Bedard can shake of the rust and stay healthy,...

While Tim Wakefield and Alfredo Aceves have stepped up big-time filling in for John Lackey and Daisuke Matsuzaka, we have to be realistic about our expectations for their future performance. Wakefield hasn’t posted an ERA or FIP under 4.50 since 2008 and...

I had a really grand article planned for today, but due to the craziness that is my life, I wasn’t able to get it together in time. Since it was going to be on the upcoming Yankee-Red Sox series, it’s not something that I will be able to run next week. I...

In a sense, it was the verbal equivalent of a high-and-tight fastball — a pitch that sends a batter sprawling in the dirt to avoid getting beaned. Or to put it another way, it was a proverbial wake-up call, one that in retrospect had a great deal to do with the...

photo © 2009 Eric Kilby | more info (via: Wylio)The Pawtucket Red Sox – and, by extension, Boston – will be holding their collective breath regarding the condition of outfielder Ryan Kalish. Kalish, who’s considered by many baseball observers to be J.D. Drew’s...

.271/.340/.452, 20 HR, 43 SB, 94 R and 82 RBI in 641 PA’s That’s an all-star. That’s a fantasy beast. That’s the 2011 projection for Ryan Kalish published by Bill James. Look, I’m a big Ryan Kalish fan (and a huge Bill James fan), but...

After Sunday night’s heartbreaker, the Sox have three games to shave 2.5 off of the Wildcard chase… Ryan Kalish… Kalishnikov… AK-47… whichever nickname you prefer, has done quite a job in Jacoby Ellsbury’s stead. The main piece of the Sox second-half patchwork...
