It was quiet week in Red Sox rumor land this week, as the front office, it’s fans and those of us with enough time on our hands to write about them fell in and out of Turkey coma. However with the mass slaughter of birds over and cream puffs consumed, it’s time to get...

Welcome to the second weekly edition of Red Sox Hot Stove Rumors. From here on out, we’ll be synthesizing everything Red Sox hot-stove related into one, nice, neat , steaming pile of crap for you to smell every week. We’ll mildly speculate, grandstand, posture and...

Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve taken a long look at the Red Sox’s current roster. I’ve reviewed player performance, examined contract situations, and made assessments of each player’s future in Bostonin 2013. (See Part 1 on Position Players and Part...

When the Red Sox have selected their new manager, one of the biggest tasks in front of them will be to find a first baseman. That’s not easy, as the free-agent class is fairly weak in that category and the Sox have no obvious fits in the organization. But...

Coming off of the heels of a 69-93 season, their first 90 loss season since 1966, the Red Sox are in desperate need of a roster makeover. While many have already turned their attention toward the shiniest assets of the Hot Stove season, Ben Cherington and his crew...

I haven’t seen an official list of the potential replacements for Bobby Valentine yet, but if there is one, then I hope Pawtucket Red Sox Manager Arnie Beyler’s name is on it. Of any of the potential internal candidates (Gary Tuck, Tim Bogar, Dave Magadin), Beyeler is...

After being swept at the hands of the Orioles, the Boston Red Sox (69-90, 23 games behind in the AL East) jump on the Acela Express to New York City for their final series of the season against the New York Yankees (92-67, tied for first in the AL East and in the AL...

As the Red Sox’s season from hell draws to a close, I can’t help but look ahead at the offseason, which should be full of plenty of intrigue for the Red Sox. If we’ve learned one thing since the trade shed a quarter-billion from Boston coffers,...

After taking only one of three against the Orioles, the Boston Red Sox (69-85, 20.5 games back in the AL East) welcome the Tampa Bay Rays (83-70, 6 games back in the AL East, 3 games back in the AL Wild Card race) to Fenway Park for a two-game series. These will be...

Having taken two of three from the Blue Jays, the still-in-last-place Boston Red Sox (66-81, 17.5 games back in the AL East) visit that soul-sucking slice of hell known as Tropicana Field to play the Tampa Bay Rays (78-68, 5 games back in the AL East, 4 games back in...
