New poll time, jerks! So with the playoffs within the reach, the discussion will inevitably begin to shift towards match-ups. Of the major contenders in the American League, who do you want the Red Sox to play THE LEAST? Vote and tell us! Oh and before we forget – our...

If I told you at that start of the year that the Red Sox would have a Rookie of the Year candidate in their lineup, who would you have guessed? Jackie Bradley, right? Maybe Ryan Lavarnway if you were feeling particularly bold? Or Xander Bogaerts, if you were feeling...

There is nothing better than a walk-off Red Sox win. It doesn’t matter how many we have in a season, they never get old. There is the initial moment of doubt. Does it have enough to get out of here? Is it going to stay fair? Will the ball get through the drawn...

SEVENTEEN runs. Oh lawdy. Save some for the rest of the series, Sox, you’re probably gonna need ’em! I’m not gonna lie, it felt really good to see the Red Sox flatten the Rangers for once. But take it all in while you can, because it probably...

Well, that was a good start by the Red Sox to one of the most hellish June schedules you’ll ever see. Back to Boston to take on the Rangers! Rain or shine, the Red Sox came to play on Sunday night. And even before the storm rolled in, there were a couple...

There are only two categories of people in this world: People who put people into two categories, and those that don’t. I am in the first category. One of the many groups of people that I put into two categories are relief pitchers. When you see the bullpen door open...

Someone needed to have hit the ejector seat switch way before Sunday for the Red Sox. What a frustrating series. Just cannot win in Arlington. I mean, sure, it wasn’t as bad since the walk-off was hit by our old buddy Adrian Beltre, but…it was still pretty...
