I hope all of you are knee-deep in fantasy baseball drafts at this point, and I bid you all good luck. Quick tip: I wouldn’t draft Roy Halladay at any point before the 10th round. Clay Buchholz is having a solid March down in Ft. Myers. The groundballer is...

With the news of David Ortiz’s soreness in his heels breaking this past weekend, the prospects for Big Papi to play on Opening Day seem to be all but dashed. How long it will take Ortiz to get back into the lineup is a major question mark at this point, leaving the...

Fire Brand Trivia! It comes down to you! Question: In the last 5 seasons, only one player with over 200 plate appearances on the Red Sox had a walk-to-strikeout rate (BB/K) over 1. Who is he? (This question is a one-and-done, so only the response with the correct...

Can we be honest with each other? Yes? David Ortiz is not likely to be ready for Opening Day. I know… I know… I heard the 5-7 day projection, but that was not a projection until he will be ready, that is the prescription for rest. He could be rushed back,...

There is no shortage of opinions when it comes to patrons of The Internet and the Red Sox farm system. Boston’s minor league talent has become a focal point for fans at a time when our prospects are good and our major league team more challenged on paper than it has...

The lesson learned here, everyone, is never have a foot injury. Ever. It ruins everything, apparently. A few days ago, David Ortiz was running, and now…this. Disappointing? Sure. Season-derailing? Not really. He’ll be back soon enough. (Red Sox to shut...

Baltimore Orioles 2013 Season Preview When we starting the Know Thy Enemy series, I specifically requested to cover the Orioles. There was a specific reason for that – I wanted to write about what I think will be the biggest fall-to-earth team in baseball. I...

Although these questions will not determine the fate of the Boston Red Sox in 2013, they certainly are fun to think about and wager on. 1. One a scale of 1-10 how happy is Jacoby Ellsbury to be in a Red Sox uniform? I would say around a 7. While Ellsbury is not...

Spring Training brings optimism every year. It’s actually painful to look back and see how optimistic i was last season, because I spent all of March talking myself into Bobby Valentine. Sure, I told myself, he’s had his problems with the media, but he’s had success...
