Yes, it’s only April. Yes, the Red Sox have only played thirteen games, and it’s still too early to make any real judgments. But they are 4-9 in those thirteen games, and although it may be early, the Sox may already be looking to make some changes. Minor League...

Bobby Valentine has a problem. He likes to talk. For most people, this wouldn’t be a problem. For Bobby, though, he tends to gossip to people he shouldn’t. To be fair, I feel a little bad for him. He’s a new guy in a big city without a lot of...

Today, I’m releasing the second installment of my “Five Questions with the Enemy” series. From time to time, I’ll check in with other writers within the baseball blogosphere to discuss their team, an upcoming series with the Red Sox, or just general...

The Red Sox celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first game at Fenway Park with the opener of a three-game series against their long-time rival, the New York Yankees. The Yankees haven’t really had quality starting pitching yet this year, but watch out when...

As the Bobby V world turns… Of all of the things I thought I’d find on the Boston Globe website today, the last thing I thought I’d find was an article defending Valentine’s actions from Sunday night. Looking back at it now, I was clearly...

It’s usually hard to find things that went wrong in a 12-2 victory. That being said, it would be unfit to call the events of the Red Sox’ home opener anything more than bittersweet. Reid Brignac did his very best Adrian Beltre impression last Friday when he came...
