For whatever reason, I’ve been having a large number of conversations about Red Sox retired numbers lately. From students trying to get me on a tangent by asking who they all are to discussions about whether Pedro Martinez’ return on Opening Day was a play...

Outfielder Mike Cameron admittedly isn’t 100 percent. After playing his second rehabilitation game for Triple-A Pawtucket on Tuesday against Gwinnett, it’s the closest he’s been to returning to Boston since he was placed on the disabled list April 19 with a lower...

With the Red Sox treading water just above .500 after a month and a half of the season, its too early to fully embrace the “wait ’till next year” mentality. At the same time however, you had better believe Theo Epstein and his advisors have played...

Drew Back on Track No Sox hitter in the past two weeks has been hotter than J.D. Drew. In Boston’s last ten games, he’s batted 17-for-36 with three homers. The eight Ks are a bit unfortunate, but nothing concerning. Not including last night, his first strike...
