The Red Sox are 60-77 entering play September 2 (Have the Sox really only lost 17 times less than they have won? It has felt like waaaaaaayy more than that.) It has been discussed, ad nauseam if we are to be honest, what there is to look forward to in September:...

Surprise, surprise. The Red Sox are out of it. Okay, that may not be STRICTLY true, strictly as in mathematically speaking. To be precise, Boston’s elimination number remains at 11. Their elimination number being the number of losses (or wins by a leading team)...

Please forgive the horrible pun in the title. I played around with a few other ideas before settling on that one, and as silly as it is, it’s rather apt. Daniel Nava is an anomaly, quite like anyone else who’s ever played in major league baseball. Most of us are aware...
