He was the story of the spring, the 31-year-old outfielder signed on a one-year flyer after myriad injuries knocked him out of professional baseball for over two years. Heading into the 2014 season, Grady Sizemore looked like he might just become the story of the...

It was a quiet off day in Red Sox Nation, as the team headed back to Fenway after a weekend in Toronto. Boston is set to meet the Tampa Bay Rays for the first time this year, as John Lackey squares off against Erik Bedard. Like the Red Sox, the Rays have stumbled out...

For starters, let’s be clear: the 2014 Red Sox have not played good defense. Not by any stretch. Right now, this is the 26th ranked team in the league in terms of Ultimate Zone rating, with a mark of -9.2, after a 2013 in which they ranked 10th with a 21.6 mark in the...

Last week, I asked you to qualify your level of concern with Clay Buchholz’s rough start to 2014. To that point, Buchholz had been inconsistent, with two starts of six innings and two earned runs allowed, and two starts with six runs allowed (one of which lasted...

The Boston Red Sox stand at 12-13 through almost a complete month of the seasonand are only 2.5 games behind the New York Yankees for the top spot in the AL East. After a slow start with the offense, pieces are starting to come back and the Red Sox have started to win...

Ladies and Gentlemen. This is the player the Red Sox were willing to hand the starting center field job to. Obviously, last year didnt quite go as planned, but from here on out, Jackie Bradley is here to stay. I’ll admit it, I’m about as big of a Daniel...

It has been nearly a month, but the Boston Red Sox will finally have their full lineup Friday night in Toronto against the Blue Jays. Will Middlebrooks, who got hurt four games into the season with a calf strain, will be activated from the 15-day DL before...

It was certainly a night to forget at Fenway Park on Thursday, as the Red Sox and Yankees meet in the final game of a three game set. Boston sent Felix Doubront to the hill and watched him surrender 7 runs(3 earned) on 6 hits, before finally pulling him from the game...
