A Thumb War Victory for One, Armageddon for another….
Posted on 5 Jun 2012 by Jefferson Mills.
With the good usually comes the bad which is definitely the case on this Tuesday afternoon for the Boston Red Sox. You always have to start with the good news which involves a risky move paying off for the Sox Brass as Dustin Pedroia will be in tonight’s starting lineup, avoiding a DL stint which about a week ago seemed imminent. Because of his importance to the team, Bobby V and company deci...

The Element of Respect Becoming Somewhat Relevant Again on Yawkey Way
Posted on 31 May 2012 by Jefferson Mills.
The element of Respect is one that is extremely undervalued in today’s society. Whether it’s in the workplace or the common world it’s a hard thing to acquire but even tougher to sustain for a consistent period of time. It’s a cherished commodity that takes immense time to accrue, but only seconds to lose if negative actions are made by an individual or individuals. 50 games into this...

Is it Time to Pull the Plug on the Daniel Bard Experiment?
Posted on 24 May 2012 by Jefferson Mills.
There seems to be an odd resemblance between the famous classic rock band Aerosmith and newly converted starter Daniel Bard’s 2012 season. The original version of the song “Walk This Way” was a top 100 hit that also helped revitalize the career of Aerosmith in the late 80’s when Run DMC covered the song in 1986. After recording four more walks in yesterdays start, Bard might be trying t...

Clay’ s Way’s Continue to be an Immense Concern
Posted on 22 May 2012 by Jefferson Mills.
In the last two weeks, the Boston Red Sox starting rotation seems to have dug themselves out of the mud they were entrenched in the beginning of this season. Lester has won his last two decisions including the first complete game of the year for the staff, Beckett has gone at least seven innings in his last two starts surrendering only one earned run since being tee’d up for 7 runs against th...

Sox outshine Orioles 8-6, reach .500 record
Posted on 21 May 2012 by Erika Leigh.
The last place Red Sox and the first place Baltimore Orioles meet again, but this time, the game was a little easier for Sox fans to watch (and thankfully ended in just 9 innings). More importantly, the Red Sox are finally at .500 for the season. Despite not having the rocket power behind Cody Ross’ bat at the plate, after discovering a navicular bone fracture in his left foot, the Sox manage...

Cody’s Concern: An unfortunate fractured foot
Posted on 21 May 2012 by Erika Leigh.

Cody Ross Knows How to be a Boss
Posted on 18 May 2012 by Jefferson Mills.
The Evil word instability has been one that the Red Sox are very fond of when referring to their outfield in the last few years. The man without a pulse in J.D. Drew, or can also be known as Nancy for his ability to fight through any tough hangnail that came his way, upon the end of last season when his contract expired. That was after he collected his 5 years and $72 million dollars which wh...

Opinion: Interleague Play and the Return of Youk
Posted on 18 May 2012 by Erika Leigh.
With interleague play picking up, you can certainly expect a shakeup in the Sox lineup. In the first series of interleague play, which starts tonight for the Red Sox at 7:05pm, they'll take on the Philadelphia Phillies (20-19) in Philadephia. (Bard (3-4) vs. Hamels (5-1) NESN/CSN). Who's going to play and where? We'll likely see Big Papi perched at 1B, giving Gonzalez some time in the outfield ...

No more Joshing Around… For Now
Posted on 16 May 2012 by Jefferson Mills.
Well Well Well! Look who decided to show up last night at Fenway Park. The rainy weather conditions did not bode well for Josh Beckett on the golf green which is why making his scheduled start probably took precedent over playing 18 holes. The Texas tough guy celebrated his 32nd birthday yesterday which leaves Red Sox nation curious as to what he might have gotten for presents. Callaway golf ...

Young Guns Lead Surge in the Trail of Tears
Posted on 14 May 2012 by Jefferson Mills.
Prior to this weekend, it seemed that Bobby Valentine and company were epitomizing the fable of “Chicken Little.” The sky was without a doubt falling rapidly as the Sox found themselves 7.5 games back of the first place Baltimore Orioles sporting an embarrassing 12-18 record going into what looked like was going to be another tough series against the AL Central leading Cleveland Indians. ...
