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 ...

Red Sox At The Break On Top
Posted on 15 Jul 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
I apologize for disappearing the last TWO months. The Bruins fully redirected my focus this spring. Not in my wildest dreams did I expect to be sitting at an ice rink deep into June. I was fortunate to attend Game 7 vs. Montreal, Game 4 vs. Philly, Game 2 vs. Tampa Bay and Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals. I got into Game 6 FREE, by being my outgoing self and talking to a stranger next to me at...

New Label, Same Great Taste: Early Season Review of Your 2011 Tampa Bay Rays
Posted on 13 May 2011 by Nick Blanchard.
Since coming back from a left oblique strain that landed him on the DL, Longoria has hit .310/.429/.655 in 9 May games. Tampa Bay has gone 7-2 since his return. 2011 has been a story of resiliency for the Tampa Bay Rays thus far. They opened the season losing 6 straight games and dropping their first three series (BAL, LAA, CHW). To compound the defeats, they also lost their star third baseman...

Dice-K Preserves His Rotation Spot With One Of His Career Best
Posted on 20 Apr 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
Monday the Red Sox looked to extend their first winning streak of the season against the Toronto Blue Jays. Could they make three in row? Patriots Day in Boston is one of the most exciting days of the year with the Boston Marathon and Red Sox game happening simultaneously. Boston is filled with optimism that day, whether it's for the thousands of runners trying to finish the marathon or for ...

2011 Red Sox Season Preview: They May Be The Best Team “On Paper” But They Still Have To Play The Game
Posted on 1 Apr 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
It's been a brutal winter here in New England (it is snowing right now), but the sure way to get me out of hibernation is the Boston Red Sox. In fact the only good thing about this winter was the Red Sox off season. Unless you were living in a cave, you know the Red Sox won the off season war. Their blockbuster moves put them in the driver's seat of the entire league. They made two monster deal...

2011 MLB Preview: Looking at Adrian Gonzalez and the Boston Red Sox on Paper
Posted on 30 Mar 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
The Red Sox had the most disappointing season of any team in baseball a year ago. General Manager Theo Epstein went out and was extremely aggressive in the offseason. They went out and acquired Adrian Gonzalez via trade before the winter meetings. Then they signed Carl Crawford to a seven-year $142 million contract. Boston also made some under-the-radar signings to bolster the bullpen by...

The Wells Deal: Sayonara $126 Million Man
Posted on 21 Jan 2011 by Ben Fisher.
Welcome to Toronto, Mike Napoli and (possibly) Juan Rivera. Mike, you will likely be our DH this year and Juan, you’ll get plenty of playing time in an outfield currently comprised of you, Travis Snider and Rajai Davis (yes, that’s it). Oh, and by the way, whatever you two can contribute this season is simply bonus since you guys have already helped us shed an albatross of a contract. In th...

Boston Getting Spoiled with Back to Back Near Perfect Weeks
Posted on 13 Dec 2010 by Geoff Poster.
As if last week for Boston sports was not good enough, the city decided to grace it's sports' fans with another near perfect week once more. The only blemish once again was one loss for the Bruins while the rest of the city was able to rack up wins from both the Celtics and Patriots. Also, the Red Sox continued to roll through the off season by acquiring quite possibly the biggest free agent on...

Angels in a Winter Wonder-land
Posted on 10 Dec 2010 by Bill Mahoney.
The Baseball Winter meetings are over and the Angels head home empty-handed. Before I get to the obvious, I will tell you that four American League teams did absolutely nothing in Orlando: Texas, Oakland, New York and, drum roll please, the Angels. Most think the Angels lost out on Carl Crawford. I am in the minority in thinking they didn’t. Hear me out. Crawford is a dynamic player, one tha...

Make an offer Werth can’t Refuse!
Posted on 27 Nov 2010 by Christopher Rowe.
It is not news that Jayson Werth is the best free agent on the market. It is also not news that the odds of Jayson Werth being a Phillies in 2011 vary somewhere between “slim” and “none.” The Phillies have made it clear that they have other salary and contract considerations and that they “have to draw the line somewhere.” Media sharks have placed Werth into ...

Boston Teams Enjoy Being Away from Home
Posted on 15 Nov 2010 by Geoff Poster.
A successful week is in the books for Boston sports. The Celtics took to the road for their first major trip of the season and came out looking great, while the Patriots got back to their winning ways after suffering a miserable loss in Cleveland last week. The Bruins on the other hand? What's gotten into them lately? The Boston Red Sox So I did not mention the Sox at all in my introduction to...
