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

The Sox are already missing Jacoby Ellsbury (shoulder), Carl Crawford (elbow), Ryan Kalish (shoulder), Da...

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...

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 ...

Fantasy Baseball Is War- Don’t Panic Yet
Posted on 8 Apr 2011 by Mo Johnson.
Don’t worry, I UNDERSTAND. It's the first week of the season and your team is already sitting in last place. In fact your team is doing so bad that you are sure the other owners are plotting to kick you out of the league. After all the pre-draft work and the feeling of post-draft glow THIS is the result!! All you can do is look at your team and just mutter, ...

Home Sweet Home Is Just What The Red Sox Need…Badly!
Posted on 8 Apr 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
I know I promised you a pitching outlook for the 2011 season, but instead I spent all week looking for tickets to opening day. Having no luck, I decided to take matters in my own hands and attended a “ticket giveaway” at a local bar. I rounded up my friend Bob, and we set out last night determined to win those tickets. Guess what, we are going to Opening Day! Yes, the Red Sox are ...

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...

FBIW#8- Third Base Report
Posted on 29 Mar 2011 by Mo Johnson.
The hot corner is a bit of a hot potato this year. The players moving in and out of the position could make you dizzy. Jose Bautista, Martin Prado, Kevin Youkilis, Chone Figgins and even the evil Jhonny Peralta all will be able to claim a number 5 on your fantasy team’s defensive slots. This turns out to be very useful as it propels third out of the shallow ...

The Red Sox Another Devasting Loss; Kevin Youkilis Out For The Season
Posted on 5 Aug 2010 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
With the Red Sox lineup slowly nursing itself back to health, they suffered one of the biggest losses of the season. Kevin Youkilis went on the DL Tuesday, after suffering a torn adductor muscle in his right thumb in Monday night's game. He traveled to the Cleveland Clinic Wednesday and it was determined he will have season ending surgery Friday to repair him thumb. The Red Sox have battled inj...

Is the long ball worth it?
Posted on 8 Jul 2010 by Trevor Stewart.
You've always heard the famous saying “chicks dig the long ball,” but can that be overrated in some cases? In the fantasy game you want and need players to hit homers for you, even more so in head-to-head and rotisserie league formats. In points formats you may be able to achieve success without power hitters going off batting average and RBIs and other stats. So if you are strapped...

April Showers, Bring Red Sox May Power
Posted on 2 Jun 2010 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
Brace yourself for a long one folks. It has been way too long since my last blog. May is in the books and Red Sox Nation is feeling good. The Red Sox have done a complete 180 in the month of May. They are not out of the woods yet but they are on the right path. We don't need to be reminded of how disappointing April was, but let's do it anyway. April: 11-12, 103 runs, .259 avg, 27 HR, .262 Opp ...

Red Sox Hover at .500, Stealing a Game From New York
Posted on 19 May 2010 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
The Red Sox are in the middle of a 13-day stretch in which they play 11 games on the road. Monday they stopped in New York for a quick 2 game series. Wait, “quick” is probably not the best choice of words when describing a Sox vs Yankee game. The Daisuke Matsuzaku we all know and hate was back in action. He got our hopes up last week when he threw one of his best games as a Red Sox....
