Let’s start looking at things logically, shall we?
Josh Beckett gave up just a little too much last night in the Bronx. The Sox are hoping Curt Schilling won’t give up quite enough tonight so the team can avoid a sweep.
The Sox still have a significant lead in the AL East. As long as they win [...]
He just couldn’t help himself.
Curt Schilling was out of the spotlight. His team was finding a way to win for two straight days, pushing across enough runs against the woeful Tampa Bay Devil Rays to cruise after surviving a four-game series against the AL West leading Los Angeles Angels. Of course, Schilling was part [...]
Anyone else know what to make of yesterday’s split doubleheader?
How often is it that you have two 15-game winners pitching on the same day, in the same ballpark, and neither one gets a win? I mean really, can somebody get Elias on that one? And how often is it that you have one catcher [...]
OK, Josh Beckett, now you need to win.
Allright, now it’s time to cut out the question marks and crap. It’s time to win Josh.
Now you need to pitch the way the Red Sox thought you would when the shipped one of the game’s most highly touted shortstop prospects - now reigning NL rookie of [...]
Can we call it a race now?
Hideki Okajima has been spectacular, but he and his bullpen mates have been some of the only bright spots of late.
Boston currently leads New York by six games. Only six games. That’ll still be true tonight when the Red Sox roll into Camden Yards (for the epic “Take [...]
Believe what you will about superstitions and jinxes, but this can not be good for Red Sox fans anywhere.
Nooooo! Why didn’t someone just stab Terry Francona with a cocktail fork?
Last week I was in New York, walking around with a Red Sox hat while trying not to get jumped. You know, your basic day [...]
Let’s start at the beginning: there’s no one more surprised at Tim Wakefield’s success than me.
The Professor is proving his worth, game in, game out.
He’s old. He looks like your uncle, you know, the nice, quiet one who always lets you sneak sneak away with the extra slice of pizza marked for him while he [...]
At times he’s been a superstar. At times he’s been mediocre. But no matter what, Daisuke Matsuzaka has been interesting.
The Kaibutsu has had plenty of hype, and he’s reached it in a lot of different categories, good and bad.
For a pitcher who entered with enough hype to nauseate two different countries, Dice-K has a lot [...]
Kason Gabbard, it’s time we start calling you by your earned title: Red Sox fifth starter.
Right now, the only thing Kason Gabbard doesn’t have going for him is his hair.
Sure, it’s just a start (all puns intended). But being named a permanent fifth starter - not just a Schilling fill in - is quite [...]
OK, let’s start at the beginning. The Kansas City Royals used to be a great team. Then, after the decline and retirement of George Brett and co., they were a classy organization that was nearly universally respected. It was only a matter of time before they bounced back and put together a contender, or so [...]
