Red Sox Fielding ‘Worst Case Scenario’

Red Sox Fielding ‘Worst Case Scenario’
The Red Sox are frustrated with the Boston media. Both radio stations, both major print sources, and hundreds of blogs coupled with the anonymous blabber machine of Twitter have allowed for the Sox contingency to hear every gripe and complaint coming from outside of Yawkey Way in 2012. All the sports betting...

Sox Thoughts

Sox Thoughts
Having come back from the all star break with some new found energy, the Red Sox look energized and ready to fight for the rest of their season.  Taking two of three from the Rays was nice, but I want to see them do the same against the White Sox.  Here are a few Sox thoughts.

Red Sox are Halfway Home

Red Sox are Halfway Home
Here we stand at the unofficial halfway point of the baseball season and the Red Sox are teetering at a .500 record.  So far the season has been marred by inconsistency, underperformance, and injury.  All of it has added up to a team that can’t decide if it is a good team or a horrible one.  Keep in...

Dwight Evans for the Hall of Fame? One Fan Makes a Very Strong Case

Dwight Evans for the Hall of Fame? One Fan Makes a Very Strong Case
By Saul Wisnia Even casual Red Sox fans know that Manny Ramirez wore number 24 while with the Red Sox from 2001-2008, but Patrick Languzzi is focused on getting another outfielder who donned that digit for Boston the recognition he deserves. For nearly 20 years in the 1970s and ‘80s, #24 belonged to a much...

No “I” in Red Sox, There is in Time

No “I” in Red Sox, There is in Time
For the past three months, I have been watching the Boston Red Sox and asking myself why I don’t like them. Why I can’t like them? I’ve loved this team forever. After months of soul searching, it seems the answer is clear. Since September of 2011, we have all become privy to A LOT of...

Red Sox Plead the Fifth… Starter

Red Sox Plead the Fifth… Starter
While the first three starters of the 2012 edition of the Red Sox are all established, excellent pitchers, the last two are another matter entirely.  At the end of last season, the 2012 rotation was set to be Lester, Beckett, Buchholz, Lackey, and Matsuzaka.  But Matsuzaka’s return from Tommy John...

BEASTS OF THE EAST 2012: TAMPA BAY RAYS
Tampa Bay Rays 2012: Covert Arms Stockpile The Tampa Bay Rays haven’t flown under anyone’s radar since the improbable run to the World Series in 2008. And with a Wild Card berth last year you would think they’d still be considered a force to be reckoned with. But with a media circus following Bobby...

BEASTS OF THE AL EAST 2012: TORONTO BLUE JAYS

BEASTS OF THE AL EAST 2012: TORONTO BLUE JAYS
Toronto Blue Jays 2012: Runnin’ With the Farrell Another season removed from the post Vernon Wells era, and the Mike Napoli error, the 2012 Toronto Blue Jays look to make a name for themselves in the AL East that isn’t preceded by “4th place” or “perennial basement dwellers”. 2011 was a solid...
