BoSox Blotter

I’m not talking about Manny, but Hanley instead. With Theo gone we might see the top prospect in the farm system moved this off-season in an attempt to bolster starting pitching. Do I agree, not at all. Do I ever? Seldom.

Right now, the two teams hottest on Josh Beckett of the Marlins are Texas […]

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read it. Honestly, I’m not sure how my emotions would be if Nomar ever returned to Boston in any capacity.
time heals all wounds, and it wouldn’t be outrageous to suggest that Garciaparra could return to Boston as a left fielder, center fielder, third baseman, or first baseman should […]

It seems as though the BB’s have made it to the second round. Jim Beattie and Jim Bowden were invited back for second interviews for the club’s general manager’s position yesterday. The GM spot has been vacant for nearly twenty days now, since Theo Epstein’s departure. Despite rumors of Theo regretting his decision not to […]

Well as it seems, the MLBPA and MLB have come to an agreement that congress accepted. The most dramatic changes from the old to new policy is that suspensions went from days to games and a third offence brings a lifetime ban. Be fore a first offence would send you home for 10 days. Now […]

Granted I don’t want to get stuck with a pitiful General Manager of the club. But it’s now been 15 days since Theo’s departure. OVer 2 weeks have gone by and the club has been without an Admiral for the ship.

Ortiz did not get the MVP, and the Sox still have not netted a GM. […]

After Ortiz lost the vote to A-Rod for MVP of the American League, the Globe’s Dan Shaughnessy has the nerve to write that he likes A-Rod. You’d think after his ridiculous article that certainly had something to do with the Epstein departure, he’d just shut up. The guy seems to be moving himself into a […]

If this year’s award for AL MVP doesn’t indicate that sports writers make horrible judges, what does? A-Rod won the award for Most Valuable Player for the 2005 season in the American League. What a sham? As many have reported, he wasn’t even close to being the New York Yankees most valuable player, how could […]

Today’s the day we find out who the American League MVP is. The top two candidates are Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees, and our own David Ortiz from the Boston Red Sox.

You know the story already. DH vs. everyday player. Numbers vs. clutch hitting. Respectability and Accountability.

My vote is for Big Papi. We’ll […]

Rafeal Furcal wants $50 million and a 5 to 6 year deal. The rumors are that the Royals, Mets, Yankees and Sox might be interested in the speedy shortstop/second baseman/centerfielder. Furcal hit .278 with 12 home runs and 58 RBI’s last season, while stealing 46 bases. He’s versatile and can play many positions well. He’s […]

Well, something did happen at the GM conference this past week. As always, nothing is for certain until someone signs on the dotted line. But, NBC Sports is reporting that the Red Sox have made an offer to Johnny Damon, asking the lead-off centerfielder to return to the club for atleast a few more seasons.
