BoSox Blotter

Rumor has it that Big Papi is going to pulling in some big dough. One of Ortiz’s family members told ESPN Desportes that the most clutch hitting in Red Sox history is close to signing a 50 million 4 year deal. Of course Papi has denied this and not much is coming from Theo.

This […]

Although he’s renting his recently purchased home outside of Boston to David Wells, he didn’t give the Sox any other breaks during his appearance against the team as he want 7 shut-out innings while fanning 9.

Bronson Arroyo, returning as a Red yesterday, submitted the most impressive performance of the spring by an opposing pitcher. He […]

It’s just around the corner, the first day of the season. The Royals have grabbed Tony Graffinino off waivers and the Sox have sent Craig Hansen and Manny Delcarmen down to the minors. Also headed to Pawtucket are Dustan Mohr, Enrique Wilson, Willie Harris, Ken Huckaby, Trent Durrington, Dustin Pedroia, and Mike Holtz — if […]

We all knew it. We knew what we were getting. We, also, probably knew we were overpaying for him too. Yesterday’s mayhem, as childish as it was, was inevitable… eventually. Julian Tavarez brings a reputation with him that puts Maple Leaf Ty Dome to shame. This guy is more than a loose canon, he’s more […]

Ok, by now most all of us have heard of the drama from yesterday’s Grape Fruit game between the Sox and the Phillies, or should I say Josh Beckett and Ryan Howard. If you haven’t, read up on it.

I’m glad to see the intensity, and the out, from the instance. Oh, and glad to see […]

Just reported, the Red Sox have picked up another first baseman, Hee-Seop Choi. Choi has played with the Cubs, Marlins and Dodgers in his major leagure career. He also played for South Korea in the WBC.

Choi is a .240 career hitter with 40 HRs, 120 RBIs and just below .350 OBP in 360+ major league […]

If this is true and the Red Sox actually shipped Arroyo to Cincinnati, I’d have to say that’s the stupidest move they’ve made all season. Arroyo isn’t just affordable, he’s incredibly versatile. Dealing him to get a platoon outfielder who strikes out just as much as Bellhorn is not the smartest move. Theo is definitely […]

Just read on Boston.com that the Red Sox signed Juan Gonzalez to a minor league deal. An interesting move, and a smart one. It’ll be interesting to see how far Juan must progress before getting a shot at the MLB level.

Hey, wouldn’t it be nice to have a 4th outfielder hitting .325 with 30+ homers […]

Reports are indicating the Terry Francona has received a two year contract extension; meaning he’s here through 2008. I know many people have issues with Francona. Personally, I think he’s quite a capable manager. Yes, he’s had quite a selection of ballplayers, but how often do we say that about teams that don’t even make […]

Hmm… just getting back to town and catching up on all the news while I was out. This bit of information peeked my interest first and foremost. Without going into too much detail about David Wells now wanting to stay in Boston, I think it’s GREAT! I think if he can be the pitcher he […]
