BoSox Blotter

While the Sox were tearing the National League up, I wasn’t blogging much. I was avoiding watching the first half of the first inning. Why? Because they were winning. Now? Well, I can watch the games again including the first inning and I can get back to blogging.

So since Shawn did his predictions, I’ll take […]

This is something that I like to do every year. Last year I did not fare well. Ozzie Guillen as MOY was my only correct pick. I was close on the NL CY Young. Dontrell Willis finished second. This year there are a lot more close races in my mind. Only one award at this […]

It is very nice to see that the Red Sox have the ‘young pen’ up. Delcarmen, Hansen, and Paps who has been there all season are expected to provide the missing pieces thus far in a far from dominating season. Jon Lester is in the starting rotation, and the others are, hopefully, going to sow […]

It was a shame how last night’s game ended. I had a feeling that it was going to come to an end like that; where the score will not reflect the reality of the competition.

Schilling was defining — it would appear he’s figured a different way of pitching aside from the blowout strikeout method that’s […]

Shortstop Orlando Cabrera has reached base safely in 38 consecutive games, the longest active streak in the majors.

It’s kind of pointless to re-iterate what nearly every other blog or sports news outlet is focusing on after last night’s Red Sox win over the Texas Rangers: Jonathon Papelbon’s blown save in the 8th and striking out the side in the 9th for the victory.

It’s probably also pointless to write about how dreadful the […]

Last night the Sox muscled a win away from the Toronto Blue Jays and avoiding being swept. Manny Rameriz and David Ortiz led the offensive assualt and bashed the club to a much needed 8-6 victory.

On the sour note, looks like Wily Mo Pena is out for several months as he needs surgery on his […]

Last night Beckett got battered, as seems to be the case this year with him and the Toronto Blue Jays. For a team that was looking as if it was loaded with pitchers in the beginning of Spring Training, dire needs have arisen.

Matt Clement has been useless. He’s been a bigger flop, in my opinion, […]

David Wells makes his much anticipated return to the Sox rotation tonight to face Scott Kasmir and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. It goes without saying that Kazmir has a very good history against the Sox, which means Wells will not only need to be himself and pitch well, he will most likely need a […]

It was a solid performance. Josh Beckett needed to throw over 100 pitches to get through 6 innings, but he didn’t allow a single run during that time.

It was a much needed performance by Beckett for the Sox coming off from losing 2 games to the Yankees at Fenway. The defense for the club was […]
