No Pitching, No Hit Streak and Everything Sucks
Last night was the type of night we had in mind when we signed David Price. Coming off two miserable losses in Baltimore. Dropping sole …

Apparently not content to let Clay Buchholz and Joe Kelly shit on our dreams individually, the stars (and Red Sox management) aligned to have both …
As if we needed more proof that there’s a strong 2013 vibe coming off this Red Sox team, tonight’s trouncing of the Orioles offered a …
In the first game of what I’ve boldly and drunkenly described as the most important series of the season thus far, the Red Sox drew …
We’ve just hit Memorial Day weekend, so it’s difficult to sit here and say that this four game set in Baltimore is gonna make or …
I don’t wanna talk about Craig Kimbrel or any of our relievers. The only takeaways I have interest in are as follows: 1. David Ortiz …
In the wake of Thursday night’s loss, I predicted a phantom DL stint for Clay Buchholz. Turns out, I was wrong. The Sox announced earlier …
Yes, I should have typed a game recap last night. But I was too damn tired after watching Clay stumble through yet another start, blowing …
Alright, I’m probably getting ahead of myself. But every night this Red Sox team pulls something out of its collective ass that gets me thinking …
For more than a decade, whenever hope seemed lost or we needed some kind of magic at the zero hour, David Ortiz has been the …
I’m sorry if I just jinxed him with that headline, but I am embracing JBJ mania with both hands. After two seasons in the cellar …
You heard it here, folks. On this Brookline Ave. garbage can. Rusney Castillo is our future. And it’s the garbage can right across from the …
Full disclosure: for much of last year, I wanted Hanley Ramirez gone. Thought he was nothing more than an overpaid distraction who would never give …
Nuff said. I just hope Ms. Austin’s bosses at NESN gave her a dry-cleaning stipend. Nonetheless, Guerin was certainly a good sport about it. I'm …
Technically, my math may be off. I’m sure he’s actually saved the day a million times. But regardless of the final count, today we got …
At what point is it too much? At what point is it just so embarrassing for opposing teams to get their asses whipped by the …
Alright, that headline is utter nonsense. Jackie didn’t knock in 2,000 runs over this three-game set with the A’s. He knocked in 13. But, man, …
Here’s the thing. With Papi out of the line-up last night and someone named Sean O’Sullivan on the hill, I figured that even against the …
In baseball, there is nothing more infuriating than an umpire’s shitty call costing your team the game. If the Red Sox have to take a …
For some time now, I’ve suspected Rick Porcello of being something of a double agent. Someone who secretly hates the Boston Red Sox and has …
Clay Buchholz serving up a grand slam and Roenis Elias coming out for the ninth inning of Saturday’s game notwithstanding, the scariest moment thus far …
I don’t know why I found Hanley Ramirez stumbling into this Ryan Hanigan post-game interview so amusing. But I did. So here you go.
One of the coolest new visuals to spring up on the Fenway skyline is a billboard of Xander Bogaerts which portrays X firin’ off a …
Christian Vazquez made his much-reheralded return to the bigs last night, and wasted no time reminding opposing players that there’s a new sheriff in town. …
At the risk of sounding petty, I really didn’t care how the Red Sox won tonight’s game. I just wanted to see the Orioles’ winning …
If the Red Sox have gotten anything out of their $95 million investment in Pablo Sandoval — a baffling move in any realm outside of …
I’m old enough to remember back when Big Lee Smith gave up a game-winning home run in his Red Sox debut back in 1988, so …
On my way in to the game today, so I will shamelessly re-post this entry from a couple years back. Because it all still matters. …
God knows it’s not easy being Pablo Sandoval these days. Poor guy got lambasted for showing up at camp ridiculously out of shape, all but …
Apparently determined to keep our “after Price, we’re rolling dice” mantra alive, Joe Kelly turned in a performance last night against the Jays that was …
In the afterglow of David Price’s masterful performance on opening day, it was easy to forget that outside of Price and closer Craig Kimbrel, our …
With his final season upon us, it wasn’t outrageous to think that David Ortiz would become a one-man quote machine for the bulk of 2016. …
Back in 2001, when Red Sox ownership dropped a ton of money on free agent Manny Ramirez, more than a few eyebrows were raised. But …
