This is it? This is the best “Manny being Manny” event, the latest “Manny moment,” the biggest “controversy” the Boston media can come up with? …
This morning on EEI, Dennis and Callahan were interviewing Curt, asking him about his blog, and taking the typical condescending tone that any of these …
The Red Sox have reportedly been scouting Houston’s Brad Lidge. But that can’t be possible, because Astros skipper Phil Garner tells The Buzz that Lidge …
I have a feeling — and it’s a pretty good one — that when the Sox play Baltimore, whether it’s Grapefruit or regular season, they …
Hey, I know it’s only spring training, but where are the bats? Where’s the potent line-up? Kevin Youkilis and J.D. Drew are the only regulars …
Each year ’round this time for as long as we’ve been doing this silly-ass blog, I’ve posted a St. Patty’s Day playlist. I’m always down …
Gotta come clean: Part of the joy of watching Red Sox baseball is watching Teets wangle back and forth on the bench, chewing that unholy …
During one of my late-night YouTube trolling sessions (not seeking soft-core porn, mind you, but, sadly, old Electric Company clips from the late 70s), I …
Toronto beat the Red Sox 1-0 yesterday. Yawn. Many of the regulars didn’t play for Boston, and the game was basically the A.J. Burnett show. …

Who is this guy? You gotta love when you go the sportsline.com to look up a player, and that’s the “picture” you find. Rogers was …
