A Final Word on Wells

I’ve had an odd relationship with David Wells over the last couple of years - one that’s now come to an end with his trade to the Padres (see below). I just wanted to take a moment and give some respect to this guy, who takes a lot of shit (some of it deserved) […]

Next Year

With the Sox reeling from injuries, health scares, and poor performance - and dropping like a stone in the AL East - today’s news that David Wells has been DFA’d and traded to the San Diego Padres for AAA catching prospect George Kottoras is actually a welcome development. With that move, the Sox have […]

Pedroia to Boston

With Alex Gonzalez headed to the disabled list, the Providence Journal is reporting that Dustin Pedroia will be called up to Boston to make his Major League Debut on the upcoming road trip. After a very very tough weekend of baseball, it’s nice to have something to look forward to: Sox fans have been […]

Behind Enemy Lines

Hinske. Really.

The Red Sox are, apparently, on the verge of completing a deal that would send a borderline prospect - maybe an Alvarez or Hottovy type - to the Toronto Blue Jays for 1B/3B/OF Eric Hinske. It’s an odd deal on the surface, given the Sox’ needs and the presence of capable players at all […]

The Functionality of The Ball in Baseball

“In most sports the ball, or object, is put in play by the offensive team; in baseball the defensive team puts the ball in play, and only the defense is allowed to touch the ball. In fact, in baseball if an offensive player touches the ball intentionally, he’s out; sometimes unintentionally, he’s out… in football,basketball, […]

The Light at the End of the Tunnel

No, not for the Sox. I’m actually talking about myself.

Friday the 18th of August will be my last day at my current job. About a month and a half ago - which, as you’ll notice, coincides pretty nicely with the total demise of this website - I was informed that my job would […]

Javy Lopez’s: 2

Word is filtering out now that the Red Sox have acquired Baltimore Catcher Javy Lopez in exchange for a minor leaguer and cash; the going assumption seems to be Abe Alvarez and $1.3 mil off the $2.7 million left on his 2006 contract. If that’s the deal, ‘m tentatively okay with it; Lopez hasn’t […]
