Red Sox Injury Update – Dustin Pedroia, Victor Martinez, Clay Buchholz – 6/29/10

While it won’t be easy for the Red Sox to deal with the latest injuries suffered over the weekend, it could have been worse.

Dice-K Dominates Blue Jays in 6-1 Win; Red Sox Go for Sweep in Matinee Affair

Daisuke Matsuazaka showed signs of his dominating 2008 form in Tuesday night’s 6-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays at Fenway Park.  Dice-K tossed 7 stellar innings, giving up just 1 ER on 3 hits.  Most importantly, he didn’t walk any batters – his achiles heal – and he struck out 9.  If Matsuzaka can [...]

A Weekend Sweep to Forget Against O’s in Baltimore

Red Sox-Rays Suspended 1-1 Tie on Friday Night

The Red Sox and Rays had their Friday night game suspended after 8 and one-half innings of play.  A steady down pour forced the umpiring crew to call the game.  The game will be finished before the start of tonight’s game at Fenway Park.  More rain in the forecast has thrown that into question as [...]

We’ll Take 3-3 Start after Inconsistent Week

Guess we’ll take the 3-3 Red Sox start after an inconsistent week against the Yankees and Royals.  After the Red Sox bullpen blew the game on Friday night, it was big for the Red Sox to rebound with 2 wins on Saturday and Sunday.  And the bats finally came alive!
Josh Beckett rebounded after a shaky [...]

Victor Martinez & Jason Varitek Getting Comfortable with New Roles

Spring Training 2010 will bring a new role for Jason Varitek – no longer will he be the clubs primary catcher, as Victor Martinez will assume those duties.  Red Sox GM Theo Epstein & Co. acquired Martinez in a summer trading deadline move that helped bolster the Red Sox offense.  Martinez slid right into the [...]
