Should We Be Worried? Red Sox Lose Again 15-7 to Marlins – Fenway Park Fort Myers FL 3/24/11

This is getting old.  I know it is only spring training, but I really hope the Red Sox put together a little winning streak during this final week leading up to the regular season opener next Friday in Texas. The Marlins crushed the Red Sox 15-7 yesterday, out-hitting the squad 20-10.  Clay Buchholz took the [...]

Scutaro Healthy & Ready For Big 2011 — Fenway Park 2/19/11

Look out AL East – not that Marcoo Scutaro is healthy, he is ready to do some damage.  Somehow, some way, Marco Scutaro racked up a career high 632 at-bats despite playing with several injuries in 2010 — a pinched nerve in his neck, a sore left elbow and a right rotator cuff issue.  Scutaro [...]

Dustin Pedroia Confident Injuries Behind Him – Fenway Park 2/12/11

Dustin Pedroia is confident that his latest injuries issues are behind him for good.  5 1/2 months after a fractured left foot sidelined him for a good chunk of 2010, Pedroia ensures everyone that there won’t be anymore setbacks despite the fact that he still wears a protective boot around the left foot for extra [...]

Marco Scutaro Health Update — Fenway Park 2/4/11

Marco Scutaro has spent the winter in his native Venezuela recovering from a pinched neck nerve and strained right rotator cuff that hampered his play in 2010.  Scutaro gutted it out during the grueling 2010 MLB season, but towards the end of the season, he really struggled with his play because of the injury. Scutaro’s [...]

Jose Iglesias Shortstop of the Future; Marco Scutaro/Jed Lowrie Rule the Present — Fenway Park 1/25/11

The Red Sox must be patient with shortstop of the future – Jose Iglesias.  Iglesias was hampered with injuries during much of the 2010 season.  Because of that, Iglesias played in only 70 games.  It is unlikely that the Red Sox will call up Iglesias during the course of the 2011 MLB schedule.  Maybe when [...]

Jed Lowrie Finishes 2010 MLB Season on Positive Streak…

Jed Lowrie crushed 2 home runs to pace the offense in the Red Sox final win of the season over the New York Yankees (8-4).  Lowrie missed a good chunk of the beginning of the season because of mononucleosis and he finally put the wrist injuries that plagued him during the 2009 MLB season behind [...]

Beckett, Offense Misfire against O’s @ Camden Yards — Red Sox 2, Orioles 5 – 8/31/10

Josh Beckett put the Red Sox in an early 3-0 hole after 3 innings, and the Red Sox could never recover against young O’s lefty Brian Matusz.  Beckett ended up yielding those lone 3 runs through his 7 inning outing, but it wasn’t the shutdown performance that the club was looking for. Playoff Watch – [...]

Red Sox on the Prowl as Lester Dominates Rays in Tampa — Red Sox 3, Rays 1 – 8/27/10 Tropicana Field

Jon Lester picked up his 14th win of the season with a dominating 3-1 win over the Rays in Tampa on Friday night.  Lester pitched 7 innings of 1 run ball (the run was unearned because of Marco Scutaro’s error), scattering 2 hits and 5 walks during the outing.  He racked up 10 K’s and [...]

Is It the Beginning of the End? 2 Bad Losses in a Row Leave Red Sox Bewildered — Red Sox 8, Rangers 9 – 11 Innings – 8/13/10

It looked like the Red Sox had put Thursday’s horrific 9th inning loss behind them, as they staked ace Josh Beckett to an early 8-2 lead after 3 1/2 innings.  But then the wheels came off and the Red Sox ended up losing 10-9 in 11 innings.  Is this the beginning of the end for [...]

Getting the Job Done – A Win is a Win in a Tight Playoff Race – Red Sox 7, Blue Jays 5 – 8/10/10

It was a BIG win for the Red Sox – 7-5 over the Blue Jays – in order to keep the momentum going from Monday’s 2-1 nail-biter over the Yankees in the Bronx. The Good — The Red Sox Offense – 11 hits, 2 walks and 7 runs all scored by a different player.  Not [...]
