Things are a go for Daisuke Matsuzaka and Mike Cameron. Dice-K has been cleared to start against the Rockies on Thursday night at Coors Field in Colorado. Matsuzaka pitched a simulated game against Independent League players on Saturday afternoon at Fenway Park.  He threw 49 pitches without incident and it looks like his forearm issues [...]

Red Sox on Roll, Baby on Board

I must say, I usually don’t like to take this much time off from my blog, but my wife and I welcomed a baby girl on Monday, May 31st, so I have been pretty “out of it” the last 7 days. But now I am back and better than ever (despite the 3 hours sleep [...]

Injury Update — Mike Cameron, Jacoby Ellsbury & J.D. Drew

Mike Cameron and Jacoby Ellsbury are both accompanying the team on their upcoming 6-game road trip to Toronto and Baltimore.  But it doesn’t appear like either Cameron or Ellsbury will return to the lineup anytime soon.  Ellsbury’s slightly fractured ribs are healing, but he still cannot take a full swing with the baseball bat.  Cameron [...]

Now Red Sox Injuries Taking Their Toll

Bad pitching, bad hitting, 5-game losing streak.  What else can go wrong, you ask?  Well, how about Jacoby Ellsbury and Mike Cameron on the DL? Ellsbury is still dealing with a rib injury suffered in a collision last weekend in Kansas City.  He was placed on the disabled list today retroactive to April 12th.  So [...]

Josh Beckett Dominates Pirates with 5 Strong Innings

Josh Beckett had his best start of the spring in the Red Sox 6-4 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday.  Beckett fired 5 awesome innings, giving up just 1 ER on 3 hits and 1 walk.  Beckett struck out 9 Pirates batters!  WOW!  This is clearly a good sign for Beckett who had been [...]

Two Split Squad Losses for Red Sox on Monday

The Red Sox pounded out 17 runs and 28 hits in 2 split squad losses on Monday, but the pitching left a lot to be desired.  In the 13-8 loss to the Cardinals, a 7-run 8th inning off of Ramon Ramirez and T.J. Large doomed the Sox.  Ramirez has been downright awful this year – [...]

Pitchers Struggle, Bats Hot in 10-7 Red Sox Loss to Astros

Red Sox pitchers struggled mightily in Sunday’s 10-7 loss to the Houston Astros.  Jon Lester was just “so-so” in his start, although he did manage to go 5 1/3 innings and strike out 7 Astros batters.  On the down side, he gave up 3 ER on 5 hits. Jonathan Papelbon had his worst outing of [...]

Beckett Returns, But Gets Ruoghed up by Pirates

The good news is that Josh Beckett returned to live game action after dealing with an undisclosed illness.  The bad news – the Pirates really took it to the Red Sox ace, touching him for 4 earned runs on 6 hits and 2 walks (including 1 home run) over 3 1/3 innings.  Beckett had been [...]

Mike Cameron – Red Sox Take it slow with Minor Groin Injury

Mike Cameron is dealing with a minor groin injury and the Red Sox took extra precaution with their 2010 starting center fielder over the weekend.  Although the injury is not considered serious, the Red Sox do not expect that Cameron will be in the lineup when they open spring training game action against Northeastern and [...]

Mike Cameron & Adrian Beltre Geared up for Spring Training 2010

Adrian Beltre and Mike Cameron are finally getting a glimpse of what it’s like to be an integral part of Red Sox Nation.  Each player is extremely excited to be in Fort Myers and to start getting things going for the 2010 MLB schedule. Beltre has this to say about reporting to camp: “I’m pretty [...]
