What should have been an uplifting 3-game sweep in Toronto turned into a disastrous late-inning loss that sent shockwaves throughout the Red Sox organization.  After the Red Sox gave up 4 runs in the bottom of the 9th to allow the Blue Jays to win 6-5, questions abound.  Has Manager Terry Francona lost his touch?  [...]

The sweep was not meant to be – ah what could have been…
Red Sox 10, Blue Jays 1 — 8/11/10 – Clay Buchholz rose to the occasion with another electric start – 8 innings, 1 run (unearned) on 5 hits and 2 walks.  He made an efficient 109 pitches and never gave the Blue Jays [...]

It’s not do-or-die, but if the Red Sox do not have a successful 10-game homestand at Fenway Park, they could have a very tough time making the 2010 playoffs.  The Red Sox just dropped 3 straight to the lowly Orioles in Baltimore over the weekend.  They are 3 games under .500 at 11-14, and they [...]

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 [...]

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 he [...]

Look out Red Sox fans, Daisuke Matsuzaka is looking pretty nasty these days.  Dice-K tossed 6 shutout innings for Triple-A Pawtucket on Thursday night, overwhelming the Buffalo Bison with some nasty pitches.  He gave up 3 hits and 1 walk during his stint.  He also had 3 K’s.  57 of his 86 pitches were for [...]

The Red Sox offense has left a lot to be desired after their 9-run outburst in the season opener against the Yankees.  Since then, the Red Sox lost the final 2 games of the Yankees series by the score of 6-4 & 3-1, and they have failed to come through with the clutch hit when [...]

Pitching deserted the Red Sox in their 9-9 tie with the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday.
Young prospect Casey Kelly struggled in his 3 innings – 2 ER on 4 hits and 2 walks, with 4 K’s.
Ramon Ramirez gave up 5 more hits and 2 more hits in his 2 innings of work.  Ramirez’s ERA is [...]

Manager Terry Francona gave Dustin Pedroia an extra day of rest on Friday to nurse his sore wrist.  Pedroia was back in the lineup against the Orioles on Saturday.  This was not done out of concern for Pedroia’s health — Francona just thought it was better to get the extra rest now rather than needing [...]

Tim Wakefield started, while Daisuke Matsuzaka tossed 2 innings, as the Red Sox cruised to a 6-4 win over the Florida Marlins.  Tim Wakefield continued to stretch out his arm well this spring – giving up 3 ER on 6 hits and 2 walks over 6 innings.  He added 5 K’s.  He threw 5 scoreless [...]
