So we can only have so many nice things with the 2026 Red Sox, eh? Good news! The offense can actually produce runs! Bad news! Sonny Gray left the game in the third with right hamstring tightness and we had to almost empty out the pen before the series against the Yankees! Fun times. Can […]
Hope you had your coffee ready for this, the stupidest start time of the season. The Tigers had a very early game today because they have no off days this weekend so they needed time to get to Milwaukee. It’s also Boston Marathon day, which makes me wonder why they aren’t wearing their marathon-inspired City […]

Worcester: W, 4-2 (BOX SCORE) The Red Sox farm, unlike the Major League team, actually enjoyed solid pitching all the way around on Sunday. Worcester’s shutout performance in Nashville (Brewers AAA) was courtesy of Michael Sansone. The 26-year-old Connecticut native may well end up putting together some innings on the Major League squad in 26; […]
After the Red Sox finally got something resembling momentum going with back-to-back series victories against a very good Brewers team and a Cardinals team that has made anybody following MLB say “Hey they actually aren’t as bad as I thought they’d be,” they go out and lay eggs like that over the past week. That […]
The Detroit Tigers wrap up the weekend having taken two of three from the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. Friday night saw them fall in a 1-0 extra-inning affair, but they bounced back to take Saturday’s matchup, 4-1, and Sunday’s afternoon game, 6-2. As the late Billy Mays used to say, “But wait, there’s […]
MLB Trade Rumors | Charlie Wright: The Yankees made a minor trade on Sunday, trading infielder Braden Shewmake to the Astros for Wilmy Sanchez. Shewmake has appeared in the majors for the Braves and White Sox and was signed as a minor-league depth infielder. As for who the Yankees have picked up, Sanchez is a […]
Coming off the worst start of his career, Garrett Crochet surrendered five runs over five innings on Sunday. Is it time to worry? Yes, but also no. Crochet got off to a rocky start. After two quick outs, he gave up back to back doubles to open the scoring. I was driving during the top […]
In such a short period of time, dare I say that Noah Schultz has really, truly, already arrived? It almost seems too good to be true, for somebody who’s gotten plenty used to even the best White Sox prospect requiring some adjustment time in the majors. But the young condor-like lefty is is looking like […]
The third game of a wrap-around four-game series had a start time that was pushed back by three hours to accommodate some inclement weather moving through Boston. After the rains came and (occasionally) went, the Tigers won the game 6-2 while dodging raindrops, especially late in the game. Framber Valdez made his fifth start for […]
After getting absolutely annihilated in his previous start on Monday in Minnesota to the tune of 11 runs in just 1.2 innings, Garrett Crochet is set to retake the mound today and convince us all that everything will be fine as far as he and his health are concerned. Unfortunately, he won’t just be battling […]

“Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.” — Alexander Pope Red Sox Nation expected quite a bit from the 2026 season, so this funk we’re in feels particularly brutal. It’s a sad state of affairs when disappointment settles in, like a thick bank of fog, even before mid-April has rolled around. […]
Last Sunday after the Red Sox’s 9–3 win over the Cardinals, Trevor Story gave one of the more entertaining quotes about his new teammate Willson Contreras: “Just look at him. They’re very similar in stature. Real strong and he’s got that presence about him, that Bowser presence. He’s got the intensity. “I’ve never seen a […]
The Detroit Tigers evened up their four-game series against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on Saturday with a 4-1 win behind an ace performance by Tarik Skubal and his 10 strikeouts. The victory brought AJ Hinch’s squad back above the .500 mark and within a half game of the American Central Division lead, […]
One of the unfortunate side effects that we experience in this current era of prestige TV is that it’s all too easy to forget about a great show after it ends. I’m not talking about the Mad Men and Sopranos types of prestige TV shows, the ones that stick around long enough that they firmly […]
After a frustrating 1-0 extra innings loss in game one of this series, the Detroit Tigers sent their ace to the mound looking to even things up. Tarik Skubal was very good, the Tigers beat up on Brayan Bello to build an early lead despite squandering some chances, and the bullpen was nails. It was […]

Well, it was a good thing the Sox won last night, because it’s going to be a tough one this afternoon. The Sox take on Tarik Skubal, who received a big early boost in the Cy Young race when Garrett Crochet got rocked earlier this week. Of course, Skubal doesn’t really need the help, as […]

Who is he and where did he come from? He’s Jack Anderson. The Red Sox have had to go to the 40-man roster earlier in the season than they would have liked, to the tune of bringing four guys up from Worcester so far, three of whom have made their Major League debut (four total […]
Worcester, Game 1: L, 2-4 (BOX SCORE) Jake Bennett, who had his start derailed by a day due to rain, continues his hot start to 2026. He now has 16 1/3 innings with just one run earned, and continued that with three innings of shutout ball. However, neither that or the okay relief work was […]
The Detroit Tigers saw their six-game winning streak snapped on Friday night by the Boston Red Sox, 1-0, in a genuine pitcher’s duel that required an extra inning to determine the winner. Casey Mize looked great for the Motor City Kitties, but the offense could not break through against Ranger Suarez and Aroldis Chapman. The […]
