Red Sox get Rule 5 pick Jedixson Paez back from White Sox

Three days after getting 2024 Rule 5 Draft pick Angel Bastardo back from the Blue Jays, the Red Sox got 2025 Rule 5 Draft pick Jedixson Paez back from the White Sox on Saturday.

Padres 3, Red Sox 2: This lineup, man…

For the eighth game in a row to kick off the 2026 MLB season, the Boston Red Sox failed to score more than five runs. They are the only team in baseball that has yet to do so this season. Get used to this. The lineup isn’t going to be this anemic all season long […]

Nathaniel Lowe starts for Reds vs. Rangers in return to Texas

Nathaniel Lowe posted a 122 OPS+ in nearly 2600 PA for the Texas Rangers across four full seasons after coming over from the Tampa Bay Rays. In that time he was valued at 11.5 bWAR, won a Gold Glove, a World Series, and a Silver Slugger Award – the latter coming during a remarkable 2022 […]

Game 8: Padres at Red Sox – Winning streak??

A couple of weeks ago we didn’t even think he’d make the Opening Day Roster. Now we’re saying “thank god we’ve got Connelly Early going today.” Behind Early, Alex Cora is rolling out the same starting nine batting the same order as yesterday. If ain’t broke, yadda, yadda. In the other dugout, it’s a day-off […]

Red Sox Minor Lines: Kyson Witherspoon makes his 2026 debut

Worcester: Cancelled (Rain) Bob Osgood ended up with upwards of ten double headers that were the result of rain outs of games I was supposed to write about in 2025. When Thursday’s game was met with a storm in St. Paul, the uno reverse card was in play, but I hit Dan Secatore with the […]

When do you consider lineup changes?

Friday’s 10-1 blowout of the Rockies was the perfect salve for a lineup that was struggling. Granted, they were not facing a pitching staff that would be considered one of the better ones in the game, but it’s not as though they were facing monsters on the mound in Philadelphia. Several Phillies left town for […]

Don’t forget about Red Sox prospect Mikey Romero among the infield carousel

WORCESTER, Mass. – The Red Sox drafted a plethora of blue chip prospects over a four-year stretch, with Marcelo Mayer, Roman Anthony and Kyle Teel among others. But you may forget that Anthony wasn’t the first selection for Boston back in 2022. That would be Mikey Romero.  The rise of the “Big Three” kept the spotlight […]

Red Sox 5, Padres 2: Bats wake up in Opening Day victory

I personally wasn’t in Boston, but looking at it on TV, that was quintessential Red Sox Opening Day weather, eh? 50s and sunny, the white uniforms back on and a city wanting to kick this team in the backside. Well, they thankfully didn’t make this one too stressful on any of us as they rolled […]

Where will the Red Sox leadership come from?

Happy Home Opening Day, everybody. If you feel like approaching today as the true Opening Day, no one would blame you. After nearly 48 hours of mild rage, I’m ready to turn the page. A question for today: Who will step up to provide leadership for these 2026 Red Sox? Part of the issue with […]

Series Preview: Padres at Red Sox for Opening Day at Fenway

We made it to Opening Day. It was hard to get here, literally. A 1-5 record before setting foot in front of the Green Monster is not what Red Sox Nation waited all winter to see. Already the winnable games in Cincinnati look like missed opportunities compared to the series in Houston. But now the […]

What’s the best Red Sox batting order?

Through the first week of this new season, Alex Cora has already started to shuffle the lineup, swapping both personnel and positioning. It’s not entirely surprising—this team simply hasn’t found its footing and this is the easiest lever for Cora to pull. But the issue here isn’t just that the Red Sox aren’t hitting. It’s […]

Bernie’s Dugout Open Thread: 4/3-4/9

Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers are off to a hot start, as they lead the division at 5-1 heading into their first road trip of the season. They’ll visit the Royals this weekend before taking on Caleb Durbin and the Red Sox in Boston to open next week. Feel free to use this […]

Kyle Schwarber Is No Cheapskate

As Kyle Schwarber began to round the bases on Opening Day, the Rangers TV broadcasters griped that the moonshot that sent him on that short but joyous journey hadn’t quite been earned. A left-handed hitter, they said, can get “cheapies” by sending the ball over Citizens Bank Park’s friendly left-field fence, as Schwarber had. The […]

Red Sox Minor Lines: An improbable comeback for the WooSox

Worcester: W, 5-4 (BOX SCORE) While the Red Sox were losing to the Astros, the WooSox were in St. Paul for a 2:10 PM first pitch following Tuesday’s 19-3 rout of the Saints (Twins AAA). Jack Anderson fell into a 4-0 deficit in the third inning via a grand slam that put St. Paul’s win […]
