Talking with Red Sox draft pick Brett Lanman

Pitching development has been the Red Sox’s bread and butter under Craig Breslow. Since Breslow took over, the organization has invested heavily in the pitching pipeline.

Curtis Mead could join the list of Red Sox one-game wonders

With Curtis Mead hitting the IL with a potentially season-ending broken wrist, he’s joining a small group of hitters who played only a single game for the Boston Red Sox.

Five days remain between now and the MLB Trade Deadline. The action has yet to pick up beyond the Red Sox trading a starter to the Nationals for an infielder who promptly got his wrist broken by a pitch in his Boston debut. That sounds about right. Sooner or later, we’ll really get going though, […]

MLB already has plenty of beloved figures, including the Phillie Phanatic, Mr. Met, Wally the Green Monster, and Fredbird.
