Red Sox News & Links: What’s next after the Curtis Mead trade?

Baseball is a cruel business. Tsung-Che Cheng will always be remembered as one of the spark plugs of the Sox’ historic 15-game win streak. Cheng appeared in 9 of the 15 wins and started 8 of them, putting up an OBP of .407 during the stretch and stabilizing the middle infield defense. But with the […]

How much of this Red Sox West Coast trip will you actually watch?

OTM’s Matt Gross, who’s always keyed in to the ways the Red Sox are or are not resonating with the wider New England populace, brought up a good point about some bad scheduling luck the resurgent Sox ran into: In sum, this West Coast road trip is horribly timed if one thing you care about […]

Six weeks of “The Cole Carrigg Effect”

It’s been just over six weeks since Cole Carrigg (No. 4 PuRP) made his Major League debut. He has played in 39 games, and the “Cole Carrigg Effect” is in full swing. Carrigg has been known to play “with his hair on fire” and hasn’t shown many signs of slowing down in the big leagues […]

Today in White Sox History: July 27

1951 Among many injustices betraying a pro-Yankees slant in Major League Baseball over the years, this was egregious as they come. It was the start of a four-game series at Yankee Stadium, with Chicago trailing New York and Boston by just 3 1⁄2 games in the standing. The White Sox trailed the Yankees, 3-2, when […]

Astros Notes: Outfielders, Payroll, Red Sox, Hennigan

Today’s 12-3 loss to the White Sox ended the Astros’ five-game winning streak with a thud, but the win streak at least helped reverse some of the damage done by Houston’s 1-6 record in its previous seven games.  The Astros remain under .500 at 52-55, but with a 32-24 mark over their last 56 contests.

Jays Lose To Red Sox

Blue Jays 1 Red Sox 6 If the Jays aren’t going to put an effort into the game, I’m not going to effort into the headline. That was far less fun than yesterday. Kevin Gausman was pretty good, really. Some weak contact that fell in, but not much hit hard. He went 6 innings allowing […]

A Look Back at James Click’s 2021 Trade Deadline

James Click awoke on July 27, 2021, with a serious problem on his hands. The Astros were 61-40, one game behind the Red Sox for the American League’s best record. They had the league’s best offense and the American League’s best rotation. The bullpen, however, could best be described as shaky. The night before, Click […]

Red Sox Pitching And Small Ball Secures Series Victory Over Blue Jays

The Red Sox are in the middle of a difficult stretch of their schedule. Without even considering the opponent, they’re currently playing ten games in ten days.

The defensive fit was more of an open question, as Mead has mostly played at the infield corners in 2026. […]

Blue Jays @ Red Sox Game Thread

A series win would be nice. I wonder if Dylan Cease would be winning to start this one too? Kevin Gausman gets to try to build some trade value. He’s had a rough last few starts, with a 6.56 ERA in his last 9 starts. Today’s lineups. Weirdly, Nathan Lukes is leading off against the […]

This week was a challenging Reacts poll for South Side Sox readers, in that it asked you to choose a player from the rookie corps you’d be most comfortable with dealing away. Over at The Feed, where the voting is now hosted, there was more than one comment akin to “no one” — with support […]
