Cade Cavalli pitched brilliantly tonight, striking out 13 Red Sox hitters while only allowing one hit and no walks over seven superb innings. Unfortunately, that’s not what I’ll remember most about his unwanted presence at Fenway. Instead, it will be this comment he shouted at Willson Contreras after striking him out in the bottom of […]
The Red Sox and Athletics agreed to a trade sending infielder Brett Harris to Boston, reports Chris Cotillo of MassLive. The A’s designated him for assignment over the weekend when they acquired reliever Hayden Juenger from the Blue Jays. Minor league righty Ben Hansen will go back to the A’s in return, reports Andrew Parker of […]
Boston Red Sox first baseman Willson Contreras spoke with reporters after being ejected in the bottom of the fourth inning following an altercation with Washington Nationals starting pitcher Cade Cavalli during the Nats' 8-1 win on Tuesday.
The Red Sox are designating veteran reliever Tommy Kahnle for assignment, reports Chris Cotillo of MassLive. Cotillo was also first to report that Boston will recall lefty Alec Gamboa from Triple-A Worcester tomorrow. There’ll probably be more moves coming. Starter Connelly Early exited after four innings tonight with discomfort at the back of his elbow. Interim manager Chad […]
This was definitely more interesting than your average Tuesday night game between teams from different leagues. Things got chippy and heated at Fenway Park. Through all of the chaos, Cade Cavalli delivered one of the most dominant starts you will ever see. He struck out 13, walked nobody, allowed one hit and got an insane […]
Viewership is in for the first New York Yankees-Boston Red Sox game on Sunday Night Baseball this season, and it is marking a 15-year high for the Sunday-night series. From the bottom of the fourth inning, when the game was joined in progress by NBC, the game averaged 4.0 million viewers on NBC and Peacock.…
The news you never want to hear about a young, blossoming pitcher has struck Connelly Early, who left tonight’s start against the Nationals after four shutout innings. Here’s Chris Cotillo with the post: Good updates almost never follow a pitcher leaving a start with “elbow discomfort,” and given the way Red Sox injury news almost […]
Boston Red Sox first baseman Willson Contereas was ejected — in his second straight game — after charging the mound against Washington Nationals ace Cade Cavalli.
Boston Red Sox first baseman Willson Contreras was ejected for the second straight game.
The Nats got into a hole against a hot Red Sox team yesterday and were unable to come back. Today, they will look to find a foothold in this series. It will be a battle between two exciting young pitchers in Cade Cavalli and Connelly Early. While Luis Garcia Jr. got to face a lefty […]
The Red Sox have a couple of streaks on the line tonight as they’ve won five games in a row and are also riding a string of 12 consecutive quality starts from their starters. Extending each will be tricky business though because the Nationals lead all of baseball in both runs scored and RBI. Even […]
Having crossed the midpoint of their season last week, the Chicago White Sox are looking like legitimate contenders rather than early-season flukes. The White S
In last week’s fan survey, Brady asked which of these three Giants were most likely to be moved by this year’s August 3rd trade deadline: Rafael Devers, Matt Chapman, or Willy Adames? This was based on Buster Posey’s comments that the entire roster, save Logan Webb, could be had in trade. As Brady pointed out, […]
Players and owners are the outset of contentious labor negotiations that will revolve around the financial inequities between teams. There is no doubt that teams with enormous market resources have an advantage – the high-spending Dodgers have the best record in baseball. But it is also interesting that in the backdrop of these talks, the […]
“It’s not easy just to show up and play with everything that’s going on in my country.” Willson Contreras didn’t mince words following the Boston Red Sox’ victory over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday, as shared by Tim Healey of The Boston Globe. It’s immensely difficult to operate under these circumstances, just as it is […]
Ryan Sherriff was active in baseball as recently as a year ago, pitching professionally in Mexico. The five-year MLB veteran, whose last major league appearance came with the Boston Red Sox in 2023, was on a mound. But his days…
Life comes at you fast. The Red Sox, in the midst of a five-game win streak, remain deep under .500. And in a world in which the owners hadn’t spent the last 20 years devaluing the regular season in a blatant attempt to increase postseason revenue and justify slashing payroll, a team in the Red […]

Good morning, Red Sox nation. Last night, Willson Contreras was ejected seemingly for tapping his helmet. I’m sure the Over The Monster readership base is full of respectful men and women, but last night showed me that umpires answer to no one, and you can get ejected for any reason. So, have you ever been […]
Jake Bennett debuted earlier than expected in 2026 thanks to injuries and poor performances. In his two starts in early May, he was underwhelming, but solid. He struck out just four of 42 hitters faced, allowing five earned runs over 10.1 innings while picking up his first career win and loss. He was sent back […]
