Tag Archives: Boston Red Sox

Youk loses his mind and the Sox fall out of a playoff spot for the first time in months.

With all the trades and Ortiz's name now on “The List,” it was an eventful week in Boston.

The Sox offensive slump continues but a new bat is in town. Plus, Smoltz struggles to find his way.

This past week, the Sox got healthier but did not keep up its winning ways.

The Red Sox head into the break on a high note. Plus, inside Boston's successful first half of '09.

The veteran knuckleballer is going to St. Louis after all, and the Sox have survived a bullpen meltdown, at least for now.

Smoltz has mixed results in his BoSox debut, while Beckett and Ortiz are locked in and Mike Lowell's hip locks up.

One pitcher is out, another is coming in, and in the meantime all the Sox can do lately is win.

In this debut article for my Bo-Sox column "Dead Red," it's all about pitching. Red Sox starting pitching, that is.

A marvelous book of baseball and friendship...
