Is there a cancer in Red Sox Spring Training Camp in Fort Myers this season? Not quite, but Coco Crisp expressed a desire to be traded if he couldn’t play every day with the Red Sox this season which isn’t likely given the emergence of Jacoby Ellsbury behind him.
“I want to play everyday,” Crisp […]
Yesterday I stumbled upon Curt Schilling on Facebook and impressed by his use of the Internet to further his support of his charitable organizations, I happily friended “Curtis” after double checking what I could (email address, websites, birthplace) to see if it was really him or a Fake Curt Schilling.
I was friended back and after […]
Coming into this week, two of the three major acquisitions made by the Red Sox this offseason were turning in performances that were more major disappointment than major impact.

While Lenny DiNardo may be saying all the right […]
Steve Lombardi over at WasWatching.com thinks 9.5 games at this point in the season is enough to count the Yankees out of the A.L. East and, jinxes be damned, I think it’s pretty sound logic as well.
Steve lays down scenarios where the Yankees win six of nine and then again with them winning eight of […]
We’ve been down this road before, Alex Rodriguez using questionable judgment on the baseball field when it comes to straddling the fine line of being competitive and being “dirty”. Arod may never live down “the slap” and following countless photoshopped handbags and hamburger helper hands as a result of his questionable judgment during the […]
The day wasn’t going the Red Sox way, but at least a handful of families spending Mother’s Day 2007 at Fenway Park had a trot around the diamond with their little ones in store after the game to look forward to. Coming into the game, fans were expecting to see the Red Sox […]
The Red Sox are on a roll, and that roll got even more pronounced over the past three days in Toronto where they handed the Blue Jays their third straight sweep running the Sox win streak to five and the Jays losing streak to nine. At 23-10, the Red Sox best start since 2002, […]
