With Trevor Story’s offseason decision still to be made, the Red Sox should at least be looking at the market to see how they could replace him if he ends up elsewhere. Although there have been reports that Story feels a sense of loyalty to Boston after a comeback campaign in 2025 and three tough […]

Alright, this is getting a little out of hand. Let’s acknowledge the biggest elephant in the room, which were the comments made by Dave Dombrowski about Bryce Harper at his end of season press conference. The comments “hurt” Harper. Those comments that were made were as follows: “Of course, he’s still a quality player,” Dombrowski […]

Last year, the Red Sox first free agent signing of the offseason was a journeyman reliever who had put up an ERA+ of 79 for the Cincinnati Reds the season before. The fanbase wasn’t pleased, but Justin Wilson ended up being one of the most reliable arms in the 2025 bullpen. This year, the Sox […]

Before the Boston Red Sox won the 2004 World Series, they had a long and pretty amazing history of futility known as the curse, or, more fully, the Curse of the Bambino, so-called because the Red Sox traded Babe Ruth to New York in 1919 (it was formally announced shortly after New Year’s Day). The […]

2025 In A Discarded-On-The-Dugout-Floor Nutshell Sheer dominance just about every step of the way. An ace the Red Sox should be excited to have locked up for years to come.

I knew this would be the way it would go. Bo is available to pinch hit or come into the game at some point, but he’s on the bench to start. I’m sure he’ll start Game Three in LA. John said Bo felt good after the game and he expects him to be able to […]

Varitek will return to Alex Cora’s coaching staff in 2026, in the same position of game-planning coordinator and run-prevention coach (go ahead and feel free to roll your eyes at that one). Next year will mark Tek’s 30th season with the Red […]

You’re probably familiar with this story, but just in case it’s foreign, let’s review: About two decades ago, the Red Sox found themselves in a seemingly impossible position during the mid stages of what turned out to be a classic ALCS.

Here’s something you might not be aware of: the Red Sox absolutely own the third base Silver Slugger award. Of the 45 trophies given out at that position, 11 of them have gone to Red Sox third baseman. This has been thanks mostly to Wade Boggs, who won the award six times with the Sox. […]

2025 In A Discarded-On-The-Dugout-Floor Nutshell Payton Tolle, a towering lefty who started his first professional season in High-A Greenville a few months ago, tore through the minor league system and showed a burst of promise before his lack of command on his secondary pitches got the best of him. He’s still not yet 23 and […]

After a breakout season in which he established himself as not only a big leaguer, but also a potential franchise catcher and an All-Star, one more honor lies in store for Hunter Goodman. Goodman was named a finalist for the National League Silver Slugger Award among catchers for the 2025 season. The other finalists are […]

“Guys, you’re still trying to replace Giambi. I told you, we can’t do it. We can’t do it. Now, what we might be able to do is re-create him; recreate him in the aggregate.” If you don’t immediately recognize those words from Moneyball , you’ve got some homework to do this weekend. But regardless of whether or not you’ve read the book/seen the movie, that may have sounded oddly familiar to you. And that’s because Jed Hoyer did his best Brad Pit t Billy Beane impression at his end-of-season...

If you were at all surprised about Alex Bregman’s decision to opt-out, then that probably means you haven’t been paying much attention to the way Scott Boras has been doing business lately. Bregman’s decision to sign a short-term, option-laden contract last year, and then to opt out and test free agency again this year, followed […]

They say you learn more from losses than you do wins, or something like that. 29 of 30 teams end the season without hoisting a trophy, and therefore walk away more educated than the World Series Champion. While I can’t help Jarren Duran learn to catch better or Connor Wong to hit home runs, I […]

Happy Tuesday, Red Sox Nation! Last night, the Blue Jays defeated the Mariners to set up a World Series matchup with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Unfortunately, the series doesn’t start until Friday, so we’ve got three days with no baseball until the Fall Classic kicks off. Personally, I’ll be rooting for everyone to have a […]
