Latest news and updates about the Red Sox
Andrew Abbott will take the mound at Great American Ball Park and chuck the first pitch of the 2026 regular season for the Cincinnati Reds today. He’ll do so with budding Boston Red Sox superstar Roman Anthony in the box against him, as that’s who will lead off for Cincinnati’s opposition today. First pitch is […]
Welcome back to baseball that matters! It truly is the first day of spring when you can toss the red exhibition jerseys aside and play baseball for real. It’s Garrett Crochet ready to knit it up on the mound against an old friend in Tito and the Reds. Let’s play ball! ⚾️ First Pitch: 4:10pm […]
With the MLB season in full swing and the Boston Red Sox playing in their Opening Day against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday, it brings me back to a story that has always fascinated me. The time Larry Bird played in a college baseball game for Indiana State University in 1979. This game saw Bird […]
Opening Day in Cincinnati has finally arrived! After a long winter where we were left to ponder whether the Cincinnati Reds, who actually snuck into the playoffs for a minute in 2025, were going to take a giant leap forward in 2026 as their roster entered a fourth full year together post-rebuild. Today, we get […]
We’re back! For one afternoon. There there’s an off day. And then another game on Saturday. And at that point the baseball season will have successfully started like so many lawnmowers that sputter and make you pull the string a couple of times before they get going. (You probably don’t have to mow your lawn […]
As is tradition, we are pretty bad at this. That don’t mean we won’t keep trying until one of us gets it all correct! As we creep closer to opening day we get to display our optimism (some of us anyway) and predict how this upcoming season will unfold. As is customary, we split this […]
I suppose you could plaster the headline of this piece on pretty much any Opening Day post from any given year and you wouldn’t be completely wrong. But I can’t help but feel a little bit different about the 2026 Red Sox as the sun rises on a new season. This isn’t just the renewal […]
The 2026 MLB season kicked off on Wednesday night when the San Francisco Giants hosted the New York Yankees. Today the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Guardians play their first of 162 games of the season, as the Reds host the Boston Red Sox, and the Guardians travel to Seattle to battle the Mariners. The goal […]
Record and Finish 95-67, first place in the AL East: The time is now! It’s not a perfect Red Sox team, but it’s the best Red Sox team they’ve fielded so far this decade, and its time for them to start making serious waves in the American League. There’s enough talent here where the goal […]
’Twas brillig on Jersey Street The fans roared loud and rumbled,In Fenway’s yard where the faithful played all eager, loud, and jumbled; The Green Monster looms in left field deep, its shadow cold and wide,It calls to every driven sweep, then sends it screaming back inside. “Beware the Sox, my son!” they cried, “you’ve heard the echo of that sound—Beware […]
Well folks, we made it! The offseason is over and Red Sox baseball is about to begin anew this afternoon in Cincinnati. While we wait through the final few hours between the last Red Sox out of 2025 and the first pitch of 2026, let’s take a few moments to talk about our favorite Opening […]
The Red Sox have released another former top international signing in 23-year-old outfielder Juan Chacon, according to Hunter Noll of Beyond the Monster. Chacon originally signed with Boston for $900,000 in July 2019, receiving the largest bonus of the club’s 2019-2020 international free agent class.

Tanner Allen showed off the good stuff to get more fans for the Banana Ball league and hopefully increase his jersey sales. The post Banana Ball player goes shirtless to attract thirsty fans and sell jerseys appeared first on Outsports .
Welcome to the 2026 season of Major League Baseball! The Colorado Rockies won’t play until Friday, as MLB is doing a bit of a staggered start to the season. Roughly half of the league will start playing on Thursday, with the other handful picking up the action on Friday. However, there is just a single […]
The Boston Red Sox enter 2026 with the clear expectation of returning to the playoffs in consecutive seasons for the first time in eight years. The 2026 team stands on a foundation of exceptionally deep starting pitching, horses to stabilize the bullpen, and colossal pressure on Roman Anthony to carry a reshuffled offense. In fact, […]
Garrett Crochet came to the Boston Red Sox from the Chicago White Sox in a move that surely made the southsiders groan and throw everything within reach as far as possible. All Crochet did once settling in Beantown was post a 6.3 bWAR season that featured and AL-best 205.1 IP and MLB-best 255 Ks, efforts […]

Starting pitchers generally use spring training to build up their arm strength and tweak their repertoire. Hopefully that’s the case with Ranger Suarez, who allowed nine runs (eight earned) over 4 1/3 innings in the team’s final spring training game on Tuesday. He only built up to 69 pitches in the final start, which isn’t […]
I really wanted to use a pic of him in a Sox uni but come on now. | Getty Images Baseball is here, and we need to talk about the important stuff. The of-the-moment, Garrett Crochet Opening Day type of news? No. No season-long predictions either. If a season-long prediction must be made, let it be this, melding several voices with which I agree into a general “them”: “The Red Sox should be good enough, and if they stay healthy and Roman Anthony whips ass, they could win it all,” “they” s...
Morning everyone and happy Wednesday! After a long, cold winter, spring has finally arrived—the turn of the seasons always signaling the start of baseball. The weather is warming up, Little Leaguers are back on diamonds nationwide and at 8 p.m. ET, MLB players will join them! Two of the sport’s most historic franchises, the New […]
The Red Sox rotation is set. Garrett Crochet will start the season opener on Thursday in Cincinnati, Sonny Gray will then take the hill for game 2 on Saturday, and in what was a pretty significant announcement today, Connelly Early will get the ball for the series finale on Sunday. From there, Ranger Suarez, the […]

Cutter Coffey, LHP, Age 22 (DOB: 5/21/2004), Grade 35+, 2025: 30th Part of the return for Danny Jansen, the 2022 Red Sox second round pick got off to a tough start in the Jays organization, […]
Is it on TV? Sure is. First pitch is on NESN at 1:05. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? Ranger Suárez hasn’t pitched much this spring. And when he has, he hasn’t been all that good. It’s March, so no one should be freaking out, but it would definitely be nice to see […]
The 2026 Major League Baseball season will reportedly begin tomorrow, March 25th, when the San Francisco Giants take on the New York Yankees in the hallowed grounds of the Bronx. (We all know the season doesn’t really begin until the next day when the Cincinnati Reds play host to the Boston Red Sox at Great […]
Yesterday morning, we wondered whether Connelly Early or Johan Oviedo would nab the final spot in the Red Sox rotation. Come nightfall we learned that it would be… both of them? In a surprise move as they finalized the roster, the Sox decided that both Early and Oviedo would head to Cincinnati to help protect […]
