Is this the Red Sox Opening Day lineup?

Is it on TV? Sure is. First pitch is on NESN at 1:05 PM. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? Call me crazy, but that looks like a possible Opening Day lineup to me. Maybe it’ll be Jarren Duran at DH instead of Roman Anthony — and it obviously won’t be Johan Oviedo […]

Who’s the Red Sox’s fifth starter?

Hello and happy Monday, folks. We’re mere hours away from Opening Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With that in mind, the question of the day is simple: who’s going to be the fifth starter in the rotation? Crochet’s a Cy Young candidate. Suarez and Gray are locks. Bello’s a good of a bet as anyone in the organization to […]

Burke solid, but bats sleepy in 4-2 loss to Seattle

I have to be honest with you, reader, the players on the field in this one were about as tired of Spring Training as I am. Sean Burke was solid in his final tuneup before adding “Day After Opening Day Starter” to his CV, allowing just a pair of runs over five innings. Unfortunately, he […]

Red Sox News & Links: Marcelo Mayer is your second baseman

Yesterday, manager Alex Cora announced that Marcelo Mayer would be the starting second baseman for the 2026 Red Sox. Thus concludes one of the sillier spring training storylines we’ve seen in a long time. There was never really any baseball reason to suggest that either Isiah Kiner-Falefa or Andruw Monasterio would make more sense for […]

Will the Red Sox and Yankees battle for the AL East crown?

What’s This Team’s Deal? This team has won one World Series since the year 2000. I haven’t looked into what happened in the hundred years before that.  In 2025, after winning a three-game Wild Card series against the Red Sox, New York went down to the Toronto Blue Jays 3-games-to-1, allowing 37 runs in those […]

Chris Sale cruises, Austin Riley crushes in 6-1 spring win

We had a great matchup of two dominant lefties in Spring Training on Saturday, with Chris Sale facing Garrett Crochet and Sale’s former team, the Red Sox. Sale gave up two very hard-hit balls in the first at over 104 MPH each, but only allowed a walk for a single baserunner. Sale was able to […]

Braves vs Red Sox Spring Training Game Thread: 3/21/26

The Braves have one of their final tune-ups of spring against the Red Sox and they are facing Garrett Crochet, who has had a fairly unimpressive spring. Still, the star pitcher who the Braves reportedly were interested in trading for should be a good test for the Braves’ bats. You can see the lineups here […]

AN Exclusive: Blogfather Squats Down To Shea Langeliers’ Level

From the moment I introduced myself to Shea Langeliers it was clear he was just an easy guy to talk to. Friendly, personable, and laid back, Langeliers’ manner belies the insane job description of a major league catcher. That became one focus for our interview Saturday, March 14th, starting with the newest challenge. Pun intended. […]

Goals for the Red Sox infield in 2026

At this point each season, everything is fresh and new, and nearly anything seems possible. For the Red Sox infield, the mystery of what the season holds is even more intriguing because the Red Sox have an almost completely new-look infield. For the most part, the players are new to each other and to Fenway: […]
