It took a few games, but Adley Rutschman is beginning to look like the impact trade-deadline addition the Red Sox expected.Rutschman drove in three runs and launched his first home run in a Red Sox uniform Tuesday night as Boston overcame an early blown lead and pulled away for a 9-4 win over the Diamondbacks at Fenway Park.
The Dbacks fell once again for the second consecutive night in Boston 9-4. To make things worse, the Phillies and the Padres won so now the Dbacks are 2 games outside of the third wild card spot. They are losers of 3 in a row and are 4-6 over their last 10 games. Despite everything […]
The runs came early and often for the Sox in this one as they scored in the five of the first seven frames, including three in the opening inning to set the tone. However, the most impressive baseball of the night came in the bottom of the third. Right after Ranger Suarez served up a […]
It’s late summer, which means there is once again confusion around the Arizona Diamondbacks and the status of their star second baseman, Ketel Marte. The mercurial veteran was set to play on Monday against the Boston Red Sox, but did not show up at Fenway Park for the game. Marte’s absence led to a delay…
If Garrett Crochet comes back this season, it’ll be in short relief. Last year’s AL Cy Young runner-up tells Chris Cotillo of MassLive that it’d “a million percent” be a bullpen return if he’s able to make it back before year’s end. Crochet has been out since April 26 with a capsule sprain in his shoulder. […]

It’s been a strange couple of months for Ranger Suarez. He missed a few turns in the rotation back in the middle of July with a groin strain, and even though this will be his fifth start back since that injury, he’s largely faded into the background, even during games he’s pitched. For instance, he […]
There was a time when it seemed like Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer would be building blocks for the Boston Red Sox for the foreseeable future, but that is no longer the case after they traded the latter to the San Francisco Giants.
Boston Red Sox pitcher Payton Tolle has been fantastic this season, but he can't stop one of the team's growing problems.
The Red Sox have placed left-hander Eduardo Rivera on the restricted list, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. The southpaw had to tend to a personal matter, reports Chris Cotillo of MassLive. The development isn’t likely to be notable for the Sox. Rivera was on optional assignment with Triple-A Worcester when he hit the […]
Two key contributors driving the Boston Red Sox’s postseason push—rookie starter Payton Tolle and outfielder Wilyer Abreu—are reportedly being monitored closely as the team manages their future.
The Boston Red Sox are looking to lock up a postseason berth after overcoming a slow start to the season. Sitting third in a crowded AL East, Boston is trying to stay within striking distance of the second-place New York Yankees. But even as the postseason race heats up, front-office chatter has alre...
Foolish Bailey made Jake Bennett out to be a weak contact god. Does history say that Bennett has repeatable skills? What metrics are most repeatable anyways?

The Boston Red Sox have an Andruw Monasterio dilemma they must answer ahead of Trevor Story's impending return to the lineup.
BOSTON — The Arizona Diamondbacks and fans were left stunned Monday night when All-Star Ketel Marte didn’t show up to Fenway Park ahead of the night’s matchup against the Boston Red Sox. While manager Torey Lovullo gave as much information as he could on Marte’s whereabouts and the situation, two reports have emerged Tuesday morning […]
The Boston Red Sox have a difficult Brayan Bello dilemma on their hands that they will need to find an answer for.
Have you noticed something recently during Saturdays at Fenway Park? After Wilyer Abreu hit a thunderous homer to right field to send the Fenway Faithful into a tizzy….while wearing the yellow City Connect jerseys…..the Red Sox have gone back to basics during their Saturday home games. July 25 against the Blue Jays? Home whites. August […]
We're now passed the threshold for Major League teams to call up prospects while retaining their rookie eligibility for the 2027 season. That likely means we're about to see a flurry of prospect promotions over the next couple of weeks. We already got one of those promotions a few days ago with Joshua Baez bursting […]
From the Yankees, Red Sox and Dodgers to the Pirates, Marlins and A's, every MLB front office is graded on a curve that includes the MLB trade deadline.
Death, taxes, and the Boston Red Sox trading away back-of-the-rotation pitching arms. In the past year, the Red Sox have traded away Richard Fitts, Connelly Early, Hunter Dobbins, Shane Drohan, and David Sandlin. Yet, none of these were more controversial than the trade of Kyle Harrison. As the Red Sox struggled through the first few […]

The Arizona Diamondbacks announced Monday they placed second baseman Ketel Marte on the restricted list ahead of their contest against the Boston Red Sox.
Ketel Marte did not show up at the ballpark Monday night for the Arizona Diamondbacks ' game with the Boston Red Sox and was placed on the restricted list by the team minutes before the game. But the "bizarre" twist was that Marte was seen at the hotel bar well after the game: From what I can gather Ketel Marte was seen at the team hotel bar with a group of people around 11 pm last night. So definitely was seen at the hotel late last night. I have covered sports in this market for ...
Patrick Sandoval has been playing with fire baserunners all season since returning from Tommy John surgery this year, and it finally blew up on the Red Sox over the weekend. Now we’re hearing that an injury may be playing a role in his performance, even if it’s a small one. Sandoval apparently has been battling […]
Game Recaps Diamondbacks, minus Ketel Marte, look uninspired in a Boston blowout by Nick Piecoro [AZ Central] Lefty Mitch Bratt gave up three runs in three innings and right-hander Zack Littell allowed eight runs (six earned) in 3 2/3 innings. It was just the Diamondbacks’ 13th loss in their past 34 games — they entered […]
Strikeouts are fascist.* The Red Sox, ergo, stand for democracy and classically liberal values, because last night they did this: In baseball terms, 1949 was a looooooong time ago. Players still left their gloves on the field, for chrissakes! Like a lot of baseball fans (maybe?) I’ve long wondered what it would be like to […]
