Is it on TV? Yes, after a one-day break from spring training coverage, the Sox are back on the air. You can catch the game on either NESN360 or over the air on WHDH, first pitch at 1:05 PM. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? It’s Johan Oviedo’s third start, which means we […]
At this point in spring training, the starting second baseman remains a mystery, but Red Sox fans should be ready to go along for the ride. Bring an open mind and a hopefulness that comes from knowing that the Sox seem poised to get better contributions from the keystone position than they have been in […]
Red Sox pitching prospect Isaac Stebens underwent Tommy John surgery last week, according to SoxProspects.com’s Andrew Parker. As a result, he will miss the entire 2026 season and possibly the start of 2027 as well. Stebens is not ranked among Boston’s top 60 prospects by SoxProspects.com. The 24-year-old right-hander was originally selected by the Red … Continue reading "Red Sox pitching prospect Isaac Stebens undergoes Tommy John surgery"

Do you know the last time the Red Sox finished a season without a single player hitting at least 20 home runs? If we’re not counting 2020 — which we shouldn’t, pretty much ever, for pretty much anything — then the answer is a loooooong time ago: 1945, to be exact. But, frankly, we shouldn’t […]
During 2025 spring training, pitching coach Jeremy Hefner has said some positive things about New Jersey native Justin Hagenman. Hefner was impressed with some additional velocity that his pitches had and his ability to command them, but he ultimately did not make the big league club. The right-hander began the 2025 season in Triple-A Syracuse […]
Spring training can often bring us some strange sights as players that have been with one or two franchises long-term suddenly pop up in new uniforms. Seeing stars change teams at their peak and don their new threads is one thing, but the guys who have been through most of their careers before popping up […]
Between 1986 and 2006 15 different Red Sox players made at least 50 appearances at second base in one season: Marty Barrett, Jody Reed, Scott Fletcher, Luis Alicea, Jeff Frye, John Valentin, Donnie Sadler, Mike Benjamin,José Offerman, Lou Merloni, Rey Sánchez, Todd Walker, Mark Bellhorn, Tony Graffanino, and Mark Loretta. Barrett would also cross the […]
Is it on TV? It sure is. First pitch is at 1:05 PM on MLB Network. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? Yikes. As fun as it’s been watching Braiden Ward small-ball his way around the bases this spring, today’s lineup is absolutely brutal. And we don’t even have any fun WBC exhibitions […]
Here are the lineups. For the Phillies: For the Red Sox: Let’s talk about it.
The Cincinnati Reds will open their 2026 season on March 26th in Great American Ball Park with the Boston Red Sox in town. Cincinnati’s Cactus League slate at their home in Goodyear, Arizona will begin this Saturday, February 21st, with the Cleveland Guardians both their home complex compatriots and opponents for the day. With competitive […]
Last year was a true breakthrough season for Cole Henry. After years of battling major injuries, including Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, the former second round pick made the big leagues as a reliever. Despite the solid season, Henry has seemingly overhauled his pitch mix entering year 2. I think his cutter will prove to be a […]
Much of the Red Sox’s offense has been in flux over the last 12 months: Rafael Devers was traded, Alex Bregman walked, Wilson Contreras and Caleb Durbin were acquired, while the infield platoon was refreshed. The combination of moves sounds awful for offensive pop, it but does offer more stability defensively. Meanwhile, he team decided […]
It’s been an interesting couple of weeks for Marcelo Mayer to say the least. Before the games even started, Alex Cora made it clear that no roster spot was guaranteed for the No. 4 overall pick from 2021: By itself, Cora’s commentary packed some punch, but when you add in Mayer’s paltry playing time out […]
MLB.com | Ian Browne: George Lombard Jr.’s strong spring continued Wednesday as he took Red Sox ace Garret Crochet deep to lead off a Grapefruit League game. The Yankees’ top prospect pulled the ball 392 feet and it exited his bat at 104.2 mph. Crochet was “just trying to push it up in the zone […]
What’s the best way for a young top prospect to introduce himself to a national baseball audience before making his MLB debut? Is it gaudy minor-league numbers? Is it College World Series heroics? Is it highlight plays or eye-popping Statcast numbers on the backfields? What about homering off of one of the most dominant starters […]
Is it on TV? Oh yeah, it’s even on ESPN! You know baseball’s getting close when spring training games start popping up on national networks. First pitch is at 1:05 PM. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? It’s not the most interesting spring lineup you could see, but it’s nice to get more […]
Good news, everyone: you’ll actually be able to watch today’s spring training game. After an offday on Monday and the first non-televised game at George M. Steinbrenner Field in some time in yesterday’s mercy-rule exhibition against Panama, the Yankees will be live on ESPN in Fort Myers to renew their rivalry with the Boston Red […]
It’s looking increasingly likely that the deal that sent Christian Vazquez to the Houston Astros for Wilyer Abreu will be remembered not only as Chaim Bloom’s best trade during his tenure at the helm of the Red Sox, but as one of the best trade’s in recent baseball memory. Abreu has already won two Gold […]
An outstanding hitter who started his career as a pitcher is involved in a trade between the Yankees and Red Sox. While this statement could be used to outline the career of the legendary Babe Ruth, it also rings true for the not-nearly-as-renowned Lefty O’Doul — a talented player in his own right and the […]
We live in a world that’s increasingly predetermined. From the results in your search engine, to the next spoon-fed video YouTube recommends, to the advertisements you’ll see in this very article (which by the way you’ll see a lot less of if you sign up for Over The Monster and join our little community).

Welcome to today’s episode of Haway The Podcast, and once again we take a trip down memory lane with Martin, Andrew and Kelvin. On today’s show… • We take a look at the circumstances surrounding Alan Durban’s sacking in 1984 • Recall Danny Blanchflower’s famous comments about the Roker Park atmosphere • Follow up on […]
1921 In the wake of the Black Sox, fortunes were going to turn hard against the fortunes of the South Siders — but don’t blame future Hall-of-Famer Harry Hooper. Charles Comiskey attempted to rebuild his team, making the acquisition of Hooper from the Red Sox as a cornerstone move. The trade didn’t prevent the three-decade fall to come, […]
Is it on TV? Kind of. This is the first night game of Spring Training and it conflicts with a Bruins game, so it’s been bumped to NESN+. First pitch is at 6:05 PM. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? Assuming you can watch it, it’ll be nice to get another look at […]
