Latest news and updates about the Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox did not play baseball last night, or even yesterday afternoon. But, never fear! About 60 miles west, in New England’s second biggest city and home of the gravesite of the guy who invented the smiley face, several players with MLB service time and some with some more service time certain to […]
WORCESTER, Mass. – Roger Clemens arrived as the Guest of Honor for WooSox Opening Day with core memories of the 40th anniversary of a special season. The 1986 campaign started a run of over two decades in the majors as one of the best starting pitchers in the sport. From learning from Hall of Famer […]
Cristopher Sanchez was phenomenal during Thursday’s season opener against Texas. Seeing him put up six innings of shutout baseball is more and more becoming the normal expectation for a start of his, a mark of not only an exceptional player development success, but also the work put in by Sanchez to get to that point. […]
WORCESTER, Mass. – The Boston Red Sox paid Kristian Campbell early last April because the organization believed in the 2023 fourth-rounder after his meteoric minor league rise. His MLB experiment came crashing down after just 11 weeks in the show last season. Campbell struggled defensively at second base and hit just .223 in 67 games. […]
Is Roman Anthony already the leader of the Red Sox? The entire world already treats him as the club’s best player, and he backed that up with three hits and a walk on the first Opening Day start of his career. But the 21-year-old isn’t just leading the team on the field. “Even though it’s […]
Good morning! Yesterday was a legitimately nice spring day in New England and the Boston Red Sox won a real baseball game. Life isn’t one hopeless gauntlet of pain after all! As baseball fans, we’re not supposed to overreact to one game. But overreacting is fun. So let’s hear what knee jerk conclusions you’ve drawn […]
The Yankees got to take their first off-day of the year easy after demolishing the Giants on Opening Day, watching as the rest of the league got to take a shot at getting in the win column. In the AL East, everyone but Toronto jumped into action with the O’s and Sox winning to form […]
Welcome back baseball, indeed! On an absolutely GLORIOUS day in Cincinnati, the Red Sox took down the Reds by a final score of 3-0. This box score somehow feels earned despite the way the game went? Let me explain. The Red Sox offense got the better of Andrew Abbott but couldn’t push a run across […]
The Cincinnati Reds got a rock solid start by Andrew Abbott in his first career start on Opening Day. The left-handed All Star fired 6.0 IP of scoreless ball, but the problem was that the Boston Red Sox similarly had an All Star lefty on the mound in Garrett Crochet. Crochet kept Cincinnati just as […]
Here are the entries for this year's W-L contest : W-L TEAM ERA Paul H. 95-67 3.57 Benjamin B. 95-67 3.66 Rich G. 93-69 3.57 Jacob L. 92-70 3.43 Brett H. 92-70 3.45 Allan W. 92-70 3.75 Jeff M. 91-71 3.70 Eddie N. 90-72 3.69 Dave I. 90-72 3.90 Warren S. 90-72 4.50 Michael G. 87-75 3.62 There has almost always been a decent amount of optimism when it comes to the predictions. I note, however, that the Red Sox have not won 90+ games since 2021 (when they went 92-70 and lost the ALCS (2-4) to Hous...
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. The native Venezuelan had drawn praise as an amateur for … Continue reading "Red Sox release another top international signing after five seasons"
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, […]
