Who is he and where did he come from? He’s infielder Curtis Mead, and he comes from a land down under! The 25-year-old Australian has played for a handful of organizations over the past few seasons ever since making his MLB debut in 2023 (more on that in a lil’ bit), but he was most […]
Welcome back, RotoBallers, to another edition of our weekly waiver wire rankings. We are already onto Week 18, and we are a week away from the MLB trade deadline. We saw the Red Sox acquire infielder Curtis Mead from the Nationals for left-hander Connelly Early. At RotoBaller HQ, we have freshly updated our waiver wire […]
The Boston Red Sox are hoping to get a lot out of new infielder Curtis Mead after they traded Connelly Early for him.
Fueled by multiple subtle changes, the third baseman's swing has gone from moribund to smoking hot.
The Yankees took home an exciting win on Monday to kick off a series on the south side of Chicago. Ben Rice had a clutch hit in the seventh to give them the lead, and Ali Sánchez’s three-run homer put the nail in the coffin against the White Sox. With the Rays off for the […]
The Boston Red Sox can say goodbye to these prospects if they trade for Los Angeles Angels' Zach Neto.
Good morning! The Red Sox new middle infielder debuted last night… and immediately got hurt. After getting hit in the left wrist in the fourth inning, Curtis Mead played one more inning in the field before being removed after swelling increased. X-rays after the game were negative, so hopefully it’s not something that keeps him […]
The New York Yankees are three games behind the Tampa Bay Rays for a lead in the American League East, and with a Boston Red Sox team hot on their heels following a tie of their franchise-best 15-game winning streak, there’s not much room for error. If the Bombers want to make their path to […]
Ceddanne Rafaela’s first career grand slam lifted the Red Sox over the A’s last night in Sacramento in a game that was otherwise a sleepy affair. Peyton Tolle gave up a first-inning solo shot to Tyler Soderstrom in the most anti-Fenway homer there is: And then the bats on both sides went silent for a […]
Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers seems destined to end the season with an AL East team.
Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about Ben’s daughter’s first MLB game, and Ben briefly interviews the four-year-old Sloan about her spectator experience. Then they discuss the MVP races (with an emphasis on Pete Crow-Armstrong’s status as the NL frontrunner over Shohei Ohtani), the Nationals and Red Sox swapping Curtis Mead and Connelly Early, a […]
Ceddanne Rafaela broke the game open with the first grand slam of his career in the sixth inning, leading the Red Sox to a 4-2 win over the Athletics at Sutter Health Park.
The A’s got a great pitching performance from their starting pitcher tonight. Unfortunately one swing of the bat was enough for the surging Red Sox to get past the Athletics tonight in the series opener in Sacramento. The Athletics struck first tonight and it didn’t take long. Facing left-hander Payton Tolle for the Red Sox, […]
MIAMI — Don Mattingly sat behind his desk in the manager’s office of the visiting clubhouse. He was looking at […]
The Boston Red Sox win their third straight game with a 4-2 victory over the Athletics.
The squad is back in Sacramento for some much-needed home games after a tough road trip featuring two series losses. Things don’t get any easier for the A’s though as they’ll welcome a surging Boston Red Sox squad that recently went on a massive winning streak. Maybe they’ve used up all their juice and the […]
Weather has inserted itself into the Cincinnati Reds schedule, and for those interested in watching some Ohio Cup baseball on Monday I have some bad news. With storms delaying the start and more in the forecast, Monday’s series opener between the Reds and Cleveland Guardians has officially been postponed. MLB.com’s Mark Sheldon relayed the news […]

The Boston Red Sox are open to moving infielder Marcelo Mayer, who was a first round pick of Chaim Bloom's when he was with the Red Sox. The St. Louis Cardinals should be interested in acquiring him to play third base.
The shocking Red Sox resurgence has happened nearly entirely on or near the East Coast; that changes tonight, in Sacramento, where the Sox will face the A’s behind Payton Tolle. I’m not being hyperbolic to say that this trip is the Sox’s everything; while this year will always be known for The Streak, the ability […]
From June 25 through July 22, the Boston Red Sox ripped off 15 straight wins, tying a franchise record first set in 1946. It became the second-longest winning streak of the decade behind the 2021 Cardinals’ 17-gamer. With it, the Red Sox went from buried in the AL East to now holding an AL Wild […]

The Red Sox already added one new infielder with Saturday’s surprising Connelly Early-for-Curtis Mead swap with the Nationals, but they’re still on the hunt for more bats. Buster Olney of ESPN reports that the Sox have been canvassing the market for shortstop help. It’s not all that surprising to see the Sox looking to upgrade […]
Marcelo Mayer's time with the Boston Red Sox could be coming to an end soon, and he may have already played his last game for the team.
Red Sox pitching prospect Max Carlson has been named the Eastern League Pitcher of the Week for the week of July 20-26, Minor League Baseball announced on Monday. Carlson made two scoreless relief appearances in Double-A Portland’s road series against Binghamton last week. The 24-year-old right-hander worked 5 2/3 hitless innings altogether, issuing just one … Continue reading "Red Sox prospect Max Carlson named Eastern League Pitcher of the Week"
St. Louis Cardinals pitching prospect Blake Aita, whom the Cardinals received from the Boston Red Sox when they traded Willson Contreras, is loving his time within the Cardinals organization.
