Latest news and updates about the Red Sox
The Red Sox can’t afford to hit many more potholes. The car is already made of spare tires, and another bump in the road might make the whole thing fall apart. On Monday, Roman Anthony exited the game early with a hand injury. He’s reportedly going back to Boston to see a specialist before deciding […]
The Detroit Tigers dropped the series opener at home against the Boston Red Sox on Monday night, 5-4, in a game that Tarik Skubal was supposed to start, but instead, Tyler Holton took the mound to open things up for the second straight day. The weather was ugly, but not nearly as bad as losing […]
The Red Sox won 5-4 on Monday night after two-time reigning Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal was scratched for surgery (boo), the game time was moved up to 6:10 (yay?) and the Justin Bieber to all of my Detroit friend fans (a sizeable faction, randomly), Kevin McGonigle did not play. So things were going […]
On a day in which some big, dark, looming injury news was made, some big, dark, looming clouds — literal, not metaphorical — hung over downtown Detroit. Eventually, those clouds caused a rain delay, but after dodging the drops, the Tigers dropped the opening contest of their three-game home series against the Red Sox, 5-4. […]

The Red Sox’s game at the Tigers has been moved to 6:10 p.m. because of expected thunder in the area, but not that from the Sox’s bats. And while it’s theoretically nice that they don’t have to face the two-time reigning Cy Young Award winner in Tarik Skubal, it’s a bummer that he’s hurt but […]
If you were plotting out the season before this weekend, taking two of three games against the Astros might have been a nice consolation prize. Losing two instead, when the Astros are a bad team – great offense, poor pitching – is of no consolation. The Red Sox sit 10 games back in the AL […]
No surprise here, as the Detroit Tigers’ rookie phenom was a candidate for league MVP in March and April. He is second place to Aaron Judge in the American League in Baseball Reference’s rWAR with 2.1 wins above replacement and currently tracking toward a potential 9 WAR season in his major league debut. He’s made […]
TUESDAY Bo Bichette became the first Met to homer on the first pitch the Mets saw since Brandon Nimmo off Adam Wainwright on June 17, 2023 Craig Kimbrel struck out three batters swinging in an outing for the 63rd time in his career, but only the fifth time since the start of 2022. One of […]
Worcester: L, 3-6 (BOX SCORE) Jack Anderson got taken for a ride in that middle relief spot as the Red Wings (Nationals AAA) put this one out of reach for the WooSox. While Worcester didn’t have the same luck the Red Sox did with runners in scoring position, going 3-for-8, the lack of baserunners to […]
No need to panic over Ranger Suarez’s hamstring injury just yet. The injury is said to be minor and Suarez himself sounds optimistic: “[H]opefully I don’t miss anything and I can [make] my next start.” But even if this particularly injury doesn’t sideline Suarez for so long, there’s no question that the various hits to […]
Good morning to fans of a first-place team.
Good morning, baseball fans! We are in the middle of a new feature for May that I’m calling the “12 Days of Mays-mas” because I won’t be around for this week, and I want to leave you guys with some fun things to watch while I’m gone. For the fourth day of Mays-mas, I thought […]
That week sucked, man. Even with a couple of wins for the Red Sox here and there, I think we can go ahead and generally chalk up the recent play we’ve seen one week into the post-Cora era as “uninspiring” as this dreadful start to the season slugs along. Another series L against Houston only […]
Hello and happy Monday, folks. The Boston Red Sox baseball club is at it again tonight. They travel to Detroit to face the Tigers in the first of a three-game series. First pitch from the Motor City is 6:40 EST. The best lefty on the planet will be taking to the mound, as Payton Tolle […]
The Detroit Tigers wrapped up a series win over the visiting Texas Rangers on Sunday with a 7-1 victory at Comerica Park. Spencer Torkelson went yard for the sixth time this season to give his team a lead that the bullpen would not relinquish. On Monday, the Motor City Kitties kick off the second half […]
If you had told me about six weeks ago how disappointed I would be at the Sox losing a 4-3 nailbiter and failing to complete a series sweep against one of the National League’s better teams, I probably would’ve told you that it was a good thing. And I would be correct! While today’s tight […]
After a handful of starts for High-A Greenville, Anthony Eyanson is ready to move up to the next level. The Red Sox are promoting the talented pitching prospect to Double-A Portland, according to Chase Ford of MiLB Central. Eyanson is just days removed from making his fifth (and perhaps final) start for Greenville at home … Continue reading "Red Sox to promote top pitching prospect Anthony Eyanson to Double-A Portland"
Squandered is the word of the weekend. It means to waste resources or opportunities through negligence or inaction. In this context, it means leaving runners on base at seemingly every turn. The Red Sox pitched a really good game today. Ranger Suarez threw four shutout innings before leaving the game with hamstring tightness. Tyler Samaniego, […]
Ranger Suarez takes the bump for the Red Sox today in the series finale against the Houston Astros. His first start of the season — a four-run, 4.1 inning performance — came against the Astros, but he’s been much sharper of late. Two of his last three starts were eight-inning shutouts. The Red Sox are […]
TODAY’S GAME: The Houston Astros (13-21) and Boston Red Sox (13-20) play the rubber match of this 3-game weekend series at Fenway Park this afternoon. RHP Cody Bolton (0-1, 5.79 ERA) will start for the Astros vs. BOS LHP Ranger Suarez (2-2, 3.09 ERA). Today will be Bolton’s 1st career appearance at Fenway Park. TODAY’S […]
Babe Ruth is certainly the most famous trade/acquisition in Yankees’ history, probably in baseball history, and you could make the argument for in all of sports history. A big part of its fame relates to how much it almost immediately became a massive swindle, leading to the Red Sox being “cursed” for decades to come. […]
Good morning, baseball fans! We are in the middle of a new feature for May that I’m calling the “12 Days of Mays-mas” because I won’t be around for the next week or so, and I want to leave you guys with some fun things to watch while I’m gone. For the third day of […]
Alex Cora’s termination ended the short-lived tenure of the painfully awful hit celebration that the Red Sox began the 2026 season with. No matter what else comes out of the managerial and coaching changes, I’m truly appreciative of the ripple effect they had on this weirdly weak and unoriginal celebration. As I wrote earlier, the […]
