The Red Sox traded my favorite pitcher Bronson Arroyo
and that has made me miserable. They kind of had a glut of starting pitchers, but Curt Schilling is kind of old and vulnerable as is David Welles, and though I love Tim Wakefiled, he is always kind of shaky;. Josh Brackett is a great prospect but one never knows. That leaves Matt Clement who got hit...

It looks like the Red Sox will not air any
"free" weekend games this year. Personally, that does not bother me that much because NESN (New England Sports Network) the Sox' channel, is included in my cable TV package anyway but the people who don't enjoy NESN are probably the elderly who have followed the Red Sox their whole lives, but now...

The Red Sox landed center fielder Coco Crisp from
the Cleveland Indians. That was good as they are in dire need of a center fielder with the defection of Johnny Damon to the New York Yankees. If Crisp proves to be a dud with the Sox, he could always start a cereal made from his name. Also, general manager Theo Epstein has made a return to the Sox...

A lot of things have been happening to the Red Sox
over the winter and one of the biggest is that Johnny Damon has abscounded to the Yankees. I don't really mind that much. He is just a jock after all and all the jocks go where the money is highest. If he is a turncoat so are all professional athletes. Damon is an adequate defensive outfielder with...

Larry Luccino finally talks.
Ten days after Theo Epstein folded his cards and walked away from the Boston Red Sox, Larry Luccino finally talked about why he allowed the young man to walk away. And what he said was hardly anything. Just that Theo was responsible for his own decisions. I think the Red Sox owed Epstein more than...

The Fate ofTheo Epstein
The Boston Red Sox' Theo Epstein is a prodigy among major league baseball's general managers. At thirty one years old, he is younger than half the men who play for him. In three years, he has brought the Red Sox one World Series championship, an honor that had eluded them for eighty-eight years...

Yay White Sox!!!
The Red Sox reversed the Babe Ruth curse last year and this year it was the White Sox turn to reverse a curse of their own. The White Sox hadn't won a World Series since 1917, which made their drought two years longer than the Red Sox'. The source of the White Sox curse was the Black Sox scandal of...

I hear Terry Francona taking a lot of heat for the decisions he
made during the series with the Chicago White Sox this year. He possibly made some bad calls but I don't think he deserves to put his head on the chopping block yet. Since he won everything last year, he deserves to have at least one more season in the manager's seat for the Red Sox. I think Chicago...

The Sox have a lot to think about in the off season.
Theo Epstien should be signed first of all. I like that he tries to do many things but sometimes he tries to do too many things. Last year Orlando Carberra replaced Nomar Garciaparra and Theo put his job on the line when he traded the super popular Nomar, but Carbreera was great in the shortstop...

Sox lose to Chisox 5-3!
That's it for another year. The Boston Red Sox lost to the Chicago Whte Sox yesterday 5-3 and now they are looking at another long witner. The White Sox could replace the Red Sox as the darlings of this y ear's World Series. As a matter of fact, I hope they do. This year's version of the Red Sox did...
