    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    In the 9th last night, Munoz pitching to Casas, Wilyer Abreu had a helmet on and a bat in his hand in the dugout, so I figured he'd hit for Rafaela or Reyes. He did not, and both of those guys struck out. Does anyone know if Cora was asked in the postgame why Abreu did not pinch hit? I've...

    Red Sox making things uniform for 2024

    Yes! I've been saying for years that the '75 hats should be worn at home and the all blue hats on the road.

    Let's enjoy memories of the Red Sox of the past 20 years! What were your favorites (team/player/moment/etc)?

    We all know how 2003 ended. In early May of 2004, I went with friends to see the Phillies host the Cardinals. As always, I had my Sox hat on, and there's a guy in a Yankee hat near us who sees my hat and starts chuckling. "The Red Sox? Man, I almost feel sorry for you guys." "Yeah, well...

    What does the Red Sox outfield look like in 2024?

    Not that I'm advocating for it, but the trade simulator (I know) says that Verdugo to Brewers for Burnes and Yelich (5 more years @ $26M plus $20M vesting option) is an overpay by the Sox. With money to spend, add Yamamoto and the staff is looking rather strongish next year. Point being, I...

    What does 2023 look like?

    I haven't read CHB for years, so I can only assume he's still as intolerable as ever - sounds like that's the case. I highly recommend just skipping right past any story with his name on it. Cheers.

    Sox Sign OF Adam Duvall to 1 year deal

    Why wouldn't Refsnyder leadoff, as he already has been against LHP? I get that we just lost our five-hitter, but still, why not just make adjustments from five thru nine?
