    Hanley DFA'd (5/25 Update)

    How is Sam Travis a better option than Han-Ram, now that Pedey is back on the DL?

    Yawkey Way now Jersey St again

    And "New York" was named after the Duke of York, a notorious racist who owned the biggest slave trade operation in colonial times. We need to change the name of that hated state and city...

    Shank aka CHB calls out David Price calling out Eck

    Buckley wrote an article today that adds more details and places the blame on JF. If this has already been posted, accept my apologies. http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/red_sox/2017/07/buckley_fake_tough_guy_john_farrell_to_blame_for_david_price_s_tirade#.WXenmYdnOE1.facebook

    Red Sox sign David Price

    If the going rate in 2018 for starting pitchers with a FIP of 3.19 has risen to $40 or $45MM per year, then I don't say "yes" to the hypothetical question. I'd want Price to stay with the Sox at $32MM per year.

    Red Sox sign David Price

    This exactly. Opt-outs are never good for the team...

    Wade Boggs - What did we have there?

    Fisk: 117 OPS+ Varitek: 99 OPS+ And Fisk played until he was 45 years old, which dragged down his stats

    Wade Boggs - What did we have there?

    In regards to Varitek, his closest comp on B-Ref is Ramon Hernandez... I think the casual Sox fan considers Tek to be on par with Fisk and other legends.

    The Iggy-Peavy Trade Regurgitated

    Based on Iggy's stress fx issues, I'm very happy with that trade. Stress fractures are typically a recurring issue.

    Red Sox deleted policy on number retirement on their website

    It's clear that Boggs preferred the Rays and did not make an effort to endear himself to the Sox. From a 2012 article: If the Red Sox have wanted Boggs to only have eyes for them in retirement, he hasn't been willing to play along. He has appeared at Old Timers' Day at Yankee Stadium and...

    Sox trade Will Middlebrooks for Ryan Hanigan

    His OBP looks good, but is there data that shows how much that is inflated as a result of batting 8th in a NL lineup? His offense could be worse than the numbers indicate.

    Red Sox & Pablo Sandoval agree to 5 Year, $100 Millionish Deal

    August 2014 Game Thread

    Maddon decides to pitch to Rizzo in the 12th inning with 0 out, runners on 2nd and 3rd and first base open ( Castro on deck). Rizzo wins the game with a hit to the gap in right center. IBB is the conventional move there. ..

    Allen Craig

    Thanks. That makes sense. I didn't think about the timing of the deadline. Hopefully, Jeter's doc can get Craig on the path to health.

    Allen Craig

    So the FO only checked his medical records and did not conduct their own physical exam. On a guy with a known chronic injury, who we watched just last October limp around the bases during the WS. OK.

    Kelly Johnson activated off DL; Mookie Betts optioned to AAA

    Am I the only one who wants Mookie to get CF reps in Pawtucket because JBJ might just be who he seems to be? A great defender who cannot hit ML pitching? The best way to get Betts into the Red Sox lineup next year may be CF...

    Stephen Drew traded to Yankees for Kelly Johnson

    This is a great retort. Anything that frees up cash for the FO to spend in elsewhere is fine with me.

    Kelly Johnson? Place holder for WMB? X goes back to SS? Edit: BROCKHOLT! isn't good enough??

    Andrew Miller traded to Orioles

    That scouting report makes me think of Felix Doubront.
