A wild game at Fenway confirmed two unmistakable truths about this Red Sox team.

Wow! That felt like an old school Red Sox vs. Yankees game!

For over three hours, the two teams exchanged blows before a packed house amid an electric atmosphere at Fenway. The excitement peaked in the bottom of the eighth inning when the Sox carved out the final three runs of the seesaw slugfest.

Rob Refsnyder started the inning with a single, his third hit of...

Win this one

Red Sox.

Yankees.

Just a few games apart.

Both fighting for the Wild Card.

Both competing for additions in the bullpen and the rotation.

Second half.

A lefty on the mound for the bad guys.

Which Bello shows up tonight?

Red Sox News & Links: Sox Acquire James Paxton in Trade with Dodgers

Welcome back, Big Maple.

Ladies and gentlemen, your big trade deadline acquisition: Triston Casas! He likely won’t be the only addition to the Red Sox this week, but it is probably true that Breslow won’t reel in a player as talented as Trizzton. Speaking on the radio yesterday, Breslow reported that Casas is finally taking batting practice as he recovers from his early season rib injury. A rehab stint may be right around the...

Let’s turn this around for Breslow

TGIF.

The road trip went about as badly as you could have dreaded. A sweep from the Dodgers - with one definitely winnable game - and two losses at the hands of the miserable Colorado Rockies. Almost as bad as losing to the Chicago White Sox.

Now the Yankees are coming to town and this is a big one for the Red Sox.

Boston is 4.5 games behind New York in the Division (6.5 behind Baltimore) and 1.0 game back of the...

Trade Deadline Smash or Pass: Reid Detmers

Detmers, paired with Carlos Estevez or Luis Rengifo, could make the Angels an ideal trade partner for the Red Sox at the deadline.

Who is he and where does he come from?

He’s Reid Detmers, a left-handed starting pitcher who was the tenth pick in the 2020 draft out of Louisville by the Los Angeles Angels. He made 70 starts for the team from 2021 to 2024 before being surprisingly sent to the minor leagues after a start on June 1....

Dalbec played right field and hit a ninth-inning three-run shot.

The Red Sox allowed 20 runs against the Rockies to close out an abysmal road trip 1-5. The farm hasn’t been doing too much better. Worcester’s bats were absent in game one of a double header, but rebounded late in the second game thanks to Bobby Dalbec, who may or may not be experiencing his last week with the organization. Let’s get into it.

The Red Sox Didn’t Choose Alex Cora. Alex Cora Chose The Red Sox.

The Sox hang onto their manager for at least three more seasons.

Alex Cora had choices. That’s an important thing to keep in mind when thinking about his decision to sign a 3-year, $21.75 million contract extension with the Red Sox. He may or may not have been destined to manage the Dodgers, as was heavily speculated (though I think much of that speculation ignores how hard it would be for Dodgers fans to accept a man who played a key role...
