http://www.survivinggrady.com/index.htm - Red Sox Commiseration Spoken Here
The Sox grabbed reliever Robert Manuel off waivers from Seattle . Not sure what our plans are for him, but if he doesn't get flipepd to another team and actually ends up pitching for us, I'd say the very least the folks working the Fenway soundboard can do is play a clip of Basil Fawlty ...

Jason Bay has rejected the Sox' initial offer of four years at 60 million bucks. My question for you this morning is how much would you be willing to pay to keep his 36 home runs, 119 RBIs, 162 strikeouts and .384 OBP (all 2009 stats) in Boston?

The Bottom Line

Only, it won't be. Because George Kottaras, the light-hitting, fast-loving and oft-injured back-up catcher, has been waived by the Sox and picked up by the Brewers . This move leaves us with two catchers, one Canadian (With Kottaras' departure, Bay is now the Sox' lone Canuck) and nobody named ...

Stepping out of the fog of business travel for a few moments yesterday, I was saddened to hear about the passing of Ken Ober , former host of MTV’s game show Remote Control . Honestly, I was never a big fan of Remote , and it’s hard to wax nostalgic for a show that pushed Adam Sandler, Colin ...

I'm back. Or did I really ever go away? Not for you to know. Just listen. Everything happens for a reason. Consider all the theories you've heard for the past 48 hours about the Patriots-Colts game, and let it go. Dust in the wind. Forget every mangled statistic you've heard defending how ...

A few years ago, I found myself in a heated argument about former Sox prospect Abe Alvarez. After the second-round pick was named Pitcher of the Year for the Sea Dogs back in ’04, I figgered he’d eventually prove a useful left-handed cog in the machine, most likely at the back of the rotation. ...

Everytime I turned on a radio this week, all I heard was BradyManningBradyManningBradyManning. True, the Patriots and the Colts are playing Sunday night. But people, it's a regular season game in November. It's not the Superbowl, it's not the playoffs, and it certainly isn't going to determine ...

Belated congrats to future ex-Red Sox Jason Bay for winning his first Silver Slugger award . Congrats, also, to The Great Untanned's agent, who will no doubt be able to spin this into a couple more zeros. Or a boat.

Congratulations to Clay Buchholz for pulling off the most mismatched marriage since Salman Rushdie scored Padma Lakshmi . Clay and "Deal Or No Deal" briefcase opener Lindsay Clubine (right) will tie the knot in California later today. The event will inspire millions of not-so-good-looking ...

How does this happen and not cause national outrage? Derek Jeter winning the AL Gold Glove at shortstop should have been welcomed with anger and vitriol usually reserved for mass murderers and Smashmouth reunion tours. Instead, most people wrinkled their noses like the guy in the next cube ...

My favorite Hideki Matsui story is from the 2004 ALCS. The guy had been killing us games one through four, going 11-for-20 and knocking in 11 runs. Godzilla was stomping all over my dreams, making 2003 look like a good time at Make-Out Lodge by comparison. Then, in game five, Pedro said, ...

I have nothing but respect for the man called Varitek, especially since he may be privvy to what Heidi Watney's arse looks like sans pants. But that photo above of Tek with bat in hand inspires nothing but pure horror in me. Because there was no one who sunk our hearts when he stepped to the ...

When I heard the Sox had declined Alex Gonzalez’ option for 2010 , I’ll admit to being a little surprised. I figgered we’d do what we needed to do to keep the guy around another year, then let him slowly fade into the sunlight next autumn, like David Banner at the end of every episode of The ...

Today is Jerry Remy's birthday. Accordingly, we will don our celebratory Remy masks, drink only the finest of malt liquors, re-read our copies of the Dawg's "Watching Baseball," and sit alongside a lifesize cardboard cutout of Orsillo. Headphones, as always, are optional. Also, happy birthday, ...

I'll never get tired of hating on the Yankees. But this story is a pretty poignant reminder that underneath the unis, we're all just people: Hours after managing the Yankees to their first World Championship in nine years, Joe Girardi managed to become a hero to a Westchester County woman ...
