Ah, the difficulties of being a GM. Should
Theo pick up Manny’s option? Should Theo sign Jason
Varitek after the season? For right now, the most pressing concern for the Red Sox is what they will do before the July 31 trade deadline. Should the Red Sox consider trading one of their young arms? Where will the Sox find bullpen help? Now that the Yankees have traded for both...

Red Sox slugger Manny Ramirez, nursing a sore
right knee, has been scratched from the team's starting
lineup for Friday's game against the New York Yankees. The left fielder missed Wednesday's game in Seattle, but manager Terry Francona had said earlier that he hoped Ramirez would be able to return for the start of the Yankees series at Fenway Park. Francona said it was the same knee ...
I've been reluctant to admit that Kevin Youkilis
is more than a poor man's Casey Blake for
most of his career. Maybe it's because the boys at the World Wide Leader were always telling us how great he is. Maybe it's because he doesn't look the part of an everyday major leaguer. Maybe it's because the Red Sox shuffle him around from 3rd to 1st to the outfield. Maybe it's because at the plate.....

2008 NL All Star, is one of those stories. Who would have thought that he’d have a year like the one he’s currently enjoying? His line this week was 9/4/9/2/.290/.333 (R/HR/RBI/SB/BA/OBP). Ryan Howard, 1B of the Phirst place Phillies

The Red Sox struggled to score seven runs
in the first two games of the early-July series
against the Minnesota Twins. They did win both games however. They won 1-0 on Monday thanks to an RBI single by Manny Ramirez . They gathered another win on a comeback also led by Manny Ramirez, who hit a clutch two-run shot to tie the game in the eighth inning. Brandon Moss singled home Kevin Youkilis...
Hey, maybe Alex Rodriguez isn’t the most hated
man in Major League Baseball. A-Rod officially won the
popular vote for the All-Star Game for the second-straight season, and will start for the American League. Joining him will be seven members of the Red Sox: OF Manny Ramirez (elected), DH David Ortiz (elected, will not play), 1B Kevin Youkilis (elected)...
Today’s game was a classic pitchers’ duel that
saw Red Sox pitcher Justin Masterson at the wrong
end. Despite giving up only two runs, Masterson pitched another good game, but Yankees pitcher Mike Mussina pitched a better one. Masterson pitched 6 innings giving up 2 runs on 6 hits with 2 strikeouts and 2 walks.
The Red Sox continued to their winning ways
against the Yankees and took game two of this
four-game weekend series in the Bronx, winning 6-4. Mike Lowell and Kevin Youkilis provided the offense today with a home run and a strange triple. Josh Beckett also pitched a decent game for his eighth win of the season. In the third inning, Youkilis hit a two-run triple.
The Minnesota Twins weren't able to avoid the
sweep from the Boston Red Sox Wednesday after seventh-inning
umpire-related shenanigans turned an incorrectly called triple play into a seven-run fiasco which led to an 18-5 man-handling of the Twins.

The Twins lost to the Boston Red Sox
1-0 on Monday, and for some reason the loss
was harder to watch than most others.

You probably couldn’t hit a baseball and get
it to land on top of the outfield fence
if you were given 10 million tries — OK, you might be hard-pressed to hit a baseball that far in the first place — but in the Bronx on Friday night, Boston’s Kevin Youkilis hit a game-changing triple that will be on blooper reels for years to come. I can’t explain the play in a way that will do it justice —
