Reading Time: 2 minutesAs the MLB offseason came to a screeching halt with the inevitable lockout, baseball fans aren’t feeling too great. Let’s take a look at Big Papi’s greatest moments to ease the offseason blues… unless you are a Yankees fan of course! 5. Red Sox Home Run Record There is no doubt that Ortiz is one of the greatest Red Sox players of all time. He cemented this title when he broke Jimmie Foxx’s single-season Red Sox home run record in 2006 against the Twins. It was only fitting that he had this signature moment against the...

Reading Time: 2 minutesNot a lot of people in the MLB sphere had the Red Sox going anywhere last March and boy were they wrong. This Sox team brought fun and resilience to the city of Boston at a time when it needed it most. Everyone remembers the Orioles sweep of the Sox at the beginning of the season quite vividly. That’s when the bandwagon lost a lot of members. Then the Sox got hot and swept the Rays and Orioles.

Reading Time: 2 minutesA month ago, I predicted that the Red Sox could match up with the Yankees, Rays, and Athletics. Now that we know the three possible teams they could play if they make it, it is time to re-analyze their potential matchups. 1.

This one-game playoff depends entirely on the host stadium....

Reading Time: 2 minutesThe Red Sox have had a surprisingly good season as they currently find themselves at the top of a very tough AL East, but it’s still very tight and with the Rays already being very active with trades it should be Chaim Bloom’s turn to counter. These are three trade targets that I believe the Red Sox should look into.    1. Carlos Santana, Royals.  This veteran first baseman is perfect for the Red Sox, he fills a position of need at first base, and also he has a very high walk rate, something the Red...

Reading Time: 2 minutesAs Opening Day for the 2021 MLB season approaches, many have their eyes on the revamped and competitive American League East. The Tampa Bay Rays are coming off a World Series appearance. The New York Yankees enter with the highest payroll in the American League. The Toronto Blue Jays had a splash this offseason acquiring George Springer, Marcus Semien, and bolster breakout potential talent in Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette. The Baltimore Orioles are coming off a fourth place finish and also possess young talent. Then there’s the fly-under-the-radar Boston Red Sox. While many people...
