The narrative that the Boston Red Sox might be trade deadline sellers crystallized a few weeks back, but they could become a thing of the past soon. Thanks to a 6-2 stretch in the last nine days, the Red Sox are one win away from getting back to .500 for the first time since May […]

Erick Fedde is going to be one of the better trade chips for the St. Louis Cardinals if they opt to sell this season. The starting pitching market is typically rather hot at the trade deadline, and it should be the same this season, if not hotter. Fedde has been a reliable option during the […]

Before Saturday, Jarren Duran had started 69 games for the Red Sox this season — and led off in all of them. Duran, who was out of the lineup for just the second time all season Friday (before entering as a pinch-hitter in the eighth) has manned the top of Alex Cora’s lineup all season […]

Alex Cora and the organization told their star slugger that he would be the team’s designated hitter at the beginning of the season. When Cora asked Devers to fill the hole, the 28-year-old refused, making headlines in the process. Weeks later, the Red Sox have turned to Abraham Toro to play at first base.

Boston Red Sox prospect Jeremy Wu-Yelland has not had an easy journey through the minor leagues. The left-handed pitcher was a fourth-round pick in the 2020 MLB Draft. There was no minor league season that year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so Wu-Yelland didn’t appear in a game until 2021.

Red Sox’s Garrett Crochet Makes Boston History Against the New York Yankees

There’s a lot to like about the Boston Red Sox right now, despite all of the injuries. Boston has won three straight games and six of its last eight games. Of those six wins, three have come against the American League East rival New York Yankees and two have been against the Tampa Bay Rays. […]

The Reds optioned Van Belle to Triple-A Louisville. The Red Sox had designated him for assignment on Wednesday. Van Belle, 28, has yet to make his major league debut. Since breaking into Boston’s system in 2021 out of Miami (FL), Van Belle is 37-19 with a 4.41 ERA in 115 games (84 starts) in the […]

The Red Sox are in the midst of a youth movement, and few rookies are generating more buzz than Roman Anthony. The 20-year-old outfielder, recently called up by the Red Sox, is already making waves — and earning the respect of established veterans.

On Friday, the Chicago White Sox acquired Aaron Civale from the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for first baseman Andrew Vaughn. The new Brewers addition had been a former first-round selection of the Sox, going third overall in the 2019 MLB Draft, picked right after Adley Rutschman and Bobby Witt Jr. This year Vaughn had put […]

The Boston Red Sox scored only two runs against the New York Yankees on Friday night. After giving up five runs in six innings versus the Yankees last Saturday, Crochet was masterful against them in Friday’s series opener, pitching the Red Sox to a 2-1 victory.
