Wade Boggs has accomplished a lot, we know this. Hall of Fame. World Series champion. Gold Gloves. Silver Sluggers. Twelve All-Star Game appearances. But actor B.J. Novak may have surfaced the best Boggs accomplishment of them all. It started with a photo posted by Novak -- a graduate of Newton...

The Red Sox may be on the verge of signing a pitcher who served as a major league team's Opening Day starter this season. Before anyone gets too excited the pitcher in question is Jhoulys Chacin, who was just recently released by Milwaukee -- a team also in need of pitching -- after a horrific 2019...

You know the deal. The Red Sox are 5 1/2 games out of the final Wild Card spot with 27 games to play. They are red-hot, having now won five of the first six games on this road trip after a 7-6, 15-inning victory over the Angels Friday night. It is a team that is doing a really good job of clinging...

You might not want to give up on these Red Sox quite yet. Make no mistake about it, this is still at least a Mount Washington-grade climb for Alex Cora's crew. But to the Sox' credit, they are doing their darndest to make it interesting. With their 7-4 win over the Rockies Wednesday night, the Red...

Michael Chavis didn't want to put his rookie season on pause, but he didn't really have a choice. His injured shoulder helped put up the stop sign and suddenly the infielder found himself with some unexpected time to reflect. "When you’re in the middle of things it’s kind of tough to look at what...

Spring training represented a whirlwind of experiences for Bobby Dalbec. For the first time, the infielder was immersed into the world of major leaguers, having lived life as one of the spring training invitees with a locker down at the end of the home team's clubhouse at JetBlue Park. With eyes...

Jackie Bradley Jr. made history Tuesday night. The Red Sox outfielder hit a home run in the second inning of his team's 10-6 win over the Rockies that wasn't your average round-tripper. The 478-foot homer launched into the third deck of the right-center field stands at Coors Field was the longest...

For the first time since leaving his teammates in early June -- returning home to Arizona before undergoing joint preservation surgery on his left knee -- Dustin Pedroia will be back with the Red Sox. According to the second baseman, Pedroia is slated to spend both games in Denver with Alex Cora's...

Nobody knows what is next for Noah Song. This isn't about trying to surmise the next level of minor leagues for the pitcher, or what his possible timetable might be when trying to project an arrival in the major leagues. No, this is something bigger and much more complicated, even though talking to...

The Red Sox did their part once again, Brock Holt in particular. It was the Sox infielder who stepped to the plate to lead off the ninth inning against one of the best closers in the game Kirby Yates and launched a go-ahead home run on the first pitch he saw. One scoreless inning from closer...
