Boston Runs On Red Sox A.B. So I’m headed to Ft. Myers on Friday for Red Sox Spring Training with my pops. It’s kind of a new tradition, in the second year. More than anything it’s a time for father-son to get away from all the B.S. and do what father & sons have been doing for 100+ years; drink beer and watch baseball. And being the incredible son I am (and never missing...

He is likely to make the Red Sox 25 man roster as an outfielder who mashes lefties. Will he get major playing time in 2012 due to Crawford’s inability to hit lefties better than Mario Mendoza? Read on for the scoop on...

Bailey, Miller and Crawford all progressing

Closer Andrew Bailey has to pitch this spring because of a strained lat muscle but that will come to an end hopefully on Friday when he is scheduled to pitch batting practice. Bailey also has a tentative inning on Monday  against the Marlins. Closers typically need much less time to get ready for the season given that they only pitch (usually) one inning at a time. I'm interested...
