Alex Wilson Expecting Chance to Pitch for Red Sox This Season, End His Job at Lowe's

Via NESN.com  |  January 20, 2012
PAWTUCKET, R.I. -- His days started at 5 a.m. Each morning during the offseason, Alex Wilson woke up at the crack of dawn, mentally prepared for the grind. But the grueling labor didn't occur on the baseball diamond. No, from 5 a.m. to 1 p.m., the reigning Red Sox minor league pitcher of the year wound up stocking shelves at Lowe's Home Improvement. "You got to pay the...

Carl Crawford 2012 Scouting Report

Via DailyBoxscores.com  |  January 21, 2012
Rewind one-year back to January of 2011 and the conversation surrounding Carl Crawford was much different. Crawford was a month removed from signing his 7 year/$142 million contract, Tito Francona was labeling him a "game changer" and CC was coming off the best season of his career. Baseball pundits were projecting 120 runs scored, 50 steals, .310 Avg., 15 HRs and...

January 18, 2012: Internet Blackout.Oh, and Carl Crawford’s wrist fell off…

Via Boston Red Thoughts  |  January 18, 2012
It’s interesting that on the day a good deal of the internet is on strike/ boycott/etc to protest the Anti Piracy Legislation (PIPA and SOPA) currently before Congress, there is probably the most amount of Red Sox scoopage to report… And, if you want to sign the petition (against PIPA and SOPA, not against the Sox) you can do so here…. Carl Crawford needs what?...

Red Sox To Appear At Least Twice on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball

Via Sox and Dawgs  |  January 18, 2012
It should come as no surprise that when ESPN announced their 2012 Sunday Night Baseball schedule of telecasts that we'd find the Boston Red Sox playing the New York Yankees twice. The good thing is that we'll be able to listen to Terry Francona every Sunday night since he'll be a part of the broadcast crew replacing new Red Sox skipper Bobby Valentine. I do have to wonder...

Another One of the 25 from 2004 has entered retirement, and it is Orlando Cabrera, who calls it quits at the age of 37.He hit .294 for the Red Sox after he was dealt to the Sox in the Nomar Garciaparra trade on July 31st of that year. He played a solid shortstop, and was a big reason the Sox vaulted into the Wild Card lead that August, and eventually into baseball history.Cabrera...

The Others

Via Fragile Freddy's  |  January 19, 2012
The Boston Red Sox generate about as much attention as any major sports team in the country. With the exception of the Yankees, Montreal Canadiens and probably a few college football teams the Red Sox get a level of coverage and scrutiny that is rarely exceeded.As a result this leaves little in the way of the unexpected. Every year we see that notion dismissed though with Daniel...
