The Boston Red Sox received encouraging injury news Tuesday night despite another frustrating result at Fenway Park, as interim manager Chad Tracy offered a positive update on Willson Contreras following Boston’s loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.
Pitching injuries happen. They have always happened, and they always will happen. That’s why when someone says “there’s no such thing as too much pitching”, they’re correct, regardless of how much pitching that team actually has.
Good morning! The Boston Red Sox have scored just four runs in their last three games. It is now abundantly clear that this is not a good offensive team.
For some reason, I’m not anywhere near as angry as I should be after another loss in which the Red Sox lineup looked like it was reenacting something out of the Deadball Era.
When the 2025 Major League Baseball season came to a close, it was clear that the Boston Red Sox needed more power in the middle of the lineup. Boston was fortunate to have Alex Bregman with the club in 2025, but even with him as a member of the organization, the offense didn't have enough firepower.
Some things appear clear when it comes to Baseball Hall of Fame voting. The PED guys aren’t going to get in, or at least the hitters, and the rubric for starting pitchers has to be reconstructed on the fly.
Both teams were strong on the mound tonight, but the Phillies were just a little bit stronger at the plate in their 2-1 victory over the Red Sox. Jovani Morán started the game for Boston as the opener, and he allowed a solo home run to Kyle Schwarber, which made it 1-0 Phillies.
The Boston Red Sox created countless memorable moments during David Ortiz’s legendary career, but a recently resurfaced story involving longtime umpire Joe West may be among the funniest tales ever shared about the Hall of Fame slugger.
One of the old adages in Major League Baseball is that all teams win a third of their games, all teams lose a third of their games, and it’s that middle third that separates pretenders from the contenders.
The Boston Red Sox are entering Tuesday’s series against the Philadelphia Phillies sitting at 17-23. Boston has not lived up to expectations early in 2026, and to make matters worse they are currently without one of their best players in outfielder Roman Anthony.
Two of the most prominent members of the Boston Red Sox are currently on the shelf in Roman Anthony and Garrett Crochet. Anthony hasn't played in a game since May 4, after he left early with what the club initially called "right wrist discomfort." Over the next few days, the hope was that Anthony wouldn't need an injured list stint.
The Boston Red Sox announced their lineup without Willson Contreras on Tuesday, and the results were... quite something. Facing longtime Philadelphia Phillies ace Zack Wheeler in his fourth start back from shoulder surgery, the Red Sox were missing Contreras, who suffered a right-hand contusion on a hit-by-pitch in Sunday's game.
Speed is more important than ever in MLB with recent rule changes promoting stolen bases. These were the 25 fastest players for the 2026 season, as recorded by the Statcast sprint speed metric.
The Boston Red Sox placed Roman Anthony on the 10-day IL after he sustained a sprained right hand/wrist after hitting a foul ball in the club’s 5-4 win over the Detroit Tigers on May 4.
The Red Sox and Phillies have had similar starts to the season: they’re two big ballclubs with big aspirations who both immediately fell on their faces, prompting two managerial firings.
The American League East and National League East both have several disappointing teams this season, but chief among them seem to be the Boston Red Sox and the Philadelphia Phillies. As a result, each made early managerial changes, but only one team has gotten favorable results so far.
The Boston Red Sox are going to be an intriguing team to follow over the next few months as we inch closer and closer to the August trade deadline. For Boston, it had a disaster of a start to the campaign and that led to the club hitting reset and firing former manager Alex Cora, among a handful of coaches.
Arguably the Boston Red Sox's fastest-rising prospect, 19-year-old Justin Gonzales gained a bit more notoriety in the industry's latest Top 100 list. Baseball
The Boston Red Sox are mid… I’ll be the first to admit that it’s looking like “mid” might be enough to secure one of the final playoff spots in the American
The Boston Red Sox should absolutely be aggressive early on this season. We've already seen a handful of small-scale trades get done around the league, despite the fact that the 2026 Major League Baseball trade deadline won't be here until August 3.
As the Boston Red Sox look to keep their season from collapsing into ruins, those of us on the outside can start tentatively sketching out plans for the trade deadline.
The Boston Red Sox will begin a three-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night at Fenway Park and it sounds like there's at least a chance that the club will have one of their most consistent hitters in the lineup.
Six weeks into his first full professional season, it appears as though Red Sox catching prospect Luke Heyman may be ready for a new challenge. Heyman, whom the Red Sox acquired from the Mariners for reliever Alex Hoppe in November, has been on an offensive tear as of late for Low-A Salem.
Red Sox power-hitting prospect Brooks Brannon has been named the Eastern League Player of the Week for the week of May 4-10, Minor League Baseball announced on Monday.
It's been a long season for the Boston Red Sox, and it's only the middle of May. That includes a very slow start for former All-Star Game MVP Jarren Duran.
Four Red Sox prospects were included in Baseball America’s latest top 100 rankings. Justin Gonzales was not among them, but there is reason to believe that the 19-year-old outfielder is not too far behind.
In a somewhat surprising turn of events, the Boston Red Sox chose to part ways with manager Alex Cora early in the season. It sounds like Cora won't have much difficulty landing a new job.
