Just a Quick Thought…with Curt Baylor
Wow, I just had another thought regarding the Red Sox-Yankees game from tonight. Here’s the situation:
Game tied 4-4
Top 9
A-Gon leads off the inning by working a walk.
Lars Anderson comes in to pinch run.
Why?
Last time I checked, Lars Anderson and Adrian Gonzalez have pretty much the same speed. It’s not like Anderson was coming in to steal second. He was coming in...

Red Sox Minor League Prospect Lars Anderson Hones Hitting Stroke With PawSox
Boston fans haven't gotten much of a look at Lars Anderson yet, as the then-22-year-old first baseman appeared in just 18 games for the Red Sox in 2010. Throughout his time in the minor leagues, however, Anderson has shown off considerable power, including a career-high 18 home runs combined at the Single-A and Double-A levels in 2008. Anderson talked about his swing and why...

Lars Anderson Keeps a Positive Attitude Behind the Shadows On the Red Sox
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Lost in the hoopla of the Red Sox trading for one of the best first basemen in the game is the fact that they have a pretty intriguing guy at the position still knocking on the door. Lars Anderson, once considered the top position player on the farm, continues to focus on the next step of his professional career. It's all he can do as he remains somewhat blocked...

Should the Blue Jays Go After Lars Anderson of the Boston Red Sox?
Last week I touched on the departure of Mike Jacobs from the Blue Jays organization and the hole it opened at 1B on the Las Vegas 51s/Toronto Blue Jays depth chart.
Apart from internal candidate David Cooper, who played with Double-A New Hampshire for the second straight season in 2010, the list of available Triple-A first basemen in the Blue Jays’ system is slim.
Looking to...

Red Sox Promote 1B Lars Anderson To Triple-A
The Red Sox promoted 1B Lars Anderson to the Pawtucket Red Sox this afternoon.
Considered one of the better prospects in all of baseball entering the 2009 season, Anderson saw his stock slip dramatically after hitting only .233, with nine home runs and a dismal .328 OBP for Portland (Double-A).
But he has come out on fire in 2010. He hit .355, with a 1.086 OPS, through the first...

Lars Anderson: 'Learning how to deal with own expectations'
Drafted in the 18th round in 2006, Lars Anderson burst on the scene after a strong 2007. In 2008, Anderson did nothing to dispel his skyrocketing value, closing the year out with a .316/.436/.526 line in Double-A Portland in 41 games.
This year, Anderson has returned to Portland for what many thought would be a temporary situation. Instead, as the 21-year old struggles...
