Padres take two out of three from Sox after their 5-1 victory today. Not much to report here, Lackey pitched and there were like 16 rain delays. Lester goes on Friday in Blitzburgh.

Considering that baseball teams play a 162 game season (the longest schedule in sports), when a team crosses the 80 win plateau they essentially assure themselves of a successful season.

Preseason reports were quite brutal, with most saying that the 2024 Red Sox would not be contenders this season. These pundits were way off base, as these Surprising Sox have a solid record of 7-5 to start the season. This puts them in 3rd place in the always competitive AL East. This year’s campaign saw the Sox…
It has become an extremely apparent problem around The Nation: John Lackey lives up to his last name. The veteran right-hander who had clinched the World Series for his team in 2002 was signed with the Red Sox in 2009 for a whopping 82.5 million dollars. We all knew that was going overboard for someone…
