The View from the Green Monster

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

How to have a great Patriots Day.
Step 1: Call the Red Sox ticket office on a whim on Sunday morning and ask them if they have Monster tickets for Patriots Day.
Step 2: Jump up and down when the guys says they have 4 seats together in section 1. Proceed to charge $650 on your [...]

The Rangers Still Have No Pitching

Friday, April 18th, 2008

The Rangers once again have no pitching to speak of, whatsoever. Last year, Texas had the 11th best pitching in the American League, with only the White Sox, Devil Rays and Orioles being worse. This year, they aren’t any better. You probably can’t name all 5 starters, and I’d actually be pretty [...]

Jed Lowrie Time!

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

Oh, what a debut for the kid. Jed Lowrie got his first 3 RBI as a pro, and of course, the all important first hit (and no errors). Playing outside of his natural shortstop position, Lowrie look somewhat over matched at the plate, but was still able to put the ball in play [...]

The World Series Rings and Opening Day

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

The first pictures of the rings are out on the Boston Globe web site (Thanks George Rizer). Mayor Mumbles Menino wore the same Red Sox jacket he always has on while wandering aimlessley around left field with a Red Sox World Series ring on today.

This means, of course, that the real season starts today. [...]

The First Ever New York vs. Boston Fantasy Baseball Rivalry League is Going On Today!
I think this is a pretty cool concept - check it out at the link below.
The RotoHog Rivalry League is free to play, and participants are also automatically entered into the 2008 RotoHog.com Fantasy Baseball Championship with prizes to the Top [...]

39,928 - Fenway’s new Capacity

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

Its not quite 40,000, but its real close. Close enough to round up in my opinion. The Red Sox officially unveiled the new seating and standing areas at Fenway today. But, for most of us, the biggest change we’ll be noticing will be new bleacher seats. Not any new locations, just [...]

Tickets Galore!

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

So if you have been checking RedSox.com for tickets in the past couple days, odds are you have been happy.
Yesterday, on April 1 in the mid-afternoon, the Sox released Pavilion Box and Pavilion Standing Room for every game this year outside of the Yankees and Opening Day (all but the lottery games). This means [...]

Cy Young Winner Colon Set to Rot in AAA

Monday, February 25th, 2008

For all of you Red Sox fans living in Rhode Island, good news! At Pawtucket Red Sox games this year, you’ll get to see Bartolo Colon get lit up by a bunch minor league players! Yes, the Red Sox have signed former taco-eating champion Bartolo Colon.

I first saw this picture back in [...]

Manny Reports On Time - Its Sox Time

Thursday, February 21st, 2008

Well, since I am not actually at Spring Training, I am going to go ahead and rip off the Extra Bases blog for their classic picture of Manny reporting.

How silly does he look? But I guess that is just Manny being Manny… But hey, at least he actually showed up on time this [...]

Spring is Here!

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

Spring has sprung. OK, so it may be snowing right now in some parts of Red Sox Nation, but still, pitchers and catchers are reporting and Spring Training has begun!
We’ll spare the analysis of the new guys (Casey and Aardsma), the contract extensions (Lowell, Schilling), and the deals that didn’t happen (Buchholtz and Lester [...]
