    Would a lousy 2019 tarnish 2018 at all for you?

    I am still surprised that there is baseball already. Game 5 of the 2018 WS seemed like only a couple of weeks ago.

    ALCS 2018 - Houston Astros

    Bradley led the Sox with WPA of .680 in ALCS. Brasier led the pitching staff with WPA of .390 (per Fangraphs) (Betts, Benintendi Kinsler and Vazquez at the bottom.) I would post a table but don't know how to export Excel to SoSH.

    The curious case of Alejandro De Aza

    Was this a decision that Cherington made, or is DDski already in the driver's seat?  Is this Dombrowski's first transaction as Red Sox 'GM'?

    Hanigan fractures knuckle; Swihart to be called up

    Pete Abraham ‏@PeteAbe  2m 2 minutes ago Hanigan has a fractured knuckle on his little finger. Seems to be a chance he returns but it would not be for a while if so.

    The Canon of Cannons - OF arms past

    Red Sox Agree to Terms with Justin Masterson

      False equivalence.  Neither pitcher was available on a 1/$9.5 deal.  Masterson was worth 2 & 3 1/2 fWAR in his last two healthy seasons... give him a chance.
