"Last season, Curtis Granderson peppered baseballs into the right-field seats of Yankee Stadium with ease.
But if not for the Boston Red Sox balking at the Tigers asking price in 2009, Granderson very well could have been peppering balls off the left-field Green Monster at Fenway Park.
The Wall Street Journal's Daniel Barbarisi reports that before the three-team deal that sent...

"Josh Beckett has broken his silence.
Nearly two weeks before Red Sox pitchers and catchers must report to Fort Myers, Beckett made his first public comments about the team's historic September collapse in an interview with MLB Network's "Intentional Talk," hosted by former Sox first baseman Kevin Millar. While fellow starters Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz have...

| | "Eighteen days remain before Red Sox [team stats] pitchers and catchers must report to spring training, the club is "still talking" to free agent right-handers Edwin Jackson and Roy Oswalt, a major league source said yesterday.
But general manager Ben Cherington said it's "unlikely" the Red Sox will sign either pitcher.

"First things first: David Ortiz will play for the Red Sox this season.
That much was guaranteed in December when Ortiz ended his free agency by accepting salary arbitration. The issue now, and perhaps at a hearing within the next two weeks, is how much he will get paid, and the difference of opinion is wider than a Billy Cundiff field goal attempt.
Ortiz wants $16.5 million;...

"The Boston Red Sox have made an offer but are "most likely out of the picture" for Edwin Jackson, the top starting pitcher remaining on the free-agent market, because there are better deals on the table from other clubs, according to a baseball source.
Boston's offer to Jackson was for one year and between $5 million and $6 million, according to the Boston Globe....

"If you had to pick a position on the field to build a team around, shortstop is where most would start.
Unless you're the Red Sox.
Then it's more of an afterthought.
The kryptonite Nomar Garciaparra left behind when he was traded in mid-2004 has lost none of its potency in 71/2 years. Saturday night's trade of shortstop Marco Scutaro to the Colorado Rockies for $6 million in...

"The Red Sox have made a significant addition to their bullpen, acquiring righthanded reliever Mark Melancon from the Astros for infielder Jed Lowrie and reliever Kyle Weiland.
Melancon, a hard-throwing 26-year-old had a 2.78 earned run average and 20 saves in 74.1 innings for Houston last season. He struck out 66 and walked 26.
His numbers suggest he could serve as the...
