| | Boof Bonser, a somewhat forgotten man who could end up helping the Red Sox's bullpen this season, will resume his Minor League rehab assignment on Friday, when he pitches for Triple-A Pawtucket.
Bonser will throw a side session on Wednesday. The righty missed all of last season recovering from right rotator cuff and labrum surgery. He suffered a right groin injury late in Spring...

| | The game was on the line and Dustin Pedroia had no time to think. All the Red Sox's second baseman could do was react. In other words, he was in just the position manager Terry Francona wanted him to be in.
With Jon Lester in a jam in the top of the eighth -- the bases loaded and one out in a tie game -- Bobby Abreu hit a crisp grounder right at Pedroia, who was playing in. Erick Aybar...

| | When Jon Lester ran into trouble in the eighth, giving up back-to-back singles to lead off the inning, Red Sox manager Terry Francona sent the message to the mound: This was Lester's problem to solve on his own.
"That was a lot of responsibility," Francona said. "He deserves to have that confidence in him."
Lester pitched out of a bases-loaded jam thanks to...

| | There will still be nights when the Red Sox bludgeon their opponents into submission, the way they did in the series opener against the Angels.
But the way they beat the Angels Tuesday night is the way this team will win its way back into contention in the American League East, and back into the affections of its disgruntled fan base.
Great pitching, superb defense and an opposing...

Scutaro’s one fantastic option

| | Three pitches into last night’s game, Marco Scutaro stood on second base after a double to the base of the Wall in left. Two batters later, he scored.
While the Red Sox certainly have missed Jacoby Ellsbury’s presence since he took an Adrian Beltre knee to the chest April 11, giving him four fractured ribs and a spot on the disabled list, there hasn’t been much drama...

| | And so, in the wake of an utterly disappointing April, a horrific weekend debacle in Baltimore, and The Nation foolishly clamoring for change and / or someone’s head to be put on the chopping block (Ortiz), the players called a players-only meeting at Fenway Park yesterday afternoon. It lasted ten minutes. We don’t know what may have transpired behind closed doors, but we...

| | The Pawtucket Red Sox have not defeated the Atlanta Braves’ Triple-A affiliate on the road since the team was relocated from Richmond, VA, to Gwinnett County, GA, at the end of the 2008 season. The PawSox were 0-4 in Lawrenceville, GA, last year. And after tonight’s 4-2 loss, they are now 0-3 at Coolray Field this season, with their final game there (in 2010) scheduled for...

Bad press for Victor Martinez

 |
smokeyboy found this 3 years ago on news.bostonherald.com
| | One day after general manager Theo Epstein said the underachieving Red Sox must shape up or face unpleasant roster changes, manager Terry Francona said many players are putting too much pressure on themselves to spark a turnaround.
Victor Martinez is one of those players.
“He’s probably had some at-bats where he’s been a little anxious,” Sox hitting...

| | With each soaring fly ball that cleared the Green Monster or liner that sliced into the gap, they could finally breathe a little. It had been a stressful past three weeks for the Red Sox, the wins all nail-biters and the losses mostly heartbreakers. But they broke out the bats and simply overpowered the Angels en route to a 17-8 victory on Monday night at Fenway Park.
It was an...
