| | For those teams that pay close attention to the statistics, the possibility of making an out almost always outweighs the benefit of advancing 90 feet via a stolen base.
Base stealers were thrown out 28 percent of the time in the majors last season, a risky percentage considering teams have only three outs to play with in an inning.
“Not making an out is more...

| | Following a disappointing 2009 season, Daisuke Matsuzaka knows he will have to prove himself in 2010 among the other members of the Red Sox rotation -- Jon Lester, Josh Beckett and John Lackey.
But he hopes to pitch well enough to turn the Big Three into a Big Four, the Boston Herald reports.

Victor Martinez: Stats dish out truth
|

smokeyboy found this 3 years ago on news.bostonherald.com
| | Victor Martinez figures the best defense of his catching is the baseball encyclopedia.
Under Martinez’ entry is the number 717. That’s how many games he has caught in a big league career that dates back to 2002.
While 717 games should be enough for most to form an opinion of whether or not someone is good at what he does, it appears to be a little short for Martinez,...

smokeyboy found this 3 years ago on www.boston.com
| This is their ninth season running the Red Sox. They have won two world championships, rebuilt Fenway Park, triggered a 550-game sellout streak, and made “Red Sox’’ a global brand.
But just as the giant tower in the Back Bay will always be the “new’’ Hancock building, these guys are destined to forever be the “new owners.’’ And...

smokeyboy found this 3 years ago on bostonherald.com
| | Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein has spent the last three years trying to convince anyone who will listen that right fielder J.D. Drew is worth $70 million.
The GM should have let the player do the talking.
For yesterday morning, Drew made it loud and clear that he is worth every penny the team has paid him since 2007.

Marco Scutaro happy to play leading role

smokeyboy found this 3 years ago on news.bostonherald.com
| | Marco Scutaro finds himself in a pleasantly unfamiliar position as Red Sox training camp opens.
It took Scutaro eight years to reach the majors. It took him another eight to become a full-time starter.
But at the tender age of 34, Scutaro finally has some job security. The Red Sox gave him a two-year, $12.5 million deal that has a $6 million option for 2012, and as spring...
