April is in the books, and the Red Sox have an elimination number of 131. When it goes down by about one per day, you’re in trouble. But things are are still getting closer in the pennant race; three divisions are led by 0.5 games, two by 1.5 games, and the Cardinals are leading the [...]

After the third week, the 8-11 Red Sox are already 6.0 games out of the division, and 4.5 games out of the Wild Card. Oakland is still ruling the roost out West, as is San Diego, which few saw coming. An eight-game win streak this early will do that. Washington is somehow above .500, and [...]

This past offseason, the Red Sox became the land of the reclamation projects. The signings of Takashi Saito, John Smoltz, and Brad Penny were seen as low-risk, high-reward moves. Saito has worked out pretty well, but Smoltz and Penny were largely seen as busts. Theo Epstein cut ties with both pitchers, who then found new [...]

Brad Penny cleared waivers today and will join the San Francisco Giants. He will take Joe Martinez’ fifth spot in the starting rotation. Penny was 7-8 with a 5.61 ERA with the Red Sox this season in an up and down season. He was, for the most part, a steady five to six inning pitcher, [...]

Yankees, Marlins, Giants Interested in Brad Penny
