NEWS
The Boston Red Sox have announced that ESPN’s Bobby Valentine will be their new manager, replacing Terry Francona.
The Red Sox took their time with the managerial search, spending almost two months looking for their next skipper.
Valentine is best known for his time with the New York Mets and most recently spent time managing in Japan. His name has come up for several openings over the past few years, but was alway passed over or turned down the job.
He has a big personality, so it will be interesting to see how he deals with some of the characters in the Red Sox clubhouse.

The Boston Red Sox and manager Terry Francona have decided to part ways after eight years together.
The Red Sox fell apart in September, blowing a nine-game wild card lead over the Tampa Bay Rays.
Francona had a tremendous run with the Red Sox, winning two World Series and finally ending the Bambino curse.
Rumors are floating around that Francona was actually forced out, but that the team is trying to make things look amicable. (Read More…)

Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz is headed to the disabled list with a sore right heel.
Ortiz was expected to play against the Tampa Bay Rays but was a late scratch from the lineup.
The team said that Ortiz is out indefinitely and there is some concern that it could be a long DL stay.
Ortiz ripped the ball on the team’s recent road trip, so the pain wasn’t affecting him much at the plate. (Read More…)

The Boston Red Sox saw the Rich Harden deal cancelled, so they went out and grabbed another injury-prone starting pitcher in Erik Bedard.
The Red Sox initially targeted Bedard for a trade but were scared away after his disastrous performance in his first outing since coming off of the disabled list.
However, the addition gives the Red Sox quite possibly the best tandem of left-handed starters with Bedard and Jon Lester.
Boston, despite the second-best record in all of baseball, has been seriously concerned about its starting pitching throughout the season. (Read More…)

Boston Red Sox first baseman David Ortiz will miss three games for his role in a bench-clearing brawl against the Baltimore Orioles.
Ortiz was originally given a four-game suspension but opted to appeal, and it was reduced by a game.
Ironically, the Red Sox are playing the Orioles in a three-game series and Ortiz will miss the entire set.
The veteran designated hitter has apologized for his role in the fracas but said he had to show he wouldn’t be pushed around. (Read More…)

Boston Red Sox designated hitter didn’t like an inside pitch, so after hitting a home run, he flipped his bat and spun before taking off for first base against the New York Yankees.
Manager Joe Girardi was angry about Ortiz’ actions, but it didn’t seem to bother the left-handed power hitter.
Ortiz made it clear that he wasn’t a fan of Girardi’s either, further fueling a rivalry that is already as heated as one can get.
Ortiz rubbed salt in the wound by saying he wouldn’t have done it any differently if he had the chance, stating that he hit a bomb and that the corresponding actions were Big Papi style. (Read More…)

The Boston Red Sox used a three-run home run from third baseman Kevin Youkilis to gain a 7-5 victory over the host New York Yankees and complete the three-game sweep.
The Red Sox were able to reach .500 for the first time this season, overcoming their 0-6 start to the year.
They were also able to knock the rival Yankees out of first place in the American League East and close the gap between themselves and the division leading Tampa Bay Rays.
Boston still doesn’t seem to be clicking on all cylinders, which is the scary part for the rest of the division. They have managed to hang around despite their slow start, and the top teams in the division may regret allowing them to do so come September. (Read More…)

Every year, baseball fans look at the 18 meetings between the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees and say those matchups will determine who wins the American League East.
It didn’t happen that way last season. The two ancient arch-rivals split the season series 9-9. Neither team won the AL East title. (Read More…)

Boston Red Sox outfielder Carl Crawford said he was creeped out by the club’s admission that they had investigated him before signing him.
The Red Sox said that they not only had scouts looking at Crawford on the field, but people monitoring him off of it.
Crawford didn’t seem to happy that people were spying on him away from the field, saying it was creepy.
He then admitted that the Red Sox probably felt they had an obligation to do such a thorough investigation because it was such a big investment. (Read More…)

Boston Red Sox pitcher John Lackey is ready to bounce back after a very disappointing 2010 season.
Lackey was signed to a big contract by the Red Sox and expected to be one of their top starting pitchers.
Instead, he got off to a horrible start and looked like a terrible investment for a team that needed another quality starter.
He pitched better down the stretch, but was still not able to live up to the big contract he signed in the offseason. (Read More…)
