World Champion Sox Look To Repeat

One of the coolest things about last years team, was it wasn't a "boom or bust" roster. There was only one major player headed to free agency (Ellsbury) and although it goes without saying that leaves a hole, it could have been much …

No, the lead isn't Jacoby Ellsbury

That's right Sox fans. I already bid adieu to Ellsbury in the last post, so there's no need to dwell on it other than to arch an eyebrow at the destination. So now that Cano moves to the West coast, we …

Sox Celebrate Third Championship in 10 years in Home Sweet Home

I can't wait to hear them talk when Iglesias becomes …
