The Boston Red Sox have been hot and cold to start the 2022 season. Their offense has been mostly what has carried the club, as the pitching has struggled. On Wednesday, the Red Sox had a development that is far from ideal for their offense. Boston slugger J.D. Martinez was forced to leave the game […]

The Boston Red Sox shelling out a big contract for Trevor Story gives them a great player that can help them win right now.

After Opening Day was rained out on Thursday, the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox began their respective seasons on Friday with an afternoon game in the Bronx.
