Major League Baseball’s annual trade deadline is always a whirlwind for players who find themselves dealt midweek, mid-series, or even mid-game. Or in Dustin May’s case, four days after he pitched at Fenway Park for the first time in his career. May started last Sunday’s finale between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Boston Red Sox. Six days later, he was back in Boston. This time, wearing Red Sox warmup gear and meeting the press in the home team’s dugout. “It was definitely a ride of emotions,” May said as he took questions for the first time since the trade. “Definitely…

The Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays reportedly had conversations regarding a potential trade on Thursday. It’s abundantly clear they were not on the same page… Jared Carrabis, everyone’s favorite tapped-in superfan, provided context to discussions that reportedly focused on Rays first baseman Yandy Diaz. The Red Sox were supposedly looking to pry away the division rival, but the asking price was so high that it “probably made (Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow) die laughing,” according to the baseball personality. Tampa Bay’s request? Ceddanne Rafaela. Story continues below advertisement Carrabis was creative in revealing the information, never…

Dustin May is set to take the mound at Fenway Park for a second straight Sunday. This time, however, he’ll be wearing a different jersey. The 27-year-old righty is scheduled to make his Boston Red Sox debut Sunday morning against the Houston Astros, just three days after he was acquired by the team and exactly one week after he made what turned out to be his last start with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Red Sox picked up May in a trade with the Dodgers as the clocked ticked down to the 6 p.m. ET MLB trade deadline on Thursday.…

Tonight the Red Sox will take the field for the first time since Thursday night’s MLB trade deadline, and the lineup will look a little different than usual. Abraham Toro will be batting cleanup when the Red Sox open their weekend series against the Houston Astros, batting ahead of Roman Anthony, Alex Bregman and Jarren Duran and ahead of Trevor Story, Masataka Yoshida, Carlos Narvaez and Wilyer Abreu. Toro is batting .264 with a .719 OPS on the season but just .212 over his last 33 games. His presence in the heart of the lineup is likely due to his…

When Steven Matz was a free agent after the 2021 season, the Red Sox were among the teams that expressed interest in signing him. It wasn’t just team officials who reached out either. “I remember a lot of guys reaching out,” the left-hander said Friday. “I remember (Nathan) Eovaldi reaching out, Kiké Hernandez, (Kevin) Plawecki and everyone saying how much they loved it here and the culture here, how much they love (Alex Cora) and playing here.” Matz wound up signing with the St. Louis Cardinals on a four-year, $44 million contract, but he never forgot the things he heard…

Something about the Boston Red Sox in green just works. The club has now walked it off four times while wearing their new “Green Monster” City Connect uniforms, a trend that manager Alex Cora fully embraces. “A few years ago, it was the yellow uniforms. Now it’s the green… whatever it is, just make it fun again here, make it a madhouse,” Cora said, as transcribed by Ian Browne of MLB.com. That madhouse came to life again Friday night. The latest hero was rookie outfielder Roman Anthony, who ended a tense extra-inning battle against the Houston Astros with a two-strike…

The Craig Breslow slander snail, which oozes contempt wherever it goes, is a dumb idiot. Does Bres seem like the most approachable guy? No. But the Red Sox brass, in their infinite wisdom, have made him the face of the franchise as it stumbles toward (checks notes) its best finish in years. What the shit, man? They beat friggin’ Houston last night, 2-1. What more do you need to see to believe? Why is the man in charged being blamed for the team being good? Can’t we have nice things? Give us nice things!

In the ever-more analytical world of professional sports, how should we measure the success of a team owner? Since financial profit is virtually guaranteed thanks to leagues’ monopoly power, any meaningful metric must look beyond the bottom line. Should we base our evaluations on wins and losses? Or should we consider team owners’ roles as leaders and community partners? For John Henry, the principal owner of the Boston Red Sox, the current baseball season will go a long way toward determining his legacy on the diamond and beyond. Henry, whose tenure in the Fenway Park ownership box includes the team’s…
