Clearly, this is the right time for resident Patriots optimist Michael Felger to swoop in and reinvigorate spirits in New England. Felger thinks Patriots can make playoffs this year “It’s absolutely possible,” Felger said on Boston Sports Tonight, “and I’ll tell you why: I…

Thursday’s matchup was definitely a battle, with Crochet finding himself in a few jams which he either got out of or got help to get out of.These are the games the Red Sox need to win to keep themselves in the division race. The forthcoming series agains Pittsburgh and Oakland are also prime examples of games against lesser competition that they need to take advantage of in order to stay afloat in…
The Boston Red Sox lineup has gone through several iterations this season. Prospects have been promoted, injuries have occurred and platoons have been shuffled. The best iteration of the Red Sox roster includes Romy Gonzalez and Rob Refsnyder. While each of them has missed some time due to injury, when healthy, they’re in the lineup against southpaws.
