PAWSOX PROSPECT PREVIEW
It is difficult to find good two-way catchers in today’s baseball world. While there are some guys who can manage the work load behind a plate and put up solid offensive numbers on the field, few can do both. Red Sox might be one of those few. Blake Swihart, a top prospect, made his Triple A debut… Continue reading PAWSOX PROSPECT PREVIEW

RODRIGUEZ CONTINUES TO ROLL IN TRIPLE-A
The Red Sox traded away many big names at the 2014 trade deadline. Jon Lester and Jonny Gomes were all traded, but the Red Sox didn’t aim for prospects, instead they targeted Major League ready players such as Yoenis Cespedes and Allen Craig. Andrew Miller was traded to the Orioles for a World Series championship. Miller was… Continue reading RODRIGUEZ CONTINUES TO ROLL IN TRIPLE-A
RODRIGUEZ, JOHNSON OFF TO HOT START WITH PAWSOX
The Boston Red Sox pitching staff is not performing well in 2015, it’s no secret. The team is near the bottom of their standings and has been experiencing up-and-down performances by all five starters. The organization could look to Pawtucket’s young staff for assistance if it feels like it is time for one of the starters to… Continue reading RODRIGUEZ, JOHNSON OFF TO HOT START WITH PAWSOX
BRADLEY FINDING HIS SWING EARLY ON
Jackie Bradley Jr. seemed like it was a long time ago when he was lighting up spring training, capturing Red Sox fans’ attention as an up-and coming prospect. Although it’s only been two years, so much has occurred in his short career. Bradley, now 25, was alternating between Pawtucket and Boston in 2013 and 2014. Bradley struggled… Continue reading BRADLEY FINDING HIS SWING EARLY ON
SURPRISED CRAIG STAYING POSITIVE
It’s not news that Allen Craig’s time with the Boston organization was disappointing. Craig was acquired with Joe Kelly in the John Lackey trade. He has hit.130 in 53 games for the Red Sox, but never had consistent playing time. When the team optioned Craig to Triple-A, his frustrations escalated to a new level. Craig stated that… Continue reading SURPRISED CRAIG STAYING POSITIVE
DIFFERENT LOOKS PREPARING PAWSOX PLAYERS
While it is great to win at any level of the game, Triple-A baseball is about preparing players for the big leagues. Minor league baseball gives clubs the opportunity to focus on things that aren’t possible when trying to win on the biggest stage, whether that is young prospects looking to get a longer look at… Continue reading DIFFERENT LOOKS PREPARING PAWSOX PLAYERS
TIME IS UP ON SLOW START EXCUSE
When it comes to slow starts, I believe I am a patient person. Because they occur early, early slumps are easy to overlook. Even though the same slump could occur in July, no one is surprised because some players may have been hitting well up to that point. Mike Napoli should be allowed time to get out of… Continue reading TIME IS UP ON SLOW START EXCUSE
TANAKA TIME AT MCCOY
McCoy Stadium has seen many Red Sox players walk the field during their rehab assignments. It was a Yankee star who took the center stage on Wednesday. Yankees ace Masahiro Takaka made his second rehab start against the PawSox after he was released from an injured elbow and wrist. Tanaka tried to increase his workload after a… Continue reading TANAKA TIME AT MCCOY
OWENS TAKES STEP FORWARD AGAINST BATS
Henry Owens, the Red Sox’s top pitching prospect, has been performing well after a slow start to his season. But Pawtucket’s performance when Owens pitches would not be surprising. Going into Saturday’s game, the team had lost four consecutive Owens starts, three of which were complete losses. Owens made three strong starts after a difficult outing… Continue reading OWENS TAKES STEP FORWARD AGAINST BATS
PAWSOX EMBRACE VERSATILITY
It is difficult for professional baseball players to accept change. The Pawtucket Red Sox are aware that change could be their calling cards to Boston. Manager Kevin Boles changes his lineup night to night by placing players in positions that they are not familiar with. Travis Shaw, PawSox slugger, stated that he goes to the ballpark and… Continue reading PAWSOX EMBRACE VERSATILITY
