Red Sox have confirmed the signing of veteran right hander Paul Byrd from Cleveland Indians. After struggling at the beginning of the season, Byrd had picked up his game and has been on a roll lately for the Indians. Red Sox signed Byrd after Tim Wakefield was put on the disabled list. The Red Sox are currently involved in a cat and mouse battle with Tampa Bay Rays for the top spot in the league and Byrd would have to make his debut in the thick of all the action that has been going on. Byrd says that he is up for the challenge and the pressure is only going to get the best out of him.

The Red Sox veteran pitcher Tim Wakefield has been complaining of a slight stiffness in his right shoulder for some time now and the Red Sox management has decided to send their starter pitcher to the disabled list in order to further diagnose the problem. He was expected to be the starting pitcher for the red Sox team for the Tuesday’s game against the Rangers. The Red Sox camp is hoping that this injury to Tim Wakefield will not keep him out of action for too long and expects him to be in the thick of things after two games. The Red Sox fans can buy the tickets to the baseball games through various online ticketing sites as well as at the games venues.

Jason Bay is fitting in well with the Boston Red Sox after the trade that brought him from Pittsburgh to Boston.  The team has gone on to win five out of the six games in which the left fielder has featured. Bay hasn’t been seen to buckle down under pressure and he proved it by scoring 10 times for Boston in the last 6 games. Boston Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein is delighted with the signing of Bay and is relieved that Bay has managed to fill the void created by the departure of Ramirez. Bay is finally delighted to be in contention of a spot in the playoffs in his fifth Major League Season.

Manny Ramirez will no more be playing in the Red Sox colors this season as he has been traded to the Dodgers team and the man who will be replacing this hefty hard hitter will be the outfielder Jason bay of the Pittsburgh Pirates. All the remaining dues to Ramirez as per the contract will be paid to him by the red Sox. It is expected that the six years younger Jason will be doing a good job for the Red Sox for the remainder of this season. Jason Bay will be retained in the Red Sox squad for the next year as well. The Red Sox fans will be rushing to buy their tickets to the upcoming Sox games as they will want to get a glimpse of the baseball skills of newly acquired Jason.

This win on Wednesday helped the Angles to make a clean sweep of the series against the Red Sox and one of the recent upset stories of Major Leagues. The batters were not able to do anything about the pitching tactics of the Angles pitchers. The Red Sox ace pitcher Josh Beckett was hit to all corners of the stadium by the Angles hitters and he recorded 11 hits and 8 runs in the game. This result is sure to bring down the ticket sales of the forthcoming Red Sox games drastically.

The Boston Red Sox find themselves trailing the Tampa Bay Rays by 3 games in the AL East.  While there is still two months to go in a season, we know that now is the time to really get behind our Red Sox and cheer them to and through the postseason. The ultimate way to show our support is by actually going to Red Sox games and letting them know we are behind them 100%. That means getting decked out in our Boston gear and letting them hear us.  We have taken for granted to past for years as they have been a dominating force in the MLB. Now is the time to buy Boston Red Sox tickets and watch every game with the intensity that us fans love so much. Whether we are heading to Fenway or following them on the road, nothing gets our blood going like a night cheering on the Red Sox live.  The Red Sox have some tough games ahead especially because they finish the season with the Yankees.  So lets get together Red Sox nation and prepare ourselves for an exciting final two months of the regular season.

Ramirez has said that he will not interfere with the Red Sox management if they have any plans of trading him. He said that his job is to play baseball and that he will be able play in any team that offers him a good package. Manny Ramirez has scored 16 home runs this season and his record speaks volumes about his abilities to destroy an opposition on a given day. The Red Sox fans will be hoping that no such traded off occurs and will be buying tickets to watch Manny hit many more hefty blows in Red Sox colors.

A nostalgic day in history for Red Sox - 21st July 1958 - this was the day when one of the most successful outfielders for the Red Sox David Lee Henderson, a.k.a Dave Henderson was born. After playing his first six seasons with the Mariners, he along with Spike Owen was traded in exchange for four players and cash with the Boston Red Sox. Post the 1986 season Henderson soon became a household name amongst the Red Sox fans. Here’s again wishing the champion a very happy fifty years. The tickets for the Sox games are selling out fast.

David “Big Papi” Ortiz got his first rehab assignment in an International League game between the Pawtucket Red Sox and Toledo Mud Hens. Ortiz put on quite a show in this game when he homered against Virgil Vasquez. He was put on the disabled list after June 3rd when he tore a tendon sheath in his left wrist. Ortiz should be back in the Major Leagues in no time and the fans cannot wait as they have already lined up to buy Red Sox tickets.

Drew hopeful to return Friday http://theredsoxfansite.com/2008/07/10/jd-drew-hopeful-to-return-friday/ http://theredsoxfansite.com/2008/07/10/jd-drew-hopeful-to-return-friday/#comments Thu, 10 Jul 2008 19:02:57 +0000 admin http://theredsoxfansite.com/2008/07/10/jd-drew-hopeful-to-return-friday/ jd-drew-grand-slam-alcs-2007.jpg

J.D. Drew was forced to leave Tuesday night’s game with back stiffness just before the 9th inning.  Drew did not start Wednesday and with an off day Thursday, the Red Sox are hoping to have the left hander back in action on Friday.  Boston manager Terry Francona opted to keep Drew out of the lineup for the day game Wednesday as he does not want to make the situation worse for Drew.  Drew’s back has been an issue that began the very first game of the season when he was forced to be taken out of the lineup prior to game.  Drew is having a great season to the enjoyment of Red Sox fans and he was selected to the All-Star game on July 15th.  Fans have been pouring into Fenway to catch their Red Sox pursue another World Series Championship.
