The numbers aren’t terrible, but they don’t exactly inspire confidence in the team’s approach, either. Boston sits a...3163Sat, 18 Apr 2026 12:05:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/trading-places-should-a-trevor-story-marcelo-mayer-position-swap-be-on-the-red-soxs-radar-r3173/If you were to ask a Boston Red Sox fan to give you a list of some of their top contributing factors to the team's massively underwhelming start to the season, it would be a safe bet that the play of Trevor Story would fall near the top of every single one. Now, if you asked those same people to...3173Fri, 17 Apr 2026 10:59:01 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/never-trust-the-numbers-greg-weissert-turning-season-around-following-homer-laden-start-r3169/The start of the 2026 season has not been a great one for the Boston Red Sox's middle relief corps, but especially not for Greg Weissert. In eight appearances this season, Weissert has given up homers in three of them -- including a three-run homer in the sixth inning against Eugenio Suarez and...3169Thu, 16 Apr 2026 13:07:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/the-red-sox-still-have-a-trevor-story-problem-r3168/I was really hoping that I wouldn’t have to start writing my essays on Trevor Story’s lack of production for the Boston Red Sox again this season. I didn’t want to highlight his glaring offensive issues, his mounting errors, or the fact that he shouldn’t be anywhere near the number two spot in t...3168Thu, 16 Apr 2026 10:53:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/how-willson-contreras-selective-approach-is-driving-early-success-r3170/Amid a slow start for the Boston Red Sox, veteran first baseman Wilson Contreras has emerged as an unlikely hero while the majority of the lineup struggles at the plate. In a recent series win against his former team, the St. Louis Cardinals, Contreras continued his strong start, going 4-for-5 w...3170Wed, 15 Apr 2026 10:50:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/wilyer-abreu-is-one-of-the-most-valuable-players-in-baseball-r3166/Wilyer Abreu was quiet this past weekend in St. Louis. But through two and a half weeks, his 2026 campaign has been anything but.  Entering this offseason, there were a lot of question marks about the Boston Red Sox offensive outlook moving forward. When the front office left a handful of t...3166Tue, 14 Apr 2026 21:05:01 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/is-caleb-durbins-bad-start-just-that-or-a-sign-of-things-to-come-for-the-red-sox-r3167/By the time the Boston Red Sox traded with the Milwaukee Brewers for infielder Caleb Durbin, the lineup already looked set in stone. Of course, at the time, there was belief Romy Gonzalez, who had a career-best .305 average with a 123 wRC+ last year, would be a part of that. It turned out, the u...3167Tue, 14 Apr 2026 10:57:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/red-sox-week-in-review-boston-takes-control-of-the-wheel-still-working-on-righting-the-ship-r3165/Red Sox Weekly Snapshot Record Last Week: 4-2 Runs Scored Last Week: 23 Runs Surrendered Last Week: 17 Standings:  5th in AL East 2 GB of 1st Place Transactions: 4/06/26: Red Sox activated RHP Garrett Whitlock from the paternity list. 4/06/26: Red Sox...3165Mon, 13 Apr 2026 23:35:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/kutter-crawford-begins-road-back-to-red-sox-with-mixed-outing-r3162/It's been a long road back to Boston for Kutter Crawford. This past Saturday, for the first time in 560 days, the 29-year-old right-hander took the mound in a professional baseball game. Crawford, who was a stalwart in the Red Sox's rotation in 2024, missed the entire 2025 season after first dea...3162Mon, 13 Apr 2026 10:51:01 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/forum-friday-a-shut-out-victory-questionable-abs-and-an-unlikely-bullpen-option-r3158/The Boston Red Sox concluded their first home stand of the season going 3-3 against the San Diego Padres and Milwaukee Brewers.

His first start against the Reds saw him post 5 1/3 innings pitched while g...3157Fri, 10 Apr 2026 10:56:02 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/the-red-soxs-bench-has-been-abysmal-could-two-familiar-faces-fix-that-r3156/The Boston Red Sox are in a tailspin at the moment. That’s not news to anyone who has even been sort of paying attention, but they are drastically underperforming for a team that a lot of national pundits had competing for the AL East title.
