As the 2024 season winds down, there's a common refrain on national broadcasts, visiting broadcasts, and even NESN's broadcasts: the Red Sox have not been a good defensive team this season. With Bos...2063Fri, 06 Sep 2024 10:50:00 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/is-jarren-duran-the-red-soxs-newest-superstar-r2019/Jarren Duran hit the ground running in 2024 and hasn't looked back.

I like to watch the opponent's broadcasts of Red Sox games for a few reasons. First, if anyone besides Lou Merloni is in the booth, I find Dave O’Brien insufferable. Second, it is nice to...2017Tue, 27 Aug 2024 20:32:26 +0000https://talksox.com/news-rumors/boston-red-sox/what-do-the-red-sox-see-in-joely-rodriguez-r2015/It's hard to figure out what the front office likes about left-handed pitcher Joely Rodriguez. When left-hander Joely Rodriguez broke camp with the Red Sox, it was a surprise to fans and beat writers alike.
