Sun, Dec 14 | Over the Monster
Casey KellyLots of talk by scouts and agents who watched him play at Sarasota (Fla.) High. Said one former major league player turned agent, "This kid is a phenomenal athlete.

Opinion: Interview With Sea Dogs Pitching Coach Mike Cather, Part Three

S1F: I know we’re running short on time, but before you have to go I wanted to ask a question or two about Justin Masterson. The Boston media has been engaged in a debate about his role in the future – as a starter or a reliever? What do you think?

Opinion: Their Never Ending Obsession With Curses

If the Yankees sign Manny Ramirez, I can't wait to see him in pinstripes. Manny will be Manny, and if the Yankees can adjust, he will help get them into the World Series.

ALCS Preview: Red Sox and Rays -- to the death

The Boston Red Sox versus the best team in the American League East, the Tampa Bay Rays. There is no doubt in my mind that this is one of the best ALCS match-ups I've seen in recent history. Something about this rivalry just makes it stand out.

Opinion: Drew's HR beats K-Rod, Angels, 7-5

K-Rod after JD Drew's home run in the ninth inning. (via d.yimg.com) 7-5, Red Sox. But more importantly it's 2-0 Red Sox in the series. The Sox are heading back to Boston to try and put the final touches on the ALDS. That isn't the Sox. The Sox wanted to win this game. I hope the Angels are ready for it.
