Holy Buckets! By this time next week, the Sox will be back at Fenway, and getting ready to take the field for the Opening Day Festivities, playing the last team they played last year–in the ALCS Game 7 loss to Tampa Bay. I just wish the 1st pitch was not at freaking 2:05pm…. Jon Lester, […]

From here on out, the Sox will be playing baseball–only spring training, but as Opening Day is ONLY!) DAYS AWAY–Whooo Hoo–DO and Rem Dawg await!
