The cash-strapped Los Angeles Dodgers is being sold to a group spearheaded by basketball great Magic Johnson for a record $2 billion. And as the Boston Herald reports, that hefty price tag boosts the Boston Red Sox's value to $2.5 billion -- trailing only the New York Yankees as the world's priciest franchise. Former Boston businessman Frank McCourt had bought the Dodgers in 2004 for $430 million. As the Herald reports, McCourt may actually...

DUNEDIN, Fla. (AP) -- Daniel Bard is still getting used to starting instead of the relieving. "Today was the first day I could actually say I felt like a starting pitcher out there, not like a reliever starting," the Boston Red Sox pitcher said Sunday. There's still work to be done. Competing for a spot in Boston's starting rotation, Bard gave up five runs and six hits in six innings of a 6-5 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. "He...  

TORONTO (AP) — Kyle Drabek won for the first time since June, Edwin Encarnacion homered and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Boston Red Sox 7-3 Tuesday night.

TORONTO – Opening-season road trips don’t seem to agree with the Boston Red Sox. A year after losing their first six games to start the season, the Red Sox finished a 1-5 road trip with a 3-1 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday. “That’s not the road trip we want,” Boston manager Bobby Valentine said, “but we’ve got a homestand coming up and we’ll try to see if we can’t get things going in the right direction.” Ricky Romero outdueled Jon...

TORONTO (AP) — Opening-season road trips don't seem to agree with the Boston Red Sox. A year after losing their first six games to start the season, the Red Sox finished a 1-5 road trip with a 3-1 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday.  

Daniel Bard pitched surprisingly well, the Red Sox played (surprisingly?) poorly, and the result was a fourth loss and second blowout in five games. Bard did just about everything you could ask of a starter except, perhaps, for throwing his changeup. He struck batters out, didn't walk anyone until the sixth, induced a ton of ground balls, and maintained his velocity going late into the game. His slider was tight, loopy, or...  

TORONTO (AP) -- Bobby Valentine drummed his fingers angrily on his desk, still frustrated at a pitching change he hadn't made. More than any defeat in a disappointing April so far, this one was gnawing at the Red Sox manager. Kyle Drabek won for the first time since June, Edwin Encarnacion homered and the Toronto Blue Jays beat Boston 7-3 Tuesday night, spoiling right-hander Daniel Bard's first Red Sox start and dropping the Red Sox to 1-4...  

Why is there a press release about a move the Mets made in the Red Sox' own press release section? (Yes I know any mlb.com story will usually appear on all 30 teams' web sites, but each team has its own specific "releases" section and that's where this is. In the Mets' releases section, they show one of those players being called up, in the Red Sox' release, he's then sent down. If it is just a goof, isn't it weird that the Red Sox don't have...

Okay, MLB.TV has live video of this game (or is it some sort of replay that has me totally confused)? I don't see a game thread, so I figured I'd start one. I'm too lazy, however, to post the original line ups. Except that apparently I have to come up with at least 75 words, and I only had 46. I'm good at rambling, though, so feel pretty good about getting this filled up enough to post shortly.  

The Red Sox fell to the Blue Jays 9-2 Tuesday night behind an inconsistent effort from Daniel Bard and the bullpen. While Bard looked strong through his first inning of work, retiring the Jays in order on just eight pitches, the reliever-turned-starter seemed to lose it in the second, allowing two walks and a single to load the bases with zero outs. Predictably, Bard would not escape unharmed, surrendering two runs on a well-hit...  

Alfredo Aceves went six innings, striking out four and walking just two, but it wasn't enough to overcome a weak Blue Jays lineup today. Aceves did his part, limiting Toronto to just the two runs, and Justin Thomas allowed only one in relief, but that was one too many, as Boston's bats were quieted by Toronto's pitching. 21-year-old Drew Hutchison struck out two and scattered four hits and a walk while holding Boston to just one...

DUNEDIN, Fla. - Daniel Bard said after the Red Sox’ 6-5, 10-inning loss to the Blue Jays here Sunday that it was the first time he felt like a starter “rather than a reliever starting.’’ And manager Bobby Valentine, who had been somewhat critical of Bard’s last outing, agreed.

TORONTO (AP) — Bobby Valentine drummed his fingers angrily on his desk, still frustrated at a pitching change he hadn’t made. More than any defeat in a disappointing April so far, this one was gnawing at the Red Sox manager.  

Kyle Drabek displayed something Tuesday night that the Blue Jays have spent the better part of a year trying to teach the talented young pitcher. It’s a nuance known as “slowing the game down,” and it comes into play when a pitcher finds himself in a jam.
