About a month ago somebody told me that Rick Porcello was a Cy Young candidate and I scoffed. Porcello for Cy Young? No way! Well he’s 21-4 after a 4 hitter against Baltimore last night and has to be the front runner for the Cy Young. Now don’t get me wrong I’m much more into […]

by Bill Murphy I began working on this piece while covering last night’s Red Sox game at Fenway Park. Since the evening was feeling like one of those nights, just sitting there watching paint dry, why not start doing something of importance. The crowd of 37,767 was sitting on their hands with the home team […]
