Red Sox Notes: Short Outings Becoming Common Occurrence For Drew Pomeranz

Share this: The hope for a starting pitcher is to go deep into a ballgame and put your team in good position to win. Unfortunately for the Boston Red Sox, Drew Pomeranz hasn’t able to do that very often in the 2017 season. Pomeranz struggled through another short outing Friday night in the Red Sox’s 8-3 loss to the Detroit Tigers at Fenway Park. The left-hander only lasted 4 1/3 innings, allowing six runs (five earned) on eight hits with two walks. Since Boston traded for Pomeranz at the MLB All-Star break last season, the 28-year-old hasn’t been much of an innings eater. The lefty employs a rather slow pace on the mound and often tries to dance around the strike zone with off-speed pitches

Steven Wright, Drew Pomeranz Among Pitchers Vying For Rotation Spots

Each is an interesting case, mainly because they all are coming off injuries in the 2016 season.

Drew Pomeranz Focused On Being A Starting Pitcher In 2017 Season

Share this: The Boston Red Sox certainly bolstered their pitching staff in the offseason with the addition of Chris Sale, but there still are question marks when it comes to the back end of the rotation. One candidate for the No. 4 or 5 starter could be Drew Pomeranz, who the Red Sox acquired via trade last season. Pomeranz was an All-Star with the San Diego Padres in 2016, but he struggled upon his arrival to Boston. However, as spring training is officially underway, Pomeranz has put last season in the rear-view mirror and is focused on being a starting pitcher for the Red Sox in 2017. To hear what Pomeranz had to say about the upcoming season, check out the video above from

Clay Buchholz Trade A Necessary Move For Red Sox, But Rotation Questions Linger

Share this: The Boston Red Sox have traded Clay Buchholz. For some Red Sox fans, those eight words are cause for celebration. Despite his occasional brilliance, Buchholz long had been a source of frustration in Boston. After a scintillating start to the 2013 season — 7-2 record, 1.71 ERA in 12 starts — the right-hander missed three months with a neck strain, then saw his performance dip over a three-year stretch marred by injuries and inconsistency that saw him fall out of the rotation in 2016. That leads us to Tuesday, when the Red Sox traded their second longest-tenured player to the Philadelphia Phillies in return for a minor league second baseman. The move essentially was a salary dump, and one that Red Sox president

Here’s how it all went down. GAME IN A WORDHanley. When you score most of your team’s runs with two homers, you get to be the word of the game. IT WAS OVER WHEN …Koji Uehara finished out the ninth.
