Brandon Moss has an excellent rehab

Outfielder Brandon Moss is making his way through a rehab assignment after getting an emergency appendectomy on May 3rd (link). Last night he had a three-homer game for Triple-A Pawtucket. He is hitting a blazing .415 in his last 10 games down in Rhode Island. The Sox can put him back on the active roster [...]

Eric Gagne actually helped the Sox

They’ve called up pitcher Chris Smith. There wasn’t really any other move they could make thanks to the doubleheader against the Brewers yesterday [...]
