TORONTO -- Clearly, the Boston bats had no trouble clearing customs. And to say Jarren Duran was a tone-setter when he belted the third pitch of Tuesday night’s game at Rogers Centre over the wall in right field would be an understatement.

The Washington Nationals are on the clock. OK, not quite yet, but they do have the No. 1 pick in this year’s Draft, and MLB Pipeline has an updated and expanded Draft Top 150, ranking the players all 30 teams are criss-crossing the country to see to line up their

Could the AL East have five teams finish .500 or better? Is the NL East a two-way tussle between the Mets and Phillies or will the Braves find a way to make it a three-legged race? And in the NL West, the Dodgers are the favorites to win the division,

What a difference one year -- and one or more players -- can make. The seven teams below really scuffled offensively at a certain position in 2024, but now they are flying high at that same spot in 2025. Whether it's due to the performance of a newcomer or a

CLEVELAND -- Manager Alex Cora has been trying his hardest this season to find at-bats for Rob Refsnyder due to the Red Sox facing off against so many right-handed pitchers. On Sunday, the right-handed-hitting Refsnyder and the Red Sox finally got a chance to face off against a left-hander. He

CLEVELAND -- A strong weekend from Jarren Duran ended on a sour note in Cleveland on Sunday when he was involved in an incident with a fan in the middle of the seventh inning of Boston’s 13-3 win. It occurred after the top of the inning, when the Red Sox

The prospect performances that stood out Sunday across the Minor Leagues involved big names (like Marcelo Mayer and Matt Shaw) going yard and big arms (like Jacob Misiorowski) racking up a lot of strikeouts. Not to mention Arjun Nimmala, who has put a little home run streak together at High-A.

CLEVELAND -- The third inning of Game 2 of the Red Sox’ 7-3 win over the Guardians in the nightcap of Saturday’s doubleheader was the perfect encapsulation of how dangerous Jarren Duran can be.

CLEVELAND -- Alex Cora’s 1,000th game as the Red Sox's manager had a little bit of everything. It started with a barrage of rain on Friday that forced a doubleheader on Saturday -- and forced Cora to wait 18 hours to achieve his milestone. And while it came in the

After more than two years and three injuries, Lucas Giolito is finally on the cusp of making his Red Sox debut. The likely last hurdle came on Friday in a rehab start for Triple-A Worcester. The right-hander struck out four in 4 2/3 innings against the Syracuse Mets. He gave

CLEVELAND -- The Guardians and Red Sox were expected to be in the national spotlight Friday night on Apple TV+. Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans. The opener of the weekend set between Cleveland and Boston at Progressive Field was postponed by rain. The clubs will instead play a split

BOSTON – Getaway day with Garrett Crochet on the mound. Confidence beamed throughout the clubhouse that a happy flight to Cleveland loomed for the Red Sox. But something unexpected happened on Thursday afternoon: Boston’s new ace lefty had a complete struggle with command, particularly in the first two innings.

A number of Top 100 prospects proved worthy of their rankings at the plate and on the mound, while one ended a game with a memorable moment ... and a bat flip. Andrew Painter took another positive step forward on his path back from Tommy John surgery while an unranked

BOSTON -- When Kristian Campbell takes the field with the Red Sox on Thursday to close out this seven-game homestand, it will mark the four-week anniversary of his Major League debut. And what an action-packed first month it has been in the Majors for MLB Pipeline’s No. 6 prospect (Boston’s

It’s been two weeks since our first Starting Pitcher Power Rankings of the regular season, and a lot can change in that time. While the rankings, based on a formula constructed by MLB.com’s data team, consider pitchers’ performance over the past 365 days, more weight is placed on recent performance.

When discussing the fastest prospects (and frankly, all players) in baseball, there’s the Rays’ Chandler Simpson and then there’s everyone else. Now in the big leagues, Simpson has led scouts to say that he should get at least a 90 run grade on the 20-to-80 scouting scale. Watching him do
