There were certainly times during the Boston Red Sox' late-season meltdown where some players didn't really seem to care all that much about it. Some folks around the Red Sox have since admitted that and designated hitter David Ortiz is just the latest, though he's making sure people know that ...

Going into the season, I had very high expectations for the Boston Red Sox - and I am not a Red Sox fan. Right now, Boston has a losing record (13-14) and sits 6.5 games back of the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East and six games behind the ...
