Over the Monster, a Boston Red Sox community

A couple of future major-league outfielders spent the majority of their seasons with the Pawtucket Red Sox.

With Will Middlebrooks promoted, the corners in Pawtucket lacked real prospects much of 2012.

Mauro Gomez hits well even when he doesn't, J.C. Linares is starting to feel the difference between Triple-A and Double-A pitching, and Chris Hernandez is just one step from the majors.

Zach Stewart has been succeeding in Pawtucket despite a lack of ground outs or strikeouts, Alex Wilson has been dominant in relief, and Lars Anderson might be in his last few weeks with the Red Sox.

Che-Hsuan Lin starts to finally hit, Junichi Tazawa keeps on pitching well despite his relocation, and Alex Hassan wishes there were similarly happy news to report.

There might have been call-ups already, but the Pawtucket Red Sox still have some players worth checking in on.

The Red Sox might need some help this year, and some of it is likely to come from this trio in Pawtucket.

John Maine has missed most of the last two years due to shoulder injuries, but if healthy, what can he be for the Red Sox?

The Pawtucket Red Sox are in the International League playoffs for the first time since 2008, taking on the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs in round one.

With roster expansion coming soon, who will the Red Sox be calling up to help them in their push for October baseball?
