Over the Monster, a Boston Red Sox community

Hi Red Sox Nation! I am a student at Bentley and have created a 10 question survey about Fenway for class. It takes about 2 minutes. I'd appreciate any feedback. Go SOX!

The days of Pedro Martinez, Jason Varitek and the rest of the '04 crew, save for David Ortiz. That season was full of intensity between the Red Sox and Yankees. These days, there appears to be none. It needs to get back to the "best rivalry in sports".

Jarrod Saltalamacchia was not selected to the 2012 All Star team, despite strong offensive numbers this season. Did the fans get it wrong or have Mauer, Napoli and Wieters been the better catchers this season?

Through three starts since Josh Beckett went to the disabled list, Franklin Morales has overpowered opposing teams to the tune of a 24/3 K/BB ratio and 5 ER in 18 IP. Is there a chance the Rockies gave up too quickly on the 26 year old lefty? Could he be the ace the Red Sox have lacked this season?

The drama in Boston has always been overwhelming when it comes to sports, baseball in particular, but when is enough, enough?

Dustin Pedroia is hitting a measly .133 in the month of June, but as they say, "history repeats itself" and Pedey has a well established history that suggests his struggles won't last long.

The past couple weeks I've heard several times from fans that the Red Sox should "blow it up" and let the "kids" come up and take over. Would that be the right move? If so, what exactly should be blown up?

Clay Buchholz has posted a 1.45 ERA in his last four starts for the Red Sox after posting a mark over 9.00 in his first six. Why the drastic change?

The Chicago Cubs signed Cuban prospect Jorge Soler on Monday, according to sources.

In an article posted by Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe, the reporter says Bobby Valentine acknowledged that Franklin Morales is being stretched out because he thinks the reliever can start this season. Can he save the Red Sox rotation?
