Thu, 23 May 2013 07:43:25 -0700 Boston Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said the team hasn't had talks with OF Jacoby Ellsbury on a long-term deal.
Tue, 21 May 2013 16:28:37 -0700 Boston Red Sox manager John Farrell is sticking with OF Jacoby Ellsbury at leadoff even though he is 3-for-24 through seven games of the team's nine-game road trip. Farrell was considering dropping Ellsbury down, but OF Shane Victorino (hamstring) has been dealing with multiple injuries. Victorino is not in the lineup Tuesday, May 21. "We're sticking with (Ellsbury) to hopefully give him the opportunity to come out of the situation that he's in right now," Farrell said. "But I can say this: Whether he's hitting first or whether he's hitting somewhere else in the lineup, there are still things that we need to address, that he needs to address, and those are ongoing." Ellsbury has just three walks in his last nine games and hasn't homered in 162 at-bats, but Farrell doesn't think Ellsbury is swinging too hard. Fantasy Tip: Be patient with Ellsbury during his slump, and if you have to, sit him on the bench until he comes through it. As Scott Lauber points out, Ellsbury's power was slow to develop during his MVP-caliber 2011 season, as well, so there is still plenty of time for him to get his timing down.
Sun, 21 Apr 2013 18:31:14 -0700 Boston Red Sox OF Jacoby Ellsbury had at least one hit in each game of the doubleheader against the Kansas City Royals Sunday, April 21, pushing his hitting streak to 11 games.
Wed, 27 Mar 2013 10:40:49 -0700 Boston Red Sox OF Jacoby Ellsbury (ankle) did not need to undergo an MRI on his ankle injury. He is expected to be in the starting lineup Thursday, March 28. Fantasy Tip: It appears Ellsbury's injury is minor since he did not need an MRI. He could take things easy for the last few days of spring training but there is no indication that he will miss any regular season games.
Wed, 27 Mar 2013 05:38:31 -0700 Boston Red Sox OF Jacoby Ellsbury (ankle) is out of the lineup Wednesday, March 27, due to a jammed right ankle.
Sun, 24 Mar 2013 23:49:38 -0700 Updating a previous item, Boston Red Sox OF Jacoby Ellsbury (ankle) believes the ankle injury he suffered Sunday, March 24, is not serious and he should be back on the field by the middle of the week. "I'm sure we'll look at it tomorrow, but I feel good about it," Ellsbury said.
Sun, 24 Mar 2013 11:05:51 -0700 Boston Red Sox OF Jacoby Ellsbury (heel) left the game Sunday, March 24, because of a jammed right heel, which he suffered while returning to first base on a pickoff attempt.
Sat, 23 Mar 2013 18:53:08 -0700 Boston Red Sox manager John Farrell said he is not concerned about OF Jacoby Ellsbury not trying to steal bases during spring training because he knows that Ellsbury knows how to steal bases. "I think he's a pretty adept base stealer. I don't think he's lost a knack to steal bases or get reads on certain pitchers," Farrell said. "I'm confident he still has basestealing capability." Fantasy Tip: Ellsbury has been a terrific base stealer when he has been healthy in his career and should be able to contribute in that category again this season for owners.
Tue, 05 Mar 2013 19:59:13 -0800 Boston Red Sox OF Jacoby Ellsbury (virus) missed the Grapefruit League spring game Tuesday, March 5, due to a virus. The team sent him home after he showed up to the team's facility in the morning.
Thu, 21 Feb 2013 09:12:01 -0800 Boston Red Sox OF Jacoby Ellsbury is manager John Farrell's preferred leadoff hitter.
