What to Expect From Us in 2009

Pitchers and catchers are reporting to Fort Myers signifying the beginning of a new baseball season.  It also signifies a new season here at PawSox Blog.

We began this site last year in an attempt to provide coverage of the PawSox that was a bit different from what was being done in the mainstream press.  Although we did provide game coverage of the team, we did incorporate other elements that others did not.  It included full audio interviews with Manager Ron Johnson, players in the clubhouse, and visitors from Boston.

In preparing for the 2009 season, our goal is to be even more innovative than last year.  Expect more podcasting, both through audio and video.  We hope to develop more features about the players, coaches, and staff of the PawSox.  We will keep an eye on players at the lower levels of the Red Sox organization as they prepare to make their way through the system to McCoy.  We will also be doing more to inform you about the players from the rest of the International League.

As excited as I am to get going, it must be emphasized that operating this site is a part-time venture.  The demands of my job and family take precedence, so there will be stretches when there will be lapses in coverage.  I will do my best to keep these to a minimum.

I want to hear from you on ways we can cover the team better.  Contact me with your ideas.  Here’s to a successful 2009…both for the PawSox and PawSox Blog!
