Worcester: W, 8-5 (BOX SCORE) After almost two years of rehab, Patrick Sandoval is back. The idea of paying someone fresh off of Tommy John surgery $18 million to rehab has been met with plenty of criticism, but Sandoval’s 529 strikeouts in 536 career innings with an ERA just over 4 can provide some stability […]

One year ago, the New England Patriots used their first-round selection in the NFL Draft to pick an offensive tackle. Fast forward 12 months, and we might find ourselves in the same situation yet again. What gives? While Will Campbell was brought aboard fourth overall last season to become the team’s left tackle of the […]
The New England Patriots have made big investments in their interior defensive line each of the last two offseasons. First, they signed Christian Barmore to a massive contract extension; then, they added Milton Williams on a $104 million free agency pact. This offseason, meanwhile, has been relatively quiet. No big free agents were added to […]
All winter long, the buzzword about the Red Sox pitching rotation was “depth.” But a few weeks into the season, that depth hasn’t shown up yet, with the rotation looking top-heavy and overly reliant on Garrett Crochet and Sonny Gray. (Alex Speier, Boston Globe) But if you have to be top-heavy in the rotation, it […]
The San Diego Padres had a happy flight home from their first road trip of the season after an 8-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday. That win capped a six-game road trip through Boston and Pittsburgh that saw the Padres take two games from the Red Sox and two games from the Pirates. […]
When Mike Vrabel met with reporters at the NFL annual meeting in Arizona in late March, news recently broke that his New England Patriots would be featured on the HBO documentary series Hard Knocks in 2027. Naturally, he was asked for a reaction. It had just a tad of a sarcastic undertone. “Can’t wait,” Vrabel […]
We’re still just just a dozen games into the young season, but already the DNA of the 2026 Red Sox is taking shape. They’ve got a lineup that doesn’t have enough power, a defense that is somehow both above average at taking away runs while also being well below average at avoiding mistakes, and a […]
With the Red Sox headed to St. Louis this weekend, it’s a good time to reflect on what these two franchises mean to the history of MLB and how much their reputations have decayed in recent years. The Red Sox haven’t won a division title in eight years and haven’t hosted a playoff game at […]
Duke great JJ Redick stirred things up a while back when he said guys like Boston Celtic Bob Cousy were “plumbers and firemen” in the off-season and couldn’t play in today’s NBA. He had a point to an extent: although Cousy had phenomenal court vision, he was small by today’s standards, and if you watch […]
The 2026 NFL Draft is less than three weeks away as the New England Patriots continue the process of finishing their board. Things will look quite different for the team this draft picking 31st overall after back-to-back years selecting in the top-five.

The Celtics’ top-6 is set in stone. Tatum, Brown, White, Pritchard, Queta, and Hauser will play in every single playoff matchup. After that is where things get interesting. A few weeks ago, Luka Garza and Hugo Gonzalez seemed well-positioned to be the first big and wing off the bench. Now, it feels more likely that […]
In a tightly contested game, Jaylen Brown led the Boston Celtics to a victory over the surging Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday night. Charlotte led for most of the game, but Boston finally managed to break through at the end of the third quarter, and they didn’t look back from there, securing a 113-102 win. The […]
The New England Patriots have spent this offseason rearranging the interior of their offensive line. Those changes included trading veteran Garrett Bradbury to allow Jared Wilson to move back to his natural center position, and then signing Alijah Vera-Tucker to a three-year deal in free agency to play left guard. Even with Ben Brown under […]

NEW YORK CITY — The Celtics could be shorthanded when they face the New York Knicks on Tuesday night. Jaylen Brown (left Achilles tendinitis), Sam Hauser (low back spasm), Neemias Queta (right toe sprain), and Derrick White (right knee contusion) are all questionable to play. The Celtics are on the first night of a back-to-back, […]
Box Score It ends up being just a .500 road trip for the Brewers across Kansas City and Boston as Milwaukee dropped the rubber match Wednesday afternoon against the Red Sox, 5-0. Sonny Gray had the goods from the beginning. The Brewers were able to get some traffic on the bases against him, but could […]
After a short stint in Providence where he got to show what he could do against professionals, the Bruins announced on Wednesday afternoon that they’ve signed James Hagens to his entry-level contract (ELC).
