How the 76ers exposed Celtics’ drop coverage
For the first time this season, the Celtics allowed their opponents an efficiency above 70% on both layups and floaters. This wasn’t caused by a high transition volume, but rather by a half-court defensive collapse. The Sixers posted a 1.19 points-per-possession efficiency in non-transition situations, their third-highest mark of the season. Only Washington and Chicago […]

Clement Homers, Jays Beat Red Sox
Red Sox 1 Blue Jays 8 That turned into a surprisingly comfortable win. I didn’t think Eric Lauer looked great today, lots of deep fly balls finding gloves, but he only allowed one run in his 4.1 innings, on a Willson (who puts two L’s in Wilson?) Contreras home run. He gave up 5 hits, […]
Blue Jays 8, Red Sox 1; No run prevention or production
The Red Sox have lost the quick-flash momentum of the managerial change already. Chad Tracy fell to 2-2 as the interim after another poor starting pitching outing and insufficient run production.

Ben Roethlisberger not sold on new Steelers QB Drew Allar
The Pittsburgh Steelers made one of the biggest splashes of the NFL Draft, selecting quarterback Drew Allar out of Penn State in the third round. Allar was at one point projected to be a first-round pick before a disappointing 2025 campaign that ended midway through the season when he suffered a season-ending ankle injury. The […]

Giants add RHP Gregory Santos, option Blade Tidwell
The last vestiges of the Eduardo Nunez trade from 2017 exist in the form of reliever Gregory Santos, whom the Boston Red Sox signed as an amateur free agent allllll the way back in 2015. It wouldn’t be until 2021 that he’d make his major league debut with the San Francisco Giants and after 5.2 […]
