Welcome back to baseball that matters! It truly is the first day of spring when you can toss the red exhibition jerseys aside and play baseball for real. It’s Garrett Crochet ready to knit it up on the mound against an old friend in Tito and the Reds. Let’s play ball! ⚾️ First Pitch: 4:10pm […]
With the MLB season in full swing and the Boston Red Sox playing in their Opening Day against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday, it brings me back to a story that has always fascinated me. The time Larry Bird played in a college baseball game for Indiana State University in 1979. This game saw Bird […]
Opening Day in Cincinnati has finally arrived! After a long winter where we were left to ponder whether the Cincinnati Reds, who actually snuck into the playoffs for a minute in 2025, were going to take a giant leap forward in 2026 as their roster entered a fourth full year together post-rebuild. Today, we get […]
When the Colorado Avalanche shook the foundation of their core by trading Mikko Rantanen for Martin Necas, Jack Drury, and picks, we should have felt a sense of de ja vu, but we didn’t. Intuition lost on many Avalanche fans and reporters alike (myself included). The Rantanen deal wasn’t the first time we’ve seen a […]
We’re back! For one afternoon. There there’s an off day. And then another game on Saturday. And at that point the baseball season will have successfully started like so many lawnmowers that sputter and make you pull the string a couple of times before they get going. (You probably don’t have to mow your lawn […]
As is tradition, we are pretty bad at this. That don’t mean we won’t keep trying until one of us gets it all correct! As we creep closer to opening day we get to display our optimism (some of us anyway) and predict how this upcoming season will unfold. As is customary, we split this […]
I suppose you could plaster the headline of this piece on pretty much any Opening Day post from any given year and you wouldn’t be completely wrong. But I can’t help but feel a little bit different about the 2026 Red Sox as the sun rises on a new season. This isn’t just the renewal […]
It’s just one game. However, against a fully healthy version of the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder, the Celtics proved that they are ready for any challenge. Everyone played their roles in the Celtics 119-109 win on Wednesday night. Jaylen Brown was the engine of the offense, Jayson Tatum was great playing out of the […]
The 2026 MLB season kicked off on Wednesday night when the San Francisco Giants hosted the New York Yankees. Today the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Guardians play their first of 162 games of the season, as the Reds host the Boston Red Sox, and the Guardians travel to Seattle to battle the Mariners. The goal […]
Record and Finish 95-67, first place in the AL East: The time is now! It’s not a perfect Red Sox team, but it’s the best Red Sox team they’ve fielded so far this decade, and its time for them to start making serious waves in the American League. There’s enough talent here where the goal […]
#1 – Jaylen at the wheel When you are on the road and the Thunder strikes, you need your driver at the wheel to get you through the storm. For the Boston Celtics, the man at the wheel has a name: Jaylen Brown. Despite the physical defense from the OKC Thunder, the 2024 Finals MVP […]
’Twas brillig on Jersey Street The fans roared loud and rumbled,In Fenway’s yard where the faithful played all eager, loud, and jumbled; The Green Monster looms in left field deep, its shadow cold and wide,It calls to every driven sweep, then sends it screaming back inside. “Beware the Sox, my son!” they cried, “you’ve heard the echo of that sound—Beware […]
Even though they did not go on another record-breaking spending spree like in 2025, the New England Patriots were still quite busy refurbishing their roster in this year’s NFL free agency. In all, a look at our Patriots Free Agency Tracker shows that they added 12 outside players since late February, re-signed two of their […]
After missing an abundance of practice time and 63 games on the court, the connection between Jayson Tatum and Neemias Queta looks like it hasn’t been affected. Following his return from injury, Tatum offered insight into the conversations he and Queta shared. “Me and Neemi had a little talk during the game,” he said. “We were just like, ‘man, this is our first day […]
Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have been together for nine NBA seasons. They have played 610 regular season games, 121 playoff games, 11 NBA Finals games, and of course, won the 2024 NBA championship together in 2024. With all of this success, some people will still tell you with a straight face that they aren’t […]
Well folks, we made it! The offseason is over and Red Sox baseball is about to begin anew this afternoon in Cincinnati. While we wait through the final few hours between the last Red Sox out of 2025 and the first pitch of 2026, let’s take a few moments to talk about our favorite Opening […]
As both Executive Vice President of Player Personnel Eliot Wolf and head coach Mike Vrabel said at the NFL Combine, the edge position is one of the biggest needs for the New England Patriots. Even after signing Dre’Mont Jones to a three-year deal on the first day of free agency, that remains true. Jones is […]
The New England Patriots have made their big moves in free agency, but they still continue adding to their roster. Among their latest signing was that of cornerback Kindle Vildor, who was brought in on a one-year, $1.4 million contract last week. Let’s grade the signing based on everything we know. Instant grades: Patriots sign […]
Despite fielding one of the best starting trios in football, the New England Patriots had a low-key need at the cornerback position in free agency. With Alex Austin not tendered as a restricted free agent and subsequently leaving for Miami, the depth behind Christian Gonzalez, Carlton Davis and Marcus Jones suddenly looked even shallower than […]
BOSTON — Jaylen Brown baited a foul on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, using the reigning league MVP’s signature move to get to the line with under eight minutes in the fourth quarter. It worked — and Brown cracked a smile on his way to the stripe. He called it “payback.” “He got me last time we played […]
In the Celtics 119-109 statement win over the Thunder, Joe Mazzulla went with a tight nine-man rotation. In what felt like a Finals preview, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown performed at a championship level against the defending champs after laying an egg on Sunday against the visiting Timberwolves. The game was speckled with some questionable […]
BOSTON — Baylor Scheierman never doubted he could do this. Not when he fell out of the rotation early on this season, not when he had a tough shooting stretch last Summer League in Las Vegas. The 25-year-old Celtics forward always saw this kind of success coming. “I’m super confident in my abilities,” Scheierman said […]
The Boston Celtics returned to TD Garden on Wednesday night for what felt like more than just another regular season game. With the Oklahoma City Thunder riding a 12-game win streak and holding the top spot in the Western Conference, this had all the makings of a measuring stick matchup, the kind that quietly starts […]
The Red Sox have released another former top international signing in 23-year-old outfielder Juan Chacon, according to Hunter Noll of Beyond the Monster. Chacon originally signed with Boston for $900,000 in July 2019, receiving the largest bonus of the club’s 2019-2020 international free agent class. The native Venezuelan had drawn praise as an amateur for … Continue reading "Red Sox release another top international signing after five seasons"
