Who is he and where did he come from?Caleb Durbin is an infielder who played college baseball at D-3 Washington University (in St. Louis) and was drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the 14th round of the 2021 draft. He was traded from Atlanta to the Yankees after the 2022 season for Lucas Luetge, and then again to Milwaukee after the 2024 season as part of a package that landed Devin Williams. A year later, Durbin comes to the Red Sox from the Brewers, along with fellow infielders Anthony Siegler and Andruw Monesterio and the 67th draft pick (Comp B),…

DUXBURY — When it comes to competing in the Patriot League, teams can never take nights off. This is especially true with boys’ basketball. Thanks to a great performance from Seth Hall, Whitman-Hanson was able to win a nail-biter on the road Tuesday. The senior guard finished with a game-high 14 points, as the Panthers closed things on a late 10-0 run en route to knocking off rival Duxbury. “If you’re going to end the game on that kind of a run, it’s going to happen on the defensive end of the floor,” said Whitman-Hanson coach Bob Rodgers. “That’s what…
BOSTON (WHDH) – Red Sox Spring training got underway Tuesday morning, with all of the team’s pitchers and catchers reporting to JetBlue Park at Fenway South in Fort Myers, Florida.The Red Sox improved their pitching staff over the off season with the additions of Ranger Suárez, Sonny Gray, and Johan Oviedo. The Sox signed free agent Suárez to a $130 million, five-year contract in January. The team acquired 36-year-old Gray in a trade with the St. Louis Cardinals, sending that team righty Richard Fitts and another prospect. The Red Sox acquired Oviedo from the Pittsburg Pirates in a five-player deal…
One thing you can’t say about this Boston Red Sox roster is that it doesn’t have enough depth. By adding big-name free agent Wilson Contreras and trading for third baseman Caleb Durbin just before Spring Training, the Red Sox have turned portions of last year’s lineup into high-quality bench players. While the starting nine seems to have filled out nicely, free agent acquisition Isiah Kiner-Falefa told the media that he is looking forward to helping out in every way he can as a utility player on this season’s roster. He said he embraces the not-so-sexy role. “Not many people can…

FORT MYERS, Fla. – Few players reported to spring training this week more eager for a fresh start than new Red Sox utility-man Isiah Kiner-Falefa. Last October, the Blue Jays were as close to a championship as a team can be: Game 7, the bases loaded with one out in the bottom of the ninth, a chance to walk off and bring Toronto its first World Series trophy since 1993. Then, Daulton Varsho grounded a ball to Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Miguel Rojas, and the throw to catcher Will Smith was just in time to nail the pinch-running Kiner-Falefa. Upon…
Boston is set to roll out the welcome mat for soccer fans from around the globe for the World Cup, while the town hosting the premier event is threatening to withhold an essential license. Boston’s City Hall Plaza has been selected as the official FanFest site for the seven World Cup matches scheduled at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro between June 13 and July 9. Officials organizing festivities around the global soccer spectacle say they expect the tournament to bring in over 2 million international visitors to Massachusetts. City Hall Plaza will be a primary gathering spot for fans to watch…
In one of the least surprising Boston Red Sox news items on Tuesday, manager Alex Cora revealed that ace left-hander Garrett Crochet will start the team’s Opening Day game against the Cincinnati Reds on March 26. Crochet also toed the rubber for the Red Sox’s season-opener last year, which means that the 2025 AL Cy Young runner-up will join a very short and impressive list of hurlers to start Opening Day in each of his first two campaigns with Boston. “Garrett Crochet will be the 4th pitcher to start Opening Day in each of his first two seasons with Red…
FOXBORO — Adjust your mock drafts accordingly: Mike Vrabel says the Patriots aren’t changing positions on left tackle Will Campbell. In a back-and-forth with reporters on Tuesday, Vrabel was asked about Campbell and his play this season. The rookie left tackle allowed 14 pressures in the Super Bowl, according to NextGen Stats, and Drake Maye’s pass-protection group struggled throughout New England’s 29-13 loss in Super Bowl 60. “Will’s 22 years old,” Vrabel said. “He’s our left tackle. He’ll get better. He’ll get stronger. There were moments where he played well, moments where he blocked the guy. There’s plays he’d like…
CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy (AP) — At one end of the ice was the brother, pumping his fists. At the other was the sister, jumping up and down with her broom in her hand and a look of disbelief on her bespectacled face. Isabella and Rasmus Wranå, Sweden’s first-ever team of siblings at the Winter Olympics, won gold in mixed doubles curling on Tuesday night, beating U.S. pair Cory Thiesse and Korey Dropkin. The Wranås persevered through a nailbiter of a championship game in front of a spirited, pro-U.S. crowd and pounced on an opening left by the Americans in the…
