It’s important to remember that baseball is a marathon, not a sprint. As a one-time marathon runner (no big deal), starting out too fast is a real concern. Just ask one-time marathon runner Jacob Roy, who went out too fast and ran the final six miles at about 10 minutes per mile after running the first 20 at a sub-seven pace.

On Sunday, Alex Cora was caught between the two.Following the 2-6 start, the Red…

Editor’s Note: In the lead-up to the 2026 NFL Draft, Phil Perry is identifying the best fits for the Patriots at each position based on the traits that Mike Vrabel and Eliot Wolf value, as well as intel from coaches and scouts.First up were offensive tackles, tight ends and edge defenders. Today’s installment: wide receivers. The Patriots’ receiver room is already relatively crowded. But could it become even more so on draft weekend? Deep as they may be at that position with free-agent addition Romeo Doubs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, DeMario Douglas and Kyle Williams, they are still without a…

But the 2026 Red Sox just aren’t going to scare many opposing pitchers.Yes, there is Roman Anthony. And in in the fifth inning he laced a triple…

Sure, a top-tier wide receiver could be found in the 2026 NFL Draft, but the Patriots have a lot of other roster weaknesses to address with their 11 picks. The most obvious trade target is A.J. Brown. The Philadelphia Eagles star wide receiver has been the subject of trade rumors for a while, but he hasn’t been dealt yet. Giving up a first-round pick in a potential Brown trade would be a…
