Since making his MLB debut in 2023 Wilyer Abreu has established himself as one of the most promising all-around outfielders in baseball. But through three big league seasons there’s one thing the 26-year-old still hasn’t done, which is prove he can hit left-handed pitching. Next year, the Red Sox hope that can change. Speaking to reporters at the MLB Winter Meetings in Orlando, both manager Alex Cora and chief baseball officer Craig Breslow indicated that they expect Abreu will get more opportunities against lefties in 2026. “We have to see if they can do it, it’s about that time. Especially…

The past few days have been absolutely chaotic for the Indianapolis Colts, especially with starting quarterback Daniel Jones sidelined for the rest of the season due to a torn Achilles. Jones will become a free agent at the end of the season. Even if the Colts decide to re-sign him, they will likely need to bring in another quarterback who can start until Jones is ready to return. Tyler Drake from Arizona Sports.com thinks Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray could be a good fit. He also named former Patriots quarterback Mac Jones as a possible option. “Mac Jones, who is likely…

ORLANDO, Fla. – The Chris Sale chapter in Boston Red Sox history officially closed Tuesday afternoon with the trade of infielder Vaughn Grissom to the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for outfield prospect Isaiah Jackson. When the Red Sox acquired Grissom, now 24, from the Atlanta Braves on Dec. 30, 2023, they expected him to be their everyday second baseman. They raved about the power potential, recalling how he blasted a two-run homer over the Green Monster when he debuted with the Braves on Aug. 10, 2022. Instead, a groin injury derailed Grissom’s Red Sox tenure before the end of…

With Kyle Schwarber reportedly off the board after re-signing with the Phillies and Pete Alonso still surfacing in rumors, the Red Sox are laying out all their options. That includes free-agent slugger Eugenio Suárez, the Boston Globe’s Alex Speier wrote Tuesday from MLB Winter Meetings in Orlando. Suárez reportedly came up in conversations and is being viewed as a “fallback option” should the Red Sox not retain third baseman Alex Bregman or sign Alonso, who could play first base and serve as a designated hitter. Check out this except from Speier: Schwarber stood alongside Pete Alonso (38 homers in 2025)…
While it’s true that I’ve never been the biggest Alex Bregman fan, I promise my affinity for wanting BoBichette to fill out the Red Sox’s infield next season is not due to bias from that (mostly).Similar to last year, this year’s Winter Meetings have started out slow and arduous, with plenty of rumors and rumblings but no solidity to come out of them. The talk around Bichette and the Red Sox has remained relatively vague (as have most things, at this point), but even the proliferation of these rumors has me excited. Admittedly, I probably will never be fond of…
ORLANDO, Fla. – The Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees have butted heads in a plethora of ways over the last 125 years. This time, it’s a ‘He said, he said’ between new Red Sox starter Sonny Gray and longtime Yankees general manager Brian Cashman. Gray revisited his miserable tenure with the 2017-18 Yankees last week in his first Red Sox press conference, saying, “I never wanted to go there in the first place … it feels good to me to go to a place now where, you know what, it’s easy to hate the Yankees.” On Sunday night,…
The Bay State Conference has had a boys soccer team make it to the state final every year since 2018. It was Natick’s turn to do so this season and the Redhawks made sure they didn’t leave empty-handed. Natick captured its first Division 1 state title in program history with a thrilling 3-2 victory over St. John’s Prep. All-American Luke Dougherty spearheaded the Redhawks all season and Cole Boggis turned in a memorable performance in the state final by registering three points, including netting the game-winning goal with eight minutes to play. In Division 2, Sharon ended Oliver Ames’ reign…
In Jayson Tatum’s absence, Jaylen Brown is stepping into the limelight. The Boston Celtics forward is dominating on the court this season, specifically in terms of scoring the rock and generating defensive attention when playing off the ball. During a recent episode of the “Game Theory” podcast, host Sam Vecenie broke down the improvements Brown is showing in his game this season. “Jaylen Brown is leveling up as a ball handler a little bit,” Vecenie said. “They’re basically running the same actions that they would run for Tatum for brown. Sometimes they’ll throw him the ball on the block and…
