The Boston Red Sox landed Garret Crochet last offseason, but could once again be searching for starting pitchers. Craig Breslow noted that if the team adds a starter, it will likely be one who can pitch near the top of their rotation. There are plenty of elite arms available in free agency, and the Red Sox should have their pick of stars. MLB Trade Rumors’ Tim Dierkes and Darragh McDonald both predicted the Red Sox would sign Dylan Cease. “Cease comes armed with a 97.1 mile per hour average fastball that ranked sixth among qualified starters this year,” MLB Trade…

By TIM REYNOLDS, AP Sports Writer CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Kai Trump knew more than a year ago that she wanted to go to the University of Miami and play golf for the Hurricanes. And the granddaughter of President Donald Trump never changed her mind. Miami announced that Kai Trump is part of its women’s golf signing class on Wednesday, the first day of the NCAA Division I signing window for most sports. She filled out the letter of intent last week in a ceremony at her high school — not far from her grandfather’s Mar-a-Lago estate in West…
After filling in for about 100 innings in 2024, the Red Sox quietly resigned Cooper Criswell as pitching depth in 2025. There’s no doubt that Criswell was useful with an ERA/FIP of 4.08/4.15. That’s solid production for the back of a rotation, to say nothing of a minor league depth guy. But depth is what Criswell was signed for and depth is what he provided. Unfortunately for him, when the Sox rotation looked like it might be one the verge of collapse after May (the month not the Dustin), Brayan Bello and Lucas Giolito both turned things around. There were…

When Luka Garza arrived in Boston this summer, Joe Mazzulla quickly realized something about the 6-foot-10 big man: This guy plays hard, all the time. Garza’s indefatigable effort couldn’t earn him a rotation role during his three seasons in Minnesota, but it’s made him a good fit for a Celtics team that’s emphasizing energy and aggressiveness. After Garza scored 14 points on 6-of-8 shooting and grabbed seven rebounds (including five offensive boards) in a 131-95 rout of the Grizzlies on Wednesday, Mazzulla raved about his ability to keep his motor running at full speed. “He’s been good, and I think…
The New England Patriots just beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a couple of days ago, but they will be back in action against the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football in Week 11. When they return to action, though, they will be without several key players.

In addition to them, tight end Austin Hooper will miss this game with a concussion. One guy whose status is…

The Patriots’ Week 11 matchup with the Jets already looked like a layup early in the season. Things have only gotten significantly worse for the Jets in the last two weeks. The Jets traded away two of their best players in cornerback Quinnen Williams and cornerback Sauce Gardner. And now wide receiver Garrett Wilson is expected to miss weeks with a knee injury. Here’s what we’re watching as the Patriots look to avoid a trap game: • The Patriots should be daring the Jets to throw the ball. Load the line of scrimmage. Stay in the base defense all game.…
WESTWOOD — When first-year Franklin head coach Chris Ridolfi took over the Panthers, the players he inherited made it abundantly clear to him that their goal was to make it to the state volleyball final. As lofty as that might have seemed, it came to fruition for fifth-seeded Franklin on Wednesday night at Westwood High’s Bader Gymnasium. The Panthers received standout performances from seniors Makayla Kuykendall and Olivia Alberti to end the Cinderella run of No. 16 Newton South with a 3-0 (25-16, 25-13, 25-16) sweep and advance to the state final for the first time in program history. Newton…
Boston Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet had his best season yet in 2025, but it wasn’t quite enough to prevent Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal from winning another American League Cy Young Award. Crochet’s stellar campaign made things interesting, but Skubal still captured his second straight AL Cy Young fairly easily. After winning the award unanimously in 2024, Skubal received 26 of 30 possible first-place votes this time around, with the other four going to Crochet. Crochet received 26 second-place votes, with the other four going to Skubal. Both finished first or second on every ballot, so it truly was…
