The Boston Celtics have finally cooled off over the last week, but Jaylen Brown hasn’t. Despite losing their last two games, the Celtics are still 6-3 over their last nine games. Brown has been exceptional during that run, scoring at least 30 points in eight of those games. In the one game where he didn’t, he posted a triple-double. Over his last nine games, Brown is averaging 32.7 points, 7.0 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game while shooting 49.5 percent from the floor, 38.9 percent from beyond the arc and 76.5 percent from the charity stripe. Brown’s played stellar defense…

After losing — and hardly competing in — the Pete Alonso sweepstakes, the Boston Red Sox are still searching for a middle-of-the-order bat. St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Willson Contreras has emerged as an intriguing fallback option on the trade market. The Athletic’s Katie Woo recently reported that the Red Sox have shown “significant interest” in acquiring Contreras, a three-time All-Star who recently changed positions from catcher to first base. The 33-year-old has two years and $36.5 million remaining on his contract. Contreras’ bat isn’t on Alonso’s level, but the veteran is no slouch at the plate. The right-handed slugger slashed…

The Bruins were slow to boil on Tuesday but, as often happens at the Garden these days, they found a way to get the job done. After a shaky first period, the B’s shook off a one-goal deficit to get back on the winning track with a 4-1 win over the Utah Mammoth to improve their home record to 12-5. Morgan Geekie led the way with a pair of goals and Jeremy Swayman made 20 saves for the victory to kick off their five-game homestand. The B’s took a 2-1 lead into the third period and then took care of…

It seems like ages ago that Lucas Giolito declined his mutual option with the Boston Red Sox in early November and effectively ended his tenure in Boston. Giolito’s time with the Red Sox was very flawed, especially due to injury, but he ultimately put together a year to feel proud of in 2025. The Red Sox, with their stable of young arms, felt like moving on from the 31-year-old right-hander was the right move; hence their lack of interest in re-signing Giolito. Fair enough. But Giolito might still have some good years left in him to offer another club. On…

When it comes to free agency, the most useful tool most players possess against clubs calculating how to crush their value is the ability to wait things out for the entire winter. In fact, Scott Boras has made this his signature move over the last decade and a half, stretching things into spring training and, in some cases, even the regular season. (Remember the Stephen Drew saga?)But not every player has this luxury, and there are two in particular we should keep a close eye on over the next couple of weeks: Munetaka Murakami and Kazuma Okamoto. Both have been…

By COLLEEN BARRY, Associated Press MILAN (AP) — A wildlife photographer stumbled upon one of the oldest and largest known collections of dinosaur footprints, dating back about 210 million years to the Triassic Period, high in an Italian national park near the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympic venue of Bormio, officials announced Tuesday. The discovery in the Stelvio National Park was striking for the sheer number of footprints, estimated at as many as 20,000 over some 3 miles, and the location near the Swiss border, once a prehistoric coastal area, that has never previously yielded dinosaur tracks, experts said. “This…

MIAMI (AP) — FIFA slashed the price of some World Cup tickets for teams’ most loyal fans following a global backlash and some will get $60 seats for the final instead of being asked to pay $4,185. FIFA said Tuesday that $60 tickets will be made available for every game at the tournament in North America, going to the national federations whose teams are playing.

The Boston Red Sox have been busy on the trade market recently, and more moves could be made as they slow-play their work in free agency. One team that could be open for business is the San Diego Padres, as they are reportedly taking trade offers for several key players. Let’s look at three of those players and see if Boston should look to make a move for them. Mason Miller The Padres picked up Miller in a deal with the Athletics ahead of the trade deadline last season, but they already could be looking to move him. One of…
