There will be no further comment at this time,” a Fox Sports spokesman told The Associated Press on Friday.Sanchez has been off the air since police said he was stabbed during a fight with a truck driver outside an Indianapolis hotel on Oct. 4.

New York Yankees outfielder Trent Grisham was one of thirteen MLB players this week to receive the $22.025 million qualifying offer. This means that Grisham can accept the offer and be paid that amount in 2026 with no future guarantees, or he can decline the offer and enter free agency. It’s uncommon for players to accept the qualifying offer, as they far more often than not prefer to test the market and seek a richer deal, and for multiple years. Only six players have accepted the qualifying offer over the past five offseasons. According to MLB Network’s analyst Sean Casey,…

A total of 13 players were given the roughly $22 million offer for…

If you want to feel good about your Bruins’ recent run of success, it’s OK. Enjoy the moment. There’s more to like at the moment than after their three-game win streak to start the season. After winning their fifth straight on Thursday, they sit two games over .500 at 9-7 and they’re in the top of half of the league for goals scored per game (3.19, 14th), something few people would have guessed was possible before the season. But while the scoring for this team will most likely wax and wane throughout the season, a much more important development is…

Lucas Giolito apparently could have told everyone all along how the Boston Red Sox would handle his contract situation. The starting pitcher declined the player side of his $19 million mutual for 2026 after a bounce-back campaign in Boston. Following that move, the Red Sox decided not to issue Giolito a one-year, $22 million qualifying offer. Some uncertainty persisted over whether the Red Sox would extend the qualifying offer, which would have given them a chance to receive a compensatory draft pick if Giolito rejected it and signed with another team. Giolito, however, said on the “Baseball Isn’t Boring” podcast…

ORLANDO — The latest “Only Joe Mazzulla” story came courtesy of Celtics guard Derrick White. On this week’s episode of his “White Noise” podcast, White shared an anecdote about Mazzulla playing machine gun noises over the Auerbach Center speakers at the start of one Celtics practice. “It was me and Payton (Pritchard),” White recalled. “We’re going, and Joe is like, ‘Play the music!’ And the next thing you know, it’s just machine guns going off. I’m like, ‘What is going on?’ The entire time we did this drill, the machine guns were going off, and that’s how we started practice.…

Jaylen Brown came out with his hair on fire Wednesday night at TD Garden. After a frustrating finish for Brown in Boston’s loss to the Utah Jazz on Monday night, the Celtics star was a man on a mission Wednesday against the Washington Wizards.

Despite not sitting the entire fourth quarter, Brown racked up 35 points on 8 for 12 shooting to go along with…
