To pay or not to pay, that is the question facing Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow. Masslive.com’s Sean McAdam reported Wednesday that the qualifying offer for pending free agents will be a record $22.05 million this winter. While most free agents are eligible, only a select few will actually receive the offer, which becomes a binding one-year contract if the player accepts it. McAdam reported the best Red Sox qualifying offer candidates are pitcher Lucas Giolito, outfielder Rob Refsnyder and reliever Justin Wilson. He also noted that the qualifying offer is much greater than what Refnsyder and…

With a week to go before the regular season, the Celtics entered Wednesday night’s preseason finale hoping for health above all else. That hope was extinguished midway through the first quarter, when Jaylen Brown grabbed at the back of his left leg and checked out of the game shortly thereafter. Brown headed straight to the locker room, and after a lengthy wait, the team announced that he was doubtful to return due to left hamstring tightness. While Brown did not return to the game — a surprisingly thrilling 110-108 win over the Raptors — head coach Joe Mazzulla expressed confidence…
FOXBORO — Mike Vrabel says his history there is unimportant. Interesting, he’ll admit, but unimportant. And it’s a clever deflection, we should admit. But come on. Do you really believe Vrabel’s return to Tennessee means nothing? That he wants anything less than to rub the Titans’ faces in their owner’s mistake this Sunday? And that his personal feelings, as the commanding leader of this organization, could ever be separated from the Patriots’ business? Of course, Vrabel won’t admit to chasing revenge, but anyone remotely familiar with him knows that’s exactly what he wants because that’s part of who he is.…
LYNN – Despite the cold wind blowing through Manning Field on Wednesday evening, St. Mary’s brought the heat to win 2-0 over Catholic Central League boys soccer foe Bishop Stang. Bishop Stang (6-5-4) put up a strong fight, and for the majority of the match it seemed like anyone’s game as St. Mary’s (7-4-2) didn’t score the first goal until the second half. Head coach Dan Garcia said the win gave his team a confidence boost, as Bishop Stang has played well against the rest of the CCL. “I think it was a great win for us,” said Garcia. “Stang…
One of the biggest news stories in Boston sports this week involved a lopsided pickup game between Boston Celtics media members and the team’s coaching staff on Tuesday. While the reporters typically play each other in a friendly pickup game at the Celtics practice facility every year, head coach Joe Mazzulla decided to switch things up this year and have the media play the coaches instead. Not surprisingly, Mazzulla’s coaching staff obliterated the unsuspecting reporters, outscoring them 57-4 over 12 dominant minutes. Naturally, that begs the question: what would happen if the Bruins held a similar event with their coaches…
Welcome back to our 2025 Red Sox Postmortem. After talking about the things we loved and hated, grading Craig Breslow and Alex Cora, reevaluating the Rafael Devers trade, and handing out individual awards, today we turn our attention to the big question: was the 2025 Red Sox season a success?Yeeeeeahhhhuuuuhhhhhhhhehhhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnnno. No. It’s not a success, no. It’s certainly not a failure, and it’s certainly a step in the right direction (Sam Kennedy would be proud of me for saying that). But season that ends at the hands of the Yankees in the Wild Card round cannot be considered a success…
The Celtics have been preparing to enter this season without Jayson Tatum. Now, the status of his longtime co-star is up in the air. Jaylen Brown, Boston’s clear-cut No. 1 option while Tatum recovers from Achilles surgery, exited Wednesday night’s preseason finale at TD Garden with what the team called left hamstring tightness. Brown suffered the injury midway through the first quarter. Roughly a minute after falling awkwardly on a drive to the basket, he grabbed at his hamstring, called for a sub and walked off toward the locker room. The Celtics announced Brown was doubtful to return, and he…
Senior Kayla Bohlin dished three assists, while sophomore Kate Swenson had a goal and an assist as Wellesley (14-1) won its 14th consecutive game with a 4-0 Bay State Conference field hockey victory over Newton North.

Blaire Brennan paced things offensively (two goals, two assists), while Elise Cecere and Emerson Acquaviva each finished with two goals to go…
The New England Patriots are doing pretty well right now. Heading into Week 7 of the 2025 campaign, they are currently holding the No. 1 seed in the AFC East, thanks in large part to an ongoing three-game win streak. However, the team can’t get complacent, as there’s a lot of work left to do this season. With that in mind, the front office is always looking for moves to make, and on Wednesday, they made an intriguing addition to their practice squad. With Jaylinn Hawkins battling a hamstring injury and Kyle Dugger struggling while filling in for him, the…
