The wife of a former Boston Red Sox infielder has admitted to making a burner Twitter account to defend her husband during his MLB playing days. Here’s the twist — she’s also an ESPN reporter. ESPN’s NFL reporter Laura Rutledge, wife of Josh Rutledge (Red Sox player from 2015-2017), appeared on the “Marchand Sports Media” podcast this week and hilariously admitted to making a burner to spit fire at her husband’s critics. “When he was with the Angels, I made a fake Twitter — I’m admitting this, OK?” Rutledge said. “I know this was wrong. I’m not doing it ever…
Remember Kenta Maeda? Five-time NPB All-Star, former Dodger and Cy Young runner-up, that Kenta Maeda? Well, he’s in the Yankees’ minor league system at the age of 37 and he just carried a no-hitter against the WooSox into the eighth inning. Nathan Hickey ended up breaking it up with four outs remaining in the game by going deep. The WooSox would finish the rest of the game without another hit. The late-30’s MLB veteran Worcester had on the mound… did not do quite as well, though he did strike seven RailRiders out. 4 2/3 innings later, the score was 4-0,…
Speaking candidly on the latest episode of his “White Noise” podcast, Derrick White acknowledged how “different” the upcoming Celtics season feels following the franchise’s offseason roster overhaul. Between Jayson Tatum’s Achilles injury and the departures of Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday, Luke Kornet and Al Horford, Boston will enter the 2025-26 campaign without more than half of its core rotation from last season. White — one of the few returning mainstays along with fellow starter Jaylen Brown and top reserves Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser — knows the expectations for this new-look group have changed. “It’s definitely going to be different.…

Former Boston Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas has not played in the NBA since appearing in six games with the Phoenix Suns during the 2023-2024 season. With Thomas away from the NBA for nearly two years, the league has seemingly forgotten about him. However, Max Lederman from NBC Sports Boston believes the Celtics should offer Thomas a role, whether as a player or a coach, this season. “I’d pay Isaiah Thomas to be a part of the organization, either as a player or on the coaching staff,” Lederman wrote. “I never felt right about how things turned out for IT,…

FOXBORO — In his Tennessee days, Mike Vrabel would walk into the first team meeting of every game week with a promise. Do these three or four things, he’d tell his players, and victory will be waiting on the other side. Sometimes, Vrabel’s keys were obvious. Protect the ball. Protect the quarterback. Prevent explosive plays on defense. Others were tailored to the Titans’ upcoming opponent, a particular matchup or scheme. This week, Vrabel has already identified his keys for the Patriots; the battlegrounds he believes will swing Sunday’s season opener against the Raiders one way or another. Offered the chance…

Wednesday was a tough day for the Boston Red Sox. First, they found out that star rookie Roman Anthony will miss the rest of the regular season with an oblique injury. Then they got blown out by the Cleveland Guardians 8-1 at Fenway Park. Fortunately, the Red Sox are still in good shape. They’re 15 games over .500 and control a wild card spot, so they just need to hang on for a few more weeks until the playoffs start. They can’t afford to get too down or lose focus so close to the finish line. While Boston is still…
