Who is he and where did he come from?He’s Joe La Sorsa and, in light of the fact that he grew up in suburban NYC, went to St. John’s, and is, you know, named Joe La Sorsa, he is the platonic ideal of a Team Italy WBC player. The Red Sox acquired him yesterday in a trade with the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for cash. Exchanging cash for something is usually called “buying something,” not “trading,” but MLB doesn’t let you call it that.Important thing to note: he is not Jorge de la Rosa, even though your father-in-law probably spent…

The New England Patriots found their much-needed No. 1 wide receiver in A.J. Brown, but did they give up too much to get him? On Monday, the Patriots sent a 2028 first-round draft pick and a 2027 fifth-rounder to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for Brown. While many have praised New England for landing one of the NFL’s most talented wideouts, others — including NBC Sports Boston’s own Phil Perry — have labeled the deal an “overpay.” Those skeptical about the trade cite Brown’s knee issues, age (29), declining production, and off-field drama as reasons for concern. While the three-time…
I ju— I just don’t understand…Brayan Bello made his return to the starting rotation on Thursday. If you know anything about how this season has gone for the right-hander, you won’t be surprised to learn that it led to an atrocious first inning in which the Baltimore Orioles scored six runs in what would eventually become a 8-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox.Brayan Bello: It’s quite literally impossible to explain what is happening with this guy — who was the last guy to have a 0.71 ERA as a reliever and a 10.35 ERA as a starter?Chad Tracy/Mike Brenly:…

The 2026 NBA Finals began Wednesday night when the New York Knicks beat the San Antonio Spurs by overcoming a double-digit second-half deficit to win Game 1 on the road. Jalen Brunson’s 30 points and fourth-quarter heroics dominated headlines after the game, but the real star of the series opener for the Knicks was center Karl-Anthony Towns, who scored 18 points with 12 rebounds. But more importantly, Towns played really good defense against Spurs superstar center Victor Wembanyama. It was another example of how important it is to have a center capable of guarding the league’s best big men. Many…
First Pitch: 1:35 p.m. ETThe Red Sox and Orioles will compete in the rubber match of their three-game series on Thursday at Fenway Park.Brayan Bello, who has been absolutely phenomenal as a bulk reliever, will return to the starting rotation with the hope that he can keep that form without the help (or lack thereof) of an opener. Jovani Morán and Tyler Samaniego, the two men who have opened for the veteran right-hander, have combined to allow nine runs in four innings across their four starts, while the should-be starter has a 0.71 ERA in 25.1 innings of relief in…

The New England Patriots found their No. 1 wide receiver in A.J. Brown, but their blockbuster trade for the ex-Philadelphia Eagles star doesn’t come without risk. Brown’s knee issues are well-documented, though he downplayed those concerns during his introductory press conference on Tuesday. Then, there’s the off-field drama. The 29-year-old made headlines several times during his Eagles tenure for voicing frustration with his usage in the offense. Those are the biggest reasons some may consider the Patriots’ trade of a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-rounder to the Eagles an “overpay.” There’s no denying the elite talent, but there…
