Craig Breslow came to the Red Sox front office as almost a complete unknown. We knew he was a pitching guy, obviously. We knew that Theo liked him. We knew that he went to an Ivy League school and considered studying medicine and spent most of his playing career as the smartest guy in the room (though that’s not hard to do when you’re frequently in a room with Jonathan Papelbon). But we didn’t know what kind of GM he would be. Do we know what kind of GM he is now? Coming into today, you could easily make an…

MILTON – Some traditions can last forever. Thanks to another incredible performance from Ellis Barnes, BB&N was able to keep its reign rolling in Northeast 7-on-7 play. The Columbia-bound wideout made countless clutch plays Thursday, as the Knights captured their second straight New England championship in the showcase with a 12-6 win over Leominster at Milton High School. “This is definitely a tone-setter for the year,” Barnes said afterward. “We won the tournament last year, and that set us up to go undefeated in the ISL. We’re definitely looking to do that here.” The Knights rolled through Thursday’s pool play…

Terry McLaurin didn’t want to request a trade, but his continued disappointment has prompted the star receiver to do just that. The Washington Commanders star pass-catcher requested a trade, as first reported by FOX Sports’ Jordan Schultz on Thursday evening. ESPN’s Adam Schefter confirmed Schultz report and noted teams have called Washington. However, the Commanders have “no interest in moving on from him,” Schefter wrote in a follow-up post. more Commanders GM Makes Comments On Terry McLaurin Contract Situation by Sean T.

With just over 10 minutes left before Thursday’s 6 p.m. MLB trade deadline, the Red Sox finally swung a trade for a starting pitcher: Right-hander Dustin May from the Los Angeles Dodgers, in exchange for outfield prospect James Tibbs III, whom the San Francisco Giants sent to Boston last month in the Rafael Devers trade. According to Chris Smith of MassLive, the Red Sox are also sending outfield prospect Zach Ehrhard to the Dodgers. May, 27, is in his sixth big-league season. Through 19 games (18 starts) the Texas native owns a 4.85 ERA with 97 strikeouts and 43 walks…
Dave O’Hearn didn’t let a battle with cancer define who he was behind the bench. The popular Methuen/Tewksbury girls hockey head coach was an inspiration to all this past winter, as he stayed at his coaching post for the entirety of the season despite receiving treatment for pancreatic cancer. O’Hearn’s courageous fight came to an end this week. He was 48. The beloved coach left a lasting impact on every corner of the local hockey world. “I admire his courage,” said Tewksbury High athletic director Ron Drouin. “I admire his resolve. He obviously was in a lot of pain all…
Injuries have a tendency to strike without warning in Major League Baseball, and with the trade deadline approaching in mere hours, the health of players can make or break a team’s overall plans. That fact was evident once again on Thursday when MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand revealed via social media post that Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Yandy Díaz had to be removed from today’s game after being hit by a pitch from New York Yankees right-hander Marcus Stroman. During the third pitch of his at-bat in the first inning, Díaz was struck by an 89.9 mph sinker on his right…
FOXBORO — The Patriots held a 75-minute walkthrough on Thursday, so not much action to report, but there was news. Mack Hollins, an offseason free agent pickup who’s been on the PUP list since the start of camp, is off PUP and was on the field at least for the walkthrough. The 6-foot-4 Hollins spent last season with the Bills, catching 31 passes and emerging as a core special-teamer. He had his best season with the Raiders in 2022 when Josh McDaniels was Vegas’ head coach, pulling in 57 passes for 690 yards. Hollins’ size, special teams value and recent…
FOXBORO — Patriots starting left tackle and fourth overall pick Will Campbell struggled during Wednesday’s practice, allowing two sacks and a pressure during 11-on-11 work also suffering a tough loss in 1-on-1s. But starting right tackle Morgan Moses still felt positive about Campbell after he passed along some advice to the rookie. “I mean, it’s the evolution of football, man. So, he’s learning how to be a pro, and he’s learning how to not make the same mistakes that he’s made the day before,” Moses said. “Obviously we got a great defensive line across there. So those guys come every…
