What we’ve got here, is failure to communicate. Red Sox pitcher Liam Hendricks told reporters today that Alex Cora had a “slip of the tongue” on Sunday when the Sox manager said that the veteran reliever’s season is likely over due to a hip injury. Hendriks said he’s discussed the matter with Cora and added that he fully expects to pitch again this season. In the interest of making matters entirely clear, the loquacious Australian issued a rather memorable update of his own on the second opinion he received. “I saw a different guy and he was like, ‘You’ve got…

Red Sox rookie Roman Anthony was scratched from Monday’s lineup just prior to first pitch. The club announced shortly afterwards that Anthony is dealing with mid back tightness. The top Red Sox rookie was originally slated to start in right field and bat third in Monday’s series opener against the Kansas City Royals. Anthony went through pregame warmups in full uniform but shortly before first pitch was spotted grabbing his back and speaking to the trainer. Wilyer Abreu subsequently took Anthony’s place in right field for the night. Since making his MLB debut on June 9 Anthony has been among…
Wilyer Abreu wasn’t even originally supposed to start on Monday. It wasn’t until Roman Anthony was scratched moments before first pitch that he took his place in right field. “Like two minutes before the game,” Wilyer Abreu said via interpreter Carlos Villoria Benítez. “That’s when I found out I was going to play.” The Red Sox were sure glad he was there in the top of the eighth. After bludgeoning Kansas City Royals starter Bailey Falter and jumping out to a seven-run lead, the Red Sox nearly saw things come completely off the rails after the Royals rallied for four…
It’s not every day a prospect debuts and makes an immediate impact. Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony is doing just that. Anthony has been highly touted for over a year now. He was ranked the number one prospect in baseball by several outlets, for good reason. After a slow start, the outfielder has raised his OPS to .828. He’s hit in the top three in the order in almost every game since he’s been on the roster. Red Sox manager Alex Cora can’t stop saying nice things about him. “[Anthony] has a great swing. He has a pretty good…
I’ve been writing for this site for 12 bloody years and every post has been through Vox Media’s Chorus platform, which will sunset at 5 p.m. today, at which point we get on Wordpress like everyone else. Chorus was good enough, I guess, so be sure to say bye to the old goat before tonight’s 7:10 against the Royals. Nothing should work too differently for y’all except that we’ll be a lot happier, because the Sox are winning, but Wordpress doesn’t get credit for that. We do. It’s Brayan Bello vs. Bailey Falter tonight, as the Royals come in at…
It was only about a year ago that Payton Tolle was selected by the Red Sox in the second round of the 2024 MLB Draft, and it’s only been four months since he made his in-game professional debut. Now, Tolle is officially just one step away from the majors. Tolle’s incredible rise through the Red Sox system continued this weekend when the 22-year-old left-hander was promoted to Triple-A Worcester. Tolle’s promotion came after just six outings at Double-A Portland, during which he posted a 1.67 ERA with 37 strikeouts in 27 innings. “He was hitting the development goals that we’d…
BOSTON (AP) — Houston Astros reliever Héctor Neris used a balk to advance a runner to third on Saturday, then had an exchange with Red Sox third base coach Kyle Hudson that led to a dustup between the teams.Neris surrendered Trevor Story’s two-out RBI double in the seventh inning of Houston’s 7-3 loss. The right-hander then balked, moving Story to third, before Carlos Narváez bounced to shortstop for the final out.As Neris made his way off the mound, he had words with Hudson and yelled toward the Red Sox dugout, causing both teams, including bullpens, to come on the field before…
The Florida Panthers had the same reaction as their fans when former Boston Bruins captain Brad Marchand was traded. Their initial reaction was one of excitement, but it quickly turned into questioning who had been traded to Boston. Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman was one of the first NHL insiders to break the trade news, but he didn’t reveal who was sent away to Boston in the trade. This left the Panthers group chat to guess who was going to the Bruins. Matthew Tkachuk was the one to send out who he thought was in the trade. He originally said it was…

FOXBORO — Patriots defensive coordinator Terrell Williams left practice midway through Monday’s session after being treated for dehydration, per the team. ]The Patriots took extra precautions after Williams dealt with an undisclosed health-related scare, which kept him home in the Detroit area during the offseason workout program, this spring, but said the defensive coordinator is “fine.” Williams returned to the team for training camp after an extended absence during rookie minicamp, minicamp and organized team activities. Williams’ dehydration on Monday is viewed by the team as being unrelated to his health issue in the spring. Inside linebackers coach Zak Kuhr…
