The Boston Red Sox ended their six-game losing streak by delivering a much-needed 15-1 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday. Boston’s bats exploded for 15 runs on 18 hits while slugging three home runs in an exciting win at Fenway Park. The team had previously scored four runs in their last 28 innings before Saturday’s impressive display. Red Sox rookie Roman Anthony was front and center during the team’s 18-hit barrage against Toronto pitching. Anthony, who was batting .128 before his breakout performance, collected his first three-hit game of his Major League career and also scored two runs.…

The Bruins have taken care of an important bit of in-house business before the start of free agency on Tuesday. The B’s inked Morgan Geekie to a six-year deal with an average annual value of $5.5 million late Sunday night. That’s solid value for a player who broke out in one of the few success stories of the 2024-25 Bruins season, exploding for a 33-goal season while skating with David Pastrnak. He finished second on the team with 57 points. While some have questioned whether Geekie can replicate that kind of goal scoring because of his unusually high shooting percentage…
Prior to the 2024 season, Jordan Hicks’ free agency came down to two teams: the San Francisco Giants and Boston Red Sox. The Giants wound up inking Hicks to a four-year, $44 million contract, but the Red Sox still made a strong impression on the flamethrowing right-hander. “They came after me pretty hard and they were in on me,” Hicks said. “It was between them and the Giants, so I’m excited to be here and feel wanted.” The Red Sox eventually got their man anyway, acquiring Hicks along with left-hander Kyle Harrison and two prospects in the Rafael Devers blockbuster. Hicks…
The Boston Red Sox need their key lineup catalyst to set the tone for an improved second half. Jarren Duran hasn’t replicated a breakout 2024 thus far. The outfielder enters Sunday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays batting .252/.310/.398 with five home runs in 382 plate appearances. Duran regaining last year’s All-Star form is crucial for Boston to stay in the playoff mix. One MLB writer expects better results from the 28-year-old. In The Athletic’s Pulse Newsletter, Levi Weaver recalled Duran discussing his mental health struggles in Netflix’s “The Clubhouse: A Year with the Red Sox” documentary series. Weaver feels…
JD Davison is still a part of the Boston Celtics’ plans — for now. The Celtics are exercising their team option on Davison worth $2.27 million for the 2025-26 season, according to multiple reports. Davison’s salary is non-guaranteed and doesn’t become fully guaranteed until Jan. 10, 2026, so Boston can release him at any point prior to the start of the season without absorbing a salary cap hit. Davison didn’t play much at the NBA level last season, appearing in just 16 games for the Celtics while averaging 2.1 points over 5.8 minutes per game. He thrived in the G…
Walker Buehler has spent weeks now trying to figure things out. Over the past month the veteran starter has struggled to find any semblance of consistency, and whenever he’s seemingly made a breakthrough, something goes wrong and he finds himself back at square one. In that respect, Sunday was a microcosm of his whole season. Buehler struggled again as the Red Sox lost 5-3 to the Toronto Blue Jays, their seventh loss in eight games. Buehler allowed four runs over a listless four-inning performance, and the offense squandered several key scoring chances late. As a result the Red Sox (41-44) are…

Jordan Hicks could become the first member of the Rafael Devers trade to play for the Boston Red Sox. On June 15, the Red Sox sent Devers to the San Francisco Giants for a four-player return. Hicks was sidelined with right toe inflammation at the time of the blockbuster, but the hard-throwing pitcher has made two rehab appearances at Triple-A Worcester while preparing to join Boston’s bullpen. The Red Sox may activate Hicks for their upcoming three-game home series against the Cincinnati Reds from Monday to Wednesday, per MLB.com’s Ian Browne and WBZ TV’s Dan Roche. Hicks spoke publicly for…
