David Ortiz is near-impeachable in these parts and it’s well-earned. He’s plainly the most important player in the history of the Red Sox, and that distinction has spoils, especially for those with whom he danced to get there, both on the field and in the organization. It is for this reason, and several others, including his obvious natural charisma, that he will remain the team’s biggest booster, all on top of being its white knight several times over. So when he recently defended John Henry by way of saying the 76-year-old owner felt “worried” about how the team has turned…

NEWTON, MASS.

Because when you…
If at any point between, let’s say, March 6 and April 26, you had asked us to forecast what the summer of 2026 might look like for the Boston Celtics, we might have suggested a rather quiet offseason could be looming. From the moment Jayson Tatum returned to parquet in early March until the night Boston took a 3-1 series lead over the Philadelphia 76ers, even the immediate future felt limitless. Drunk on Green Kool-Aid from an expectation-shattering regular season, we wondered out loud about Boston’s title chances this year, especially given Tatum’s absurd recovery, Jaylen Brown’s MVP-caliber season and…

Well, that was a little bit better of a week for the Red Sox, I suppose?I mean, 3-3 still isn’t great or anything, but I feel slightly better on the heels of a weekend road victory. I guess The offense is coming around a bit (how sticky that is, who’s to say), guys like Connelly Early and Sonny Gray pitched well, and the team heads into a pivotal week against divisional foes with a pep in their step. Feel like we’ve already seen multiple instances of this team taking a step back (or two…or three) after taking a step forward,…

The 2026 New England Patriots have hit the ground running. Well, most of them, anyway. The Patriots held their second practice of organized team activities (OTAs) on Wednesday at Gillette Stadium, and their first session open to the media. They’ll have seven more OTA practices over the next two weeks — May 29, June 1, June 2, June 4, June 8, June 9 and June 11 — before mandatory minicamp starts June 15. Since OTAs are technically optional, there were some notable names missing from Wednesday’s practice. New England’s wide receiver room also might look different next week, as the…
CLEVELAND (AP) — Masataka Yoshida had the go-ahead single during a six-run seventh inning and the Boston Red Sox rallied for a 9-4 victory over the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday.Cleveland starter Tanner Bibee left with a 4-3 lead after six innings and stood to earn his first win of the season, before the Red Sox broke through off three Guardians’ relievers.Bibee (0-7) is the fourth opening day pitcher since 1901 to make at least 12 starts and not have a win before June 1 according to Sportradar.Everyone in Boston’s lineup had at least one hit as it finished with 12.…
If you’ve seen a band with two bassists live, you’d understand why it’d be an odd sight to see three catchers in the starting lineup (Wong as DH, Gasper as 1B, and Narvaez actually doing the catching for Ranger Suarez.) But, at first, there appeared to be no LOW END (music pun!) for the offense against the Guardians, as Jarren Duran cranked a ball into the stands by the time I turned my television on and Mickey Gasper had also gotten on base with a single into the outfield.It didn’t take too long, though, for Suarez to fall into some…
