Grissom, acquired in an offseason trade from the Atlanta Braves, has just 236 career MLB plate appearances — with mixed results — and remains a work in progress defensively at age 23. But the hope is Grissom’s return from the injured list Friday […]
The Red Sox will finally get an opportunity to see what Vaughn Grissom is about this weekend. He’s joining the big club. Boston officially activated Grissom off the injured list ahead of their series with the Minnesota Twins on Friday, adding him to the active roster after a hamstring injury and illness put him on […]
Tom Brady probably won’t unretire again… right? The former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback teased an NFL return during a recent podcast appearance, but it’s still hard to imagine Brady heading back onto the gridiron in 2024. For one, he’ll be 47 years old and didn’t play last season. Even the greatest […]
The Bruins face a Game 7 challenge Saturday, and Jim Montgomery expects Boston to bounce back and advance past the first round.

Auston Matthews has been out of the postseason since Game 5, but there’s still a chance the Bruins could face the Maple Leafs star in Game 7.

Clyde Christensen has worked with some of the best quarterbacks in the history of the NFL.

Multiple rumors suggested the Patriots could trade back from the No. 3 pick, but they stayed pat and took Drake Maye. The Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants reportedly were the most aggressive teams on draft night to make offers to New England, but de facto general manager Eliot Wolf and head coach Jerod Mayo […]
It usually isn’t a matter of whether the Patriots break training camp with an undrafted free agent on their roster, it’s a matter of how many. New England just snapped its 19-year streak of having at least one undrafted rookie make the initial regular-season roster last September, but this season is as good as any […]

Patrick Beverley had sore-loser energy when the Bucks were eliminated in the playoffs, and the NBA community didn’t let his attitude toward fans and a media member go by so easily. The Pacers closed out their first-round series against Milwaukee with a 120-98 win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse to win the best-of-seven series, 4-2. In the […]
