With training camp less than three weeks away, several players are still left without teams. One of those players was taken off the board today when the Boston Bruins signed forward Tyler Johnson to a professional tryout on Saturday. The undrafted 34-year-old was initially signed by the Tamp Bay Lightning as a free agent in […]
The Red Sox look to win their first series in three tries Saturday, as they meet the Detroit Tigers in a matinee matchup at Comerica Park.

The Boston Celtics have plenty of nickname guys. Kristaps Porzingis is known as “The Unicorn.” Jayson Tatum has been known to go by “Big Deuce.” Al Horford hasn’t been called anything but “Big Al” in like a decade. Payton Pritchard has more than you’d expect (Fast PP, 8 Mile, P-Rabbit) out of a role player. […]

The offseason free agency market hasn’t been friendly to former Boston Celtics guard Evan Fournier, which has left the 12-year veteran considering saying goodbye to the NBA in search of a contract offer elsewhere. Fournier has begun to “seriously” weigh offers from teams in the EuroLeague, according to Michalis Stefanou of EuroHoops. The 31-year-old spent […]
The Boston Red Sox might experience a lot of late-season roster movement amid the team’s postseason push. Still, manager Alex Cora ensured that left-handed hitter Masastaka Yoshida wouldn’t undergo any role change for the remainder of 2024. “Nope.
