    4/18 vs Guardians

    The Red Sox are keeping Yoshida as their "secret weapon." Once the season gets going in earnest (a.k.a. "May"), they'll unleash the Yoshida.

    The WNBA: Thread II

    According to CBS Sports' Jack Maloney, the Sun have already have a full roster, and can wait a year for Lacan to come. So she's a Euro-stash. Perhaps the first in WNBA history? They drafted three other players in the second and third rounds, but they aren't guaranteed rookie contracts.

    Playoff Fear Factor: Which EC team is your top concern?

    I would rank the EC challengers to the Celtics' title pursuit thusly: 1. New York Knicks. They have the best defense in the conference, and get enough scoring from Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart to steal a few games. But Julius Randle is their 2nd leading scorer and leading rebounder, and he's out...

    Marquette needs to calm down a bit. Too many plays seem rushed.

    23-24 UConn Basketball: Stephon's Castle

    Providence started with a 15-2 run in 4 minutes and closed with a 16-4 run over 8 minutes. The 28 minutes in between? UConn, 68-29. The run toward the end of the first half seems to be the hallmark of this team. They adjust to what their opponents are doing, clamp down on defense, and then their...

    2023-24 Celtics

    I think when the Warriors looked at the numbers on Jaylen, they saw a guy who shoots 35.2% on threes (8th on the Celtics, 129th in the NBA) and 57.6% on twos (2nd on the Celtics, 38th in the NBA, and KP, who was 1st, was out), so they played him as their biggest inside threat, so they put...

    3/3 vs. Golden State

    I saw the whole game. I don't know which I enjoyed more: the insanely hot 3-pt. shooting in the first half, or the incredible defense they deployed on the Stephen Curry and the Warriors. I'm leaning toward the defense. I also watched the UConn-Seton Hall game. UConn Celtics 231, Seton Hall...

    3/3 vs. Golden State

    Golden State’s lowest scoring game this year is the 97-84 win over Charlotte on 2/23. That’s in jeopardy too.

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    I'm comparing this year's Patriots draft to their 1993 draft. That year they had a new coach, the No. 1 pick, and a lot of holes. Their first pick was a no-brainer (Drew Bledsoe), and got some additional pieces, including Troy Brown in the 8th round. Their offense didn't improved much, but they...

    How Many Games Does Anthony Rendon Play In 2024?

    I took a gander at Rendon's game logs as an Angel on BRef. His first season was 2020, the COVID year, each team played only 60 regular season games. He played 52, ostensibly a "full" season, and his OPS+ was 150, on par with his previous three seasons with the Nationals. And then each season...

    Who wins Super Bowl 58?

    Here's my take: 30 is the magic number. If KC scores over 30 tonight, they'll win. If they don't, they'll lose. I'm betting they don't. 28-27 Niners.
