Red Sox Notes: Lack Of Run Support Troubling Rick Porcello This Season
Aside from being dominant on the mound, Rick Porcello’s march to the 2016 American League Cy Young Award was assisted by the Boston Red Sox bats. The right-hander received an outpouring of run support in nearly every start last season, which helped him amass a 22-4 record en route to baseball’s highest pitching honor. It’s been a much different tale of the tape this season, though, as the Red Sox offense, for whatever reason, has been quiet on nights Porcello takes the hill. Wednesday’s outing was no different, as Boston was defeated 4-1 by the Minnesota Twins, marking Porcello’s 10th loss of the 2017 campaign. To be clear, Porcello ha... NESN.com

Could Celtics Use These Josh Jackson Rumors To Land Star At NBA Draft?
Share this: In theory, the No. 1 overall pick is more valuable than the No. 3 selection, hence why the Philadelphia 76ers relinquished a first-round pick in next year’s NBA draft to move up two spots earlier this week. That said, the Boston Celtics, who traded down from No. 1 to No. 3 in the aforementioned deal, still sit in an enviable position, especially given some rumors surrounding Kansas’ Josh Jackson, who could be the best player available on many draft boards Thursday night if Washington’s Markelle Fultz and UCLA’s Lonzo Ball go first and second, respectively, as expected. First, consider this report Thursday morning from Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports’ The Vertical: Tremendous appetite around the NBA to trade into the Top 4
