David Ortiz Doesn't Have Time To Worry About Respect
Speaking purely as someone who adores stupid sports controversies, I never want this baseball offseason to end. The Saga of Drake LaRoche spun my head so completely that I almost forgot about this spring’s other big storylines: Bryce Harper telling the old-timers to stuff it and Goose Gossage scream...
It Looks Like A Bunch Of White Sox Players Had A Problem With Adam LaRoche's Teen Son
The continuing controversy over Adam LaRoche retiring because the White Sox wouldn’t let his teen son Drake hang out in the clubhouse every day shouldn’t still be this funny, and yet, here we find ourselves this morning, with Adam Eaton saying things like this....
Adam LaRoche Says White Sox Asked Him To Stop Bringing His Son To The Clubhouse Altogether
Adam LaRoche has released a statement about his 14-year-old son Drake, his decision to walk away from the White Sox, team vice president Kenny Williams, family, baseball, character, morals, God, brands, and a whole bunch of other stuff....
Chris Sale Is Really Mad That The White Sox Won't Let A Kid Hang Out In The Clubhouse All Day
Starting pitcher Chris Sale is a valued player in good standing with the White Sox, so he’s using his position to call out the team’s handling of Adam LaRoche and his 14-year-old son, Drake. This morning, Sale had both LaRoches’ jerseys hanging in his locker, and accused White Sox vice president Ken...
Who Had A Problem With Adam LaRoche's Kid?
Adam LaRoche and his 14-year-old son Drake aren’t with the White Sox anymore; the first baseman walked away from the team on Tuesday after Kenny Williams asked him to reduce Drake’s time around the clubhouse. This unique MLB controversy gets more confusing, however. Today, reports claim that White S...
The Cubs And White Sox Aren't Happy About Chicago's Smokeless Tobacco Ban In Stadiums
Yesterday, Chicago’s city council passed an ordinance banning all forms of smokeless tobacco from the city’s sports stadiums. That means no dip, no chaw, no snus, all informally part of baseball culture as long as there has been a sport where men sit around for three hours every day. And for the pla...
Adam LaRoche Retired Because The White Sox Wouldn't Let His Kid Hang Out In The Clubhouse Every Day
On Tuesday, Chicago White Sox first baseman Adam LaRoche announced, much to the relief of White Sox fans, that he would retire from baseball. It now appears that his decision was related less to his inability to hit at a major league level or to injuries than to his 14-year-old son, Drake. According...
Sports Figure Endorses Donald Trump
Donald Trump, a screeching piece of mac ‘n cheese pizza, recently picked up an endorsement from former Yankee Paul O’Neill. He now has another former baseball player on his side, in the form of former Red Sox and Yankees star Johnny Damon....
Red Sox Prospect Fractured Hand In Fight With Roommate
Red Sox pitching prospect Michael Kopech missed 50 games last year after testing positive for stimulants. It looks like he’s going to miss another chunk of games this season, as he fractured his hand during an altercation with his roommate....
Report: Red Sox Reporter Jessica Moran Resigns As Rumors Of Relationship With Manager John Farrell Swirl
Comcast SportsNet New England reporter Jessica Moran resigned from the network after seven years on the job, she confirmed to the Boston Globe’s Mark Shanahan Friday.

David Ortiz Wants A Standing Ovation From Yankees Fans
It’s David Ortiz’s final season, and barring a Red Sox playoff appearance, his final road games will be at Yankee Stadium the last week of September. Given how much of Ortiz’s career and reputation is caught up in the Yankees/Red Sox rivalry, and how his heroics in the 2004 ALCS turned around the fr...
Giants Broadcaster Says Pablo Sandoval Has An Eating Disorder
Pablo Sandoval’s big spring training belly remains the topic of conversation outside Red Sox camp, even if no one actually in camp admits they care all that much. But while there are lots of angles you could take on Sandoval’s fitness and commitment, here’s at least one you probably shouldn’t....

Red Sox Fan Pleads With Giants Manager Bruce Bochy To Take Back Pablo Sandoval
Pablo Sandoval’s first season with the Red Sox was a horrid disaster. He accrued a career-low .292 on-base percentage, got in trouble for using Instagram in a bathroom during a game, swung at practically anything, and just couldn’t run the bases by the end of the season, forcing the team to shut him...
Mookie Betts Drove A Golf Cart Right Into A Lake
Red Sox center fielder Mookie Betts is an adept baseball man, as well as an extremely skilled bowler. What he’s not good at is driving a golf cart, apparently. He and Travis Shaw went golfing this afternoon, and they got a bit more amphibious than they wanted to....

Should The Blue Jays Have Tried To Keep David Price?
The Red Sox signed David Price to a massive seven-year, $217 million contract. We soon learned that the Cardinals were in second, more than $30 million behind. And the Blue Jays, who said all the right things about hoping to keep their lefty ace who, acquired at the trade deadline, led the team to a...
Is David Price Worth It?
It feels like the old days, with the Red Sox dropping a knee-buckling amount of money to snatch a superstar in his prime. So much for Boston’s brief experiment with (relative) fiscal restraint. But consecutive last-place finishes have a way of trying an owner’s patience, and an elite, durable lefty ...
Report: David Price Is Going To The Red Sox, For So Much Money
The stove’s hot: David Price is going to the Red Sox for a buttload of cash, according to Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe....
