An emergency Red Sox-Angels trade to end Alex Cora's bullpen madness
Things haven't gone to plan for the Boston Red Sox coming out of the All-Star break, even though no one in their right mind would've ever thought it would be easy. Despite having late-game leads in the first two contests against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Alex Cora's team has watched his bullpen cost him the game and drop back into a tie for the third AL Wild Card spot.
It's obvious Alex Cora is setting himself up for a Craig Counsell contract
Alex Cora has managed the 2024 Boston Red Sox to 11 games over .500 at the All-Star break. Their recent tear has increased calls from fans to extend the skipper. But since the beginning of the season, Cora has been vague about his hopes for the future. MLB experts have suggested that the Red Sox front office should throw a blank check at Cora soon to keep him in Boston, but the manager has given no indication that he hopes to come back next year.

Wayland Weston Rowing Says “So Long” to 9-Year Director Mike Baker
Like many of the rowers he has coached over the last 9 years, Wayland Weston Rowing Association’s Program Director Mike Baker is going to college. An email sent yesterday to friends of WWRA said that in late August Mike will be leaving WWRA to take on the role of Boatman at MIT Crew. In case you are not a rower, the Owl assures you that Boatman is a critical role on any crew team, overseeing boathouse operations for all of college’s rowing teams. I can still remember Dave, the Boatman at Wellesley Crew, without whom our team would have been a jumbled mass of boats, oars and trailers.

PHOTOS: Take a Peek Inside of Karen Read’s Mansfield, Massachusetts, Home
One of the most captivating and polarizing events throughout New England recently has without a doubt been the Karen Read trial. The details of the trial won't be outlined here for no other reason than there have been and still are so many moving parts to the case, ruling, motions filed after the dismissal, etc., that it'd be ridiculous for someone as uneducated with the law as this writer is to try and recap it.

Matthew Slater’s official job title with Patriots revealed
Matthew Slater’s new job title on the New England Patriots’ coaching staff has officially been revealed. According to the team’s official website, Slater will be serving as a special assistant to the head coach. Back in June, Patriots coach Jerod Mayo was asked what Slater would be doing on the coaching staff, and he said the former 10-time Pro Bowler would be doing “everything.” “At this level it’s hard to find people who will tell you the truth, and he’ll tell you how it is,” said Mayo, when commenting on Slater, per 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Alex Barth. Slater still being connected to the team in any form should be considered a win for the Patriots. He’s one of the greatest players in franchise history and a future Hall of Famer. His locker room leadership would have been greatly missed after retirement. Mayo will need all of the help he can get righting the ship for a team that finished 4-13 last season. Slater is one of the coaches close enough to him to be a direct sounding board and ultimately help get the team back on track.
