HEADLINES

1 min White Birch

15 min Celtics*Brad is on a mission - Tristian Thompson traded to Atlanta for Kris Dunn * Kris Dunn linked to be on the move- Moses Brown traded to Dallas for Josh Richardson * Brad uses the remainder of the Gordon Hayward TPE* Evan Fournier wants 4 years $80 million - Celtics not expected to give him that contract
- I think it is pretty clear the Celtics are positioning themself to have enough room for a max spot next year. - The obvious choice is Beal, but could be anyone looking for a max deal.
However* Celtics expected to be in on Lonzo Ball
- Not sure how that would affect the cap. - Maybe you give Lonzo a 1 year deal and re sign him next year with bird rights after you bring in the max contract
Brad Stevens has a vision - He seems to know exactly what this team needs. "Experience and Edge" * no draft day deals. - Sign and stash taken at 45 - Juan Begarin
NBA Draft - The most boring in recent history.*Lakers trade for Westbrook -I'm over the Lebron era. * Bradley beal to the Celtics example as not a Lebron Era move. - I'll explain

10 min Red Sox strike out at the deadlineKyle Schwarber not expected to play for two weeks * Anthony Rizzo already has 2 home runs. The compensation for Rizzo is something the Red sox could have and should have matched.
OF Kevin Alcántara and RHP Alexander Vizcaino.
Vizcaino - 60 day IL. Double A. Vizcaino, 24, has split his season between a complex league and High-A, amassing a 7.50 ERA and a 0.70 strikeout-to-walk ratio in six innings.Alcántara, 19, has hit .360/.448/.520 in eight rookie ball games this season

Rays pick up Nelson Cruz
Red Sox trade Michael Chavis to Pittsburgh for Austin Davis 5.74 ERA. Whats the spin rate Chaim?
Red Sox trade Alex Scherff for Hansel Robles 4.91 ERA. Spin rate?
Sox get Hansel and Gretal when they were rumored in on Both Scherzer and Berrios. Fuck Red sox Ownership and manageemnt. This is why this team is so hard to get behind. The bullshit PR thrown in our face.
