I think I finally understand why it feels like losing in New York is worse than losing most anywhere else. Sure, there are the usual culprits. You can start with the media if you like, since there are more of us than in almost any other city, and we tend to approach the world — especially the sports world — with a jaundiced eye. You can talk about fans who are exacting and demanding, which is sort of how fans are supposed to be. (I’ll never forget seeing an Oklahoma City basketball season ending in flames a few years ago, and yet the Thunder walked off the court to a standing ovation. That’s not being a good fan, that’s fan malpractice. That would never happen here. Ever. Ever. Ever. Thank goodness.) You can talk about the temptations of the city, I suppose, though nobody even pretends anymore that athletes engage in the kind of nocturnal training regimen Mickey Mantle or Joe Namath did. You can talk about the myriad distractions of Fun City. All of these … [Read more...] about Mets take losing in New York to a whole new embarrassing level

Dustin Pedroia injury: Boston Red Sox second baseman to rehab in Arizona, may return this season
BOSTON -- Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia will head home to Arizona to continue rehabbing his knee, manager Alex Cora said Tuesday. Cora said he personally believes Pedroia will return this season. Pedroia spent all of last week in New York City meeting with the doctor who performed his knee surgery last fall. After a battery of tests, the pair made adjustments to Pedroia's rehab plan before deciding it was best to send him to Arizona. "We'd love him to be around here, but I think for now it's better for him to go there, disconnect from all this and just concentrate on himself," Cora said. "There are gonna be a few adjustments on the rehab, talking about hamstring, core and glutes. I think that's the best thing we can do right now." Cora said there's no timetable for Pedroia's return, instead noting the Red Sox would take it day-by-day. Pedroia will not resume baseball activities once in Arizona, instead working with physical therapists to improve his knee and the areas around … [Read more...] about Dustin Pedroia injury: Boston Red Sox second baseman to rehab in Arizona, may return this season

Tyler Lauletta, provided by Published 9:58 am CDT, Friday, July 6, 2018 Now Playing: With their postseason run officially over thanks to Tuesday's Game 5 loss to the Warriors, the Spurs now shift their attention to the offseason. Media: Sports Illustrated Sean M. Haffey/Getty Kawhi Leonard's relationship with the San Antonio Spurs has baffled the NBA world for close to a year now.

Doctor’s orders: Dustin Pedroia to stay in New York
Dustin Pedroia will remain in Manhattan when the Red Sox leave for Washington after Sunday night’s game against the Yankees to receive further treatment on his left knee. Pedroia’s surgeon, Dr. Riley Williams III, works out of the Hospital for Special Surgery. Pedroia will report there Monday for rehab work under the Williams’s direction. The second baseman had cartilage restoration surgery in October. He started the season on the disabled list but played only three games when he returned to the DL in May because of inflammation. He has been out since. “It’s a good thing. He wants to see where I am and the movements I’m doing,’’ Pedroia said Friday before an 8-1 loss against the Yankees. “This will give us a better sense of what else I need to do.’’ Close The biggest headlines, delivered to your inbox Get news as it happens.

NY Mets’ first-round pick Jarred Kelenic is excited to call New York home
Abbey Mastracco NorthJersey Published 12:12 p.m. UTC Jun 28, 2018 NEW YORK — Jarred Kelenic’s experience in New York has been “awesome” so far, especially when it comes to one of the things this city does unlike any other: The food. The Mets’ 2018 first-round draft pick was on hand in Flushing on Wednesday ahead of the Mets’ series finale against the Pittsburgh Pirates for his official introduction to the organization and the media that follows it. The 18-year-old left-handed hitting center fielder out of Waukesha, Wisconsin, had previously been in New York only once -- a few weeks ago to get a physical after he was drafted -- and is finally able to get out and see a city unlike any other he’s ever been to. “I’m from Wisconsin, you don’t see buildings like that,” he joked. So far, Kelenic enjoyed the “awesome” Italian restaurant he went to with his family after arriving Tuesday night … [Read more...] about NY Mets’ first-round pick Jarred Kelenic is excited to call New York home
