Is this dude actually unstoppable? We break down his three-homer spring training explosion and what it means for a Red Sox team that looks ready to "finish the race." Plus, the Celtics are heating up at the perfect time as they hit the road to take on the Bucks. Are they peaking too early, or is this the sign of a real title run? We’ve got the numbers, the odds, and the hot takes you need.Then, we’re shifting gears to the gridiron as NFL Free Agency looms. With the legal tampering window opening March 9th, we’re breaking down the Patriots' plan. Are they really going to be "surgical" at wide receiver? We discuss the speculation around A.J. Brown, the need for help on the edge, and what Mike Vrabel’s mentality means for a team looking to build on last year’s success. And of course, Anik is locked in on UFC 326 from Vegas.
