The Red Sox Have Been Dominated Ever Since Their Trip to the White House — Plus a Few More Observations When the Boston Red Sox visited the White House earlier this season to celebrate their past achievements, spirits were high and optimism was in the air. But ever since that celebratory trip to Washington, the team has struggled mightily on the field. What was supposed to be a feel-good moment for the organization seems to have marked the beginning of a concerning downward spiral. Since that visit, the Red Sox have posted one of the worst records in the American League. Their pitching staff, which had been a surprising strength early in the year, has faltered. Starters are failing to go deep into games, and the bullpen has repeatedly let leads slip away. Lucas Giolito, once a steadying presence, has seen his ERA climb, and the once-reliable back-end duo of Kenley Jansen and Chris Martin has been anything but automatic. Offensively, the Red Sox have hit a wall. Key contributors like Rafael Devers and Masataka Yoshida have cooled off significantly, and the team is struggling to drive in runs with runners in scoring position. What was once a promising lineup filled with power and potential now appears inconsistent and uninspired. Injuries have also played a role. Trevor Story remains sidelined, and others have been in and out of the lineup, robbing the team of continuity. The lack of depth has been exposed, and younger players thrust into starting roles haven’t been able to carry the load. Manager Alex Cora has been visibly frustrated, and fans are beginning to lose patience. The momentum from their solid start to the season has completely evaporated. What’s more troubling is that the team doesn’t seem to have an immediate solution to halt the slide. Yet, amid the downturn, there are still a few bright spots. Rookie outfielder Roman Anthony continues to show flashes of brilliance, and Jarren Duran remains a spark plug at the top of the order. Additionally, Craig Breslow’s front office has stayed composed, resisting knee-jerk reactions in favor of long-term planning. Still, the reality is this: the Red Sox have looked overmatched and disorganized ever since their White House visit. If they want to salvage their season, something needs to change fast—before the hole becomes too deep to climb out of.

BREAKING NEWS: BYU Officially Announces Addition of Baylor Transfer Robert Wright III

BYU Officially Announces Addition of Baylor Transfer Robert Wright III

By Mitch Harper – KSL Sports | April 14, 2025

Provo, Utah – BYU basketball made a major splash in the transfer portal Monday, officially announcing the addition of former Baylor standout Robert Wright III. The dynamic point guard, considered one of the top players available in this year’s portal, brings elite playmaking and leadership to the Cougars for the 2025-26 season.

Robert Wright III, BYU Basketball, Former Baylor Transfer...

Wright, who completed his visit to Provo this past weekend, is a significant pickup for head coach Kevin Young’s squad, especially with the recent departure of freshman phenom Egor Demin to the NBA Draft.

“We are excited to welcome Rob and his entire family to BYU,” Young said in a statement. “He is one of the most dynamic guards in the country with his combination of speed and quickness. He’s the ultimate floor general and makes everyone around him better. We can’t wait to get started.”

Wright himself took to social media following the announcement, tweeting, “Let’s Work #AGTG (All Glory To God),” signaling his readiness to get to work in Provo.

The 6-foot-1, 183-pound guard averaged 11.5 points, 4.2 assists, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals during his freshman season at Baylor, earning Honorable Mention All-Big 12 and All-Freshman Team honors. His standout year helped solidify his ranking as the No. 8 overall transfer in the 2025 cycle by 247Sports.

Wright is no stranger to high-level competition. Prior to college, he starred at powerhouse Montverde Academy, helping lead the program to a flawless 33-0 season alongside top NBA prospect Cooper Flagg.

Interestingly, Wright’s breakout game last season came against none other than BYU. On January 28, he dropped 22 points and recorded six assists against the Cougars, giving BYU fans a firsthand look at what he’s capable of.

He joins a BYU team poised for an exciting season, featuring incoming five-star freshman AJ Dybantsa and potentially the return of veteran guard Richie Saunders, who has yet to declare whether he’ll return or pursue professional opportunities.

With the addition of Wright, BYU instantly adds a proven leader to its backcourt and solidifies itself as a contender in the new-look Big 12. Cougar Nation has plenty to be excited about as the Kevin Young era picks up steam.
