Supervising club reporter for covering the Red Sox since 2002. Encyclopedic knowledge of 1980s Celtics. Love baseball, family.

What an honor it was to write about my good friend Jonny Miller. And it was even better to see him back at the ballpark.

Good for you, Smitty. Enjoy the variety.

All you trolls can no longer say, "Nerd, stick to baseball" when I tweet something about other sports.
I'm still a nerd but I'll be shifting from full-time Red Sox (after more than a decade) to a little bit of everything (and projects) in pro sports.
Still a lot of Red Sox but I'll be handling other teams in the way I do the Sox with some interesting (sometimes weird) stories.
And of course, still Red Sox prospects.

@bigjimmurray It was ridiculous. I can't remember the last time I saw a QB who was that inaccurate.

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

No Red Sox pitcher has ever won Rookie of the Year. That is still the case as Payton Tolle finished third this season in a really tough field that featured a tremendous position player (Kevin McGonigle) and a finalist for Cy Young (Parker Messick).

@GlennDOrdway Sounds great!

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

@GlennDOrdway When are we shifting gears from WEEI nostalgia to mid 80s Celtics episodes with the prime time players from that era being interviewed by the guy who called all their games?

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

The Red Sox today exercised RHP Garrett Whitlock’s 2027 club option.

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

@AndrewMarchand It was a great story. Very detailed.

@ChrisCotillo Tomorrow is moral victory Sunday.

I've been watching football a long time. Have never seen matching 60 yard field goals to send a game into OT. Indiana/Minnesota. Damn.

[Tim Healey @timbhealey]

Sonny Gray is officially a free agent, after his mutual option is declined, as expected. He gets a $10 million buyout.

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

Cool to see Willson Contreras wearing his brother William's Brewers jersey and embracing the World Series MVP with a hug on the field. Willson won a ring 10 years ago with the Cubs.

Trying to confirm what role Bell will fill on Boston's staff.

[Brian McTaggart @brianmctaggart]

Source: Jason Bell, who served last year as the Astros' Major League field coordinator and outfield coach and had spent a decade with the organization, is leaving the club to join the Major League staff with the Boston Red Sox.

@ChrisCotillo That was a great night. The next day wasn't as great.

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

@bradfo You were almost right. And by almost, I mean, not even close. A for effort tho!

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

@ChrisCotillo Some of us like to live in the moment. The offseason is starting soon enough.

[Ian Browne @IanMBrowne]

Payton Tolle's first experience in the World Series was as a media correspondent. To the surprise of no one, he crushed it.

Good news for a good guy.

The Phillies are hiring Peter Fatse as hitting coach, sources say https://t.co/r2HNqAGljq
