Craig Kimbrel Not Budging In Contract Demands

Dave Meter, the agent for free-agent closer Craig Kimbrel, was still searching for a deal in the five-year, $100 million range as of late last month. Kimbrel is still holding out for a high asking price, and the few offers he has received aren't anywhere close to what he's looking for. A closer-needy team could […]

Dustin Pedroia Back In The Lineup On Saturday

Boston Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia is back in the lineup and batting eighth for Saturday's game against Andrew Cashner and the Baltimore Orioles.
