You can’t judge a book by its cover, but sometimes, it’s impossible not to. When people hear about late round draft picks, they generally assume the picks will only be used on scrubs. But remember that time where the New England Patriots owned the 199th pick of the 2000 NFL Draft? Christian Martinelli
Coming off of their record tying sixth Super Bowl title, the New England Patriots have lost some key contributors, and need to restock with the draft. New England has stockpiled a slew of draft picks for the 2019 season. While the team had their question marks entering this time last year, the Pats were able to overcome their shortcomings to place another ring of Brady’s finger. The same concerns are there yet again, but with another draft comes a new group of players hungry to bring another ring to Foxborough.

Nothing is more relaxing in the middle of the week like a baseball game. On a clear brisk Wednesday evening at McCoy, the Pawtucket Red Sox were wrapping up their home series against the visiting Buffalo Bisons. Already the Bisons had taken the first two games of the series and were looking for the sweep. The PawSox, on the other hand, were looking to score a victory to prevent said sweep as well as end their homestand on a high note. Taking the mound for the PawSox was RHP Chandler Shepherd (0-3, 5.23) looking for his first victory of the 2019 season. Opposing him was Bisons RHP Sean Reid-Foley (0-1, 20.25).
