Bleacher Report Makes Bold Red Sox-Yankees Prediction For Stretch Run originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.The New York Yankees currently sit above the Boston Red Sox in the American League East standings.Bleacher Report does not expect them to stay there.In its latest collection of bold predictions for the final two months of the 2026 MLB season, Bleacher Report predicted that Boston will finish ahead of New York.Calling that outcome bold reflects where the two rivals currently stand. The Yankees entered Wednesday at 67-52, three games ahead of the 64-55 Red Sox. New York also occupies second place in the AL East, while Boston has fallen into third during a four-game losing streak.The Yankees have been the better team across the entire season to this point. Bleacher Report, however, believes the clubs could be heading in opposite directions down the stretch.Red Sox Made Stunning Midseason TurnaroundBostons current skid has interrupted one of baseballs most remarkable in-season transformations. The Red Sox were 14 games below .500 before launching a six-week surge that changed the direction of their season. They won 32 of 40 games, climbed into the playoff race and moved within striking distance of New York.That run was not powered by one unsustainable hot streak at the plate. Boston outscored opponents by an average of 2.3 runs per game during the stretch, receiving strong pitching and contributions throughout its lineup. The Red Sox appeared to be a balanced contender rather than a struggling team simply enjoying a collection of close victories.Their momentum has disappeared over the last several days. Boston lost its series finale against the Athletics before dropping three consecutive games to the Toronto Blue Jays. The Red Sox have scored three runs or fewer in all four defeats after erupting for 25 runs across two games immediately before the slide.Those losses have created some separation between the rivals, but Bleacher Report still sees reasons to trust Bostons potential.Yankees Have Struggled Without Aaron JudgeNew York built a comfortable advantage earlier in the season before settling into an extended period of mediocrity. The Yankees have gone 40-40 over their last 80 games. That stretch coincided with Aaron Judges rib injury, which has robbed the lineup of its most dangerous hitter.Judge has made progress, but his rib remains in the healing process. There is no guarantee he will immediately return to peak form once he is cleared. New York has managed to remain above Boston despite Judges absence, but playing .500 baseball for nearly half a season makes its position vulnerable.The Red Sox also are waiting for several prominent players to return. Roman Anthony has progressed to hitting against a high-velocity Trajekt machine as he works back from a partially torn tendon in his right ring finger. Trevor Story remains sidelined by a sports hernia, while Garrett Crochet could eventually rejoin the pitching staff.Boston already welcomed Adley Rutschman into its lineup Tuesday. The three-time All-Star reached base three times in his Red Sox debut after recovering from left wrist inflammation. Bleacher Report also identified top shortstop prospect Franklin Arias as a potential September addition. Arias was ranked as the No. 4 prospect in baseball by B/Rs Joel Reuter.MORE:Adley Rutschman Makes Strong First Impression In Red Sox DebutRed Sox Still Must Prove Prediction RightBleacher Reports prediction is a vote of confidence in Boston, but the Red Sox must stop their current slide before discussing a late-season takeover. New York has spent the season above .500 and still holds the advantage in both the standings and the loss column. Bostons remarkable comeback only matters if it can avoid giving away that progress against struggling opponents.The remaining weeks could come down to health.If Judge returns and quickly resembles his usual self, the Yankees will become far more difficult to catch. If Anthony, Story and Crochet return first and provide immediate help, Boston could possess the deeper roster for the stretch run.The article placed the Yankees over the Red Sox based on their current standing, but predicted that order will flip before the season ends.Boston has already erased a much larger deficit this year.Overcoming three more games against its oldest rival would be considerably less shocking, even if Bleacher Report still considers it bold.More Red SoxLatest Red Sox news2026 Red Sox schedule2026 Red Sox rosterComplete history of Red Sox championships

Jun 5, 2026; San Antonio, Texas, USA; San Antonio Spurs forward Victor Wembanyama (1) looks on in the second half during game two of the 2026 NBA Finals at Frost Bank Center. Mandatory Credit: Scott Wachter-Imagn ImagesSince the day the San Antonio Spurs drafted him, Victor Wembanyama was destined to become the face of the franchise. In just three years, the 22-year-old has improved significantly, already establishing himself as one of the leagues best players. Interestingly enough, all of this seems to have been part of the Spurs grand plan.At the time of the 2023 NBA Draft, the San Antonio Spurs were arguably among the worst teams in the league, having ended the 2022-23 season with a 22-60 record. After letting go of several key players over the years, it was clear that the Spurs were headed for a rebuild. But in an episode of Hard Knocks, Spurs GM Brian Wright revealed it was all guided by the pursuit of Victor Wembanyama.While responding to Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike MacDonalds question about Wembanyama, Wright shared:He was 19 Our CEO actually saw him. He was in the gym, just happened to be in the gym, and actually wasnt planning to see him. He [Wembanyama] was 16 or was just about to turn 16. He came back after his trip and said, I think I saw the greatest Ive ever seen in my life. Literally, 12 months later, we put a plan in motion to turn the team over and have a chance to draft him in a couple of years.At just 16, Victor Wembanyama had already started generating some buzz after a clip of him scoring against reigning DPOY Rudy Gobert went viral on social media. Although many people took note of the talented French prospect back then, the Spurs clearly had a far more detailed strategy.According to reports, Spurs CEO R.C. Buford saw Victor Wembanyama in May 2019. Before the 2019-20 season, the Spurs were still a solid playoff team. However, shortly after Bufords return, San Antonios downfall began.Between 2019 and 2023, the Spurs did not have a single season with more than 35 wins, with the 2022-23 seasons 22 wins being the poorest. However, given how it improved their chances of landing Wembanyama, one could say San Antonio embraced the dynasty route.Mitch Johnson also shared a brief statement about Wembanyama and what drives him, commenting:Hes that amazing. Of all the goals, he wants to be the best player ever. No question. Hed tell you that without a blink. Like, I want to be the best player ever, which is a crazy statement. Hes never done anything that puts himself above the team ever.Needless to say, the Spurs plans paid off. In just his first season, Victor Wembanyama displayed the potential to be one of the leagues best defensive players. Now, three years down the line, the Spurs center was named the first unanimous DPOY in NBA history and also finished third in MVP voting.Although the losing trend continued even after Victor Wembanyama was drafted, it put San Antonio in a position to draft Stephon Castle, Dylan Harper, and Carter Bryant. Considering that Castle went on to win ROTY and Harper played a vital role in the Spurs campaign last season, one may question whether the Spurs continued their tanking approach to create a more formidable core.For all intents and purposes, after posting a 62-20 record last season and making their first NBA Finals since 2014, the Spurs rebuild is complete. Whats surprising, however, is that after years of commitment to drafting Wembanyama, the young center seems to be reciprocating the same commitment to the franchise.After leaving a considerable amount of money on the table after signing his latest contract extension, Victor Wembanyama gave the Spurs the flexibility to keep the core together in the future. Given the long-term implications of this decision, San Antonio can expect to be contenders for years to come.

The Dallas Cowboys cant be beat when it comes to team valuations, at least. The Cowboys once again topped Sporticos list of the most valuable NFL franchises, coming in at an astounding $15.5 billion.It marks the seventh-straight year the Cowboys have led the way on the list. While the team should be happy with that placement, every other NFL team can celebrate as well, as the average team value jumped 31 percent since 2025, per Sportico.The average team value rose 31% to $9.34 billion, based on conversations with more than 40 people involved in the league, including team owners, executives, investors, consultants and bankers. It marks the biggest year-over-year value gain for the NFL since Sporticos valuations launched in 2020. The average value has increased 141% over the past five years.Thats an astonishing figure, one made even more impressive when you consider the Cincinnati Bengals, which rank No. 32 on Sporticos list, are more valuable than all but six other professional sports teams. The NFL truly remains the king. The Los Angeles Rams rank second on Sporticos list, and are valued at $12.7 billion. The New York Giants come in at third, the New England Patriots sit fourth and the New York Jets are fifth on the list. Given their struggles in recent seasons, it might be surprising to see the Jets that high. But the team is on the rise from a value perspective, at least as it jumped three spots in the rankings since 2025. If you include other sports ranked by Sportico the Cowboys still come out as No. 1 overall. They are once again followed by the Rams and Giants before a non-NFL team the Golden State Warriors is listed at No. 4. The highest MLB team in the rankings is, unsurprisingly, the New York Yankees, which have a valuation of $9.40 billion. Fifteen NFL franchises rank above the Yankees on Sporticos list.
