Boston housing advocates push for eviction protections
Housing advocates plan to pack Boston City Hall Monday to push for additional protections for renters facing eviction in the city’s hot housing market.However, tenant advocates have already agreed to drop their most controversial request: a mandate that rent increases of 5 percent or more be subject to nonbinding mediation. Instead, they are pushing for a rule that would require landlords to notify the city of rent hikes that result in eviction, known as a no-fault notice to quit.

David Pastrnak is starting to look like one of those rare and invaluable NHL players with the knack for producing instant offense — a guy who seems to make good things happen offensively almost every time on the ice.Pastrnak’s sophomore season certainly didn’t start very well. He had two goals and two assists in his first 10 games, then was sidelined for 21 games with a broken foot, had three AHL stints in Providence and spent time with Team Czech Republic at the world junior tournament.But the ..>> view originalYoan Moncada strokes first hit, Travis Shaw stays red hot for Boston ...

COMMENTARY When Boston College announced it was joining the Atlantic Coast Conference back in 2003, the news was met with great enthusiasm. The school’s “revenue” teams—football and basketball—were strong, and theoretically would only get stronger. But things haven’t worked out that way, and after year 11 in the ACC, it’d be hard to say that anyone is really feeling that enthusiasm any longer. The time may have come for BC to consider switching conferences, because there is a mountain of data..>> view originalCamille Cosby's deposition could continue same day as Boston ...
The deposition of Bill Cosby’s wife, Camille Cosby, could potentially continue on the same day as the Boston Marathon.

WALTHAM, Mass. – The next couple of weeks will be a major test for the Boston Celtics, as they will continue their playoff push without the presence of Jae Crowder. The starting forward sprained his right ankle on a drive to the rim during Friday’s loss to the Houston Rockets, and C’s coach Brad Stevens announced after Sunday’s practice that he will miss two weeks minimum. Crowder has arguably been Boston’s most versatile defender this season. His ability to guard 3 through 5 enables the t..>> view originalMatt Barnes, Heath Hembree important to 2016 Boston Red Sox ...
FORT MYERS, Fla. — Matt Barnes and Heath Hembree are expected to begin 2016 at Triple-A Pawtucket. But Barnes, Hembree and the other depth relievers are more important to the Red Sox's success than you might realize. Boston and other major league teams use seven relievers on a 25-man roster at one time. When everyone's healthy, Craig Kimbrel, Koji Uehara, Carson Smith, Junichi Tazawa, Robbie Ross Jr., Tommy Layne and Steven Wright are the top seven relievers expected to be on Boston's 25-man r..>> view originalMark Wahlberg: 'Huge pressure' to get Patriots' Day film right

FORT MYERS, Fla. รข It's only spring training. And yes, spring training stats mean very little.
