Red Sox CBO Craig Breslow slams one Rafael Devers trade report as ‘absolutely not true'
Since trading Rafael Devers to the Giants, Craig Breslow has chosen his words carefully. The Red Sox CBO has taken care not to divulge specifics about what went on with Devers behind the scenes and what most of the trade conversations were like. Advertisement However, on WEEI's Greg Hill Show on Tuesday morning, Breslow did slam one report as 'absolutely not true.' The Giants took on all of Devers' contract and will pay him $271.2 million over the next nine seasons. On Baseball America's 'Hot Sheet' podcast, Geoff Pontes said there was different trade Breslow had in the works that was shot down by Red Sox ownership because the suitor wouldn't pay full freight. 'There was another deal where they were taking on some of the money,' Pontes said. 'I do not know what pieces were included within that particular deal. That was vetoed by John Henry and the reason it was vetoed was because they had to take on money.' Breslow was quick to say that wasn't true in his WEEI appearance. Advertisement 'No,' Breslow said. 'When I read that, I was as surprised as anybody else would have been who had no idea that this was a thing or had happened. Absolutely not true.' If Boston had eaten some of the money on Devers' contract, they may have netted a stronger return for the All-Star. Ultimately, they landed pitchers Jordan Hicks and Kyle Harrison and prospects James Tibbs and Jose Bello from San Francisco. More Red Sox coverage Read the original article on MassLive.

KB Home Announces the Grand Opening of Its Newest Community in Desirable Orting, Washington
ORTING, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the largest and most trusted homebuilders in the U.S., today announced the grand opening of Bridgewater, a new-home community in desirable Orting, Washington, which offers small-town charm, vibrant community events and scenic beauty. The new homes are designed for the way people live today, with popular features like modern kitchens overlooking large great rooms, expansive bedroom suites with walk-in closets, and ample storage space. The community's two-story floor plans feature up to six bedrooms and four baths. Bridgewater is walking distance to schools, parks and the Puyallup River, and homeowners will appreciate the stunning views of Mount Rainier and the Cascade Foothills. What sets KB Home apart is the company's focus on building strong, personal relationships with every customer, so they have a real partner in the homebuying process. Every KB home is uniquely built for each customer, so no two KB homes are the same. Homebuyers have the ability to personalize their new home, from floor plans to exterior styles to where they live in the community. Their home comes to life in the KB Home Design Studio, a one-of-a-kind experience where customers get both expert advice and the opportunity to select from a wide range of design choices that fit their style and their budget. Reflecting the company's commitment to creating an exceptional homebuying experience, KB Home is the #1 customer-ranked national homebuilder based on homebuyer satisfaction surveys from a leading third-party review site. 'We are pleased to offer homebuyers in the Seattle-Tacoma area spacious new two-story homes in the charming and scenic town of Orting,' said Ryan Kemp, President of KB Home's Seattle division. 'Bridgewater is situated on the banks of the Puyallup River, which features opportunities for bird-watching, fishing, kayaking, tubing and rafting. Homeowners will appreciate the stunning views of Mount Rainier and the Cascade foothills as well as the proximity to schools and family friendly parks, including Calistoga and Whitehawk Parks. At KB Home, we're here to help you achieve your dream with a personalized new home built uniquely for you and your life.' Innovative design plays an essential role in every home KB builds. The company's floor plans inspire contemporary living, with a focus on roomy, light-filled spaces that have easy indoor/outdoor flow. KB homes are engineered to be highly energy and water efficient and include features that support healthier indoor environments. They are also designed to be ENERGY STAR ® certified — a standard that fewer than 12% of new homes nationwide meet — offering greater comfort, well-being and utility cost savings than new homes without certification. Bridgewater is in a ideal location that offers homebuyers an exceptional lifestyle. The community is situated at the corner of Calistoga Way West and Chief Emmons Lane Northwest, providing easy access to Highways 167, 410 and 512, Interstate 5, downtown Tacoma, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and the area's major employment centers.

The new neighborhood is also near Foothills Trail, which offers walking, biking, running and horseback riding, and a short drive to Crystal Mountain Resort, White Pass and Mount Rainier National Park, which features hiking, biking, skiing and snowboarding. The Bridgewater sales office and model home are open for walk-in visits and private in-person tours by appointment.
