DETROIT -- Dave Dombrowski was back in his old ballpark, exactly one year after being hired by the Boston Red Sox.He made the trip to Detroit with the Red Sox for a four-game series that began Thursday. Its Bostons first visit to Comerica Park this season.I guess mixed emotions. Many great memories, and also looking forward to seeing a lot of friends, he said. Its just unusual because the last time I was in the ballpark was a little over a year ago, and didnt end on the best of circumstances.Dombrowski was let go in early August after nearly 14 seasons as president and general manager of the Tigers. He wasnt on the market for long, taking over as Bostons president of baseball operations on Aug. 18.Detroit played a three-game series at Boston last month, so this isnt Dombrowskis first time going up against his former team. He said he had a chance to say hello to players and staff at that series.Although the move to Boston took Dombrowski to a different division, the Tigers and Red Sox are still competing against each other. Boston entered Thursday as the American Leagues top wild card. Detroit was 4 + games behind the Red Sox.Dombrowskis tenure in Detroit ended abruptly after the Tigers made several moves before the trade deadline last year. Detroit traded stars David Price and Yoenis Cespedes in some of those deals, receiving pitching prospects Daniel Norris, Matt Boyd and Michael Fulmer in return.Those young pitchers -- particularly Fulmer -- have been instrumental in keeping the Tigers in the playoff hunt this season. But Dombrowski wasnt interested in taking too much credit for that Thursday.At the time, we focused on trying to do the best job we possibly could and trying to get the best young talent to sort of build on the future, thinking it was important to get young pitching, but theres a lot of people involved in those discussions, Dombrowski said. Im happy for those players that theyve done well, but its really not my circumstances to comment.The Tigers kept much of their front office intact after Dombrowskis exit, promoting Al Avila to general manger. Now Dombrowskis focus is on the Red Sox and his new challenges with them.After a year, I think you start to settle in, he said.---Follow Noah Trister at www.Twitter.com/noahtristerCheap Nike Air Max 90 .

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The New England Patriots arent tipping their hand on whether Jimmy Garoppolo, Jacoby Brissett or someone else will start at quarterback Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, so Rex Ryan took matters into his own hands Wednesday.As Patriots receiver Julian Edelman wrapped up a conference call with Buffalo reporters, Ryan -- who just entered the room for his news conference -- leaned over into the speakerphone and asked Edelman a question.Julian, this is, uh, Walt Patulski from The Buffalo News, Ryan said. Are you playing quarterback this week?Huh? Edelman responded.Are you playing quarterback this week? Ryan repeated.Im gonna do whatever the coaches ask me to do, Edelman said, so if they ask me to go out and get a glass a water to someone on the sideline, Im gonna do that with a smile on my face if it helps our team win. So you can ask Coach that one.All right, Julian, I will, buddy, Rex said, as he laughed and walked to the lectern.Patulski was the No. 1 overall pick in the 1972 draft who played four seasons, 1972 to 1975, for the Bills.The Patriots have not indicated who will start Sundays game at quarterback, which will be the final game that Tom Brady will miss because of his four-game Deflategate suspension.Garoppolo (shoulder) and Brissett (thumb) have both practiced this week, but Ryan said Monday he does not expect to know the Patriots starter until kickoff. The Bills coach is prepared for the possibility of Edelman, a college quarterback at Kent State, starting for New England.I know how difficult it is to defend against a running quarterback, Ryan said following Sundays win over the Arizona Cardinals. Thats what we have to be ready [for] in case Edelman quarterbacks, right? I have a funny feeling he isnt going to be Brady back there.Although Ryan is getting ready for any potential Patriots starter, he said Wednesday he thinks he knows who New England will start -- but wont let reporters in on his hunch.If Im wrong, Ryan said, itll be like, Oh, he wasnt right.dddddddddddd. What a shock!Ryan, who on Sunday mentioned longtime Patriots quarterback Steve Grogan as New Englands potential starter this week, reached deeper into Patriots history for another option Wednesday.My sources tell me that Babe Parilli is gonna be the quarterback, Ryan said, referring to the Boston Patriots quarterback of the 1960s, who is now 86. He is definitely ... he doesnt move the way he used to, and Id be very confident. So well see what happens there.Ryans surprise question to Edelman was the third made-for-TV moment the Bills coach has offered as anticipation builds for the Bills and Patriots first meeting of the season.Ryan declared after Sundays win over Arizona that even if Patriots coach Bill Belichick started at quarterback, the Bills are coming after him. Then, on Monday, Ryan began his news conference with an impression of Belichick, mumbling to reporters that they would need to wait until Wednesday to get the teams injury report.Ryan stood by his loose demeanor Wednesday.Obviously, [Belichicks] style works a hell of a lot better than my style, so Ill give him that, Ryan said. But I learned a time ago: You got to be yourself in this league. That wouldnt work. If I tried to be like Bill Belichick, that would never work for me. Just like -- not that he ever would -- hes gonna try to be like someone else, that would never work for him.I think its hilarious when hes on [stage] there [at his news conferences] because its who he is, but its great. He does it better than anybody else. Some guys that try to copy that style, theyre phonies.Belichick didnt bite when asked earlier Wednesday about Ryan.Im just focused on getting ready for the Bills, he said. Im not really that in tune to all of that. Im sure its important to you guys, but its not really anything I spend much time with. ' ' '
