Another integral member of the 18' Championship team is no longer with the Red Sox. Nate Eovaldi signed with the Rangers this week and we're saying our goodbyes. The Red Sox signed Corey Kluber in response and we're comparing what kind of production he can bring to this rotation vs Eovaldi. With JD and Eovaldi no longer on the team, we're looking back at the 2022 trade deadline and wondering why the Red Sox didn't offload them midseason if they weren't going to keep them. Jared tries to pump optimism into the podcast early on before Tyler brings him down. The new phrase we're going with is "What If?" What If the Red Sox are good? What If they're great? There's a good chance they're not, but they might be! Tyler also commits to wearing a naughty maid outfit and cleaning Jared's house if Garrett Whitlock gets demoted to the bullpen during the season. Thanks for sticking with us in 2022, see you next year!
