Locked On Red Sox - Daily Podcast On The Boston Red Sox

Kim Ng's introductory presser as MLB's first female team GM was a lesson in self-awareness and the realities of being a woman in sports. Gabrielle discusses some of her quotes from today's event, before launching into Part 3 of her conversation with Javi, host of Locked On Padres about what the Red Sox offseason and 2021 might look like. Will they be any good? Will they bring back Jackie Bradley Jr. or Mitch Moreland? Can they depend on Chris Sale and Eduardo Rodriguez?
