Alex Cora wouldn't commit to Nick Pivetta making his next start after giving up four runs in the Boston Red Sox's 9-4 win over the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night at Fenway Park.

Lauren Willand looks at Pivetta's performance and wonders if he will get another chance at a start or if the Red Sox will move him to the bullpen. Later Lauren discusses a players' only meeting Alex Verdugo held and how he set the tempo for the game not only in the first inning, but with that meeting that took place prior to Tuesday's game.

The Boston Red Sox fell 10-1 to the Seattle Mariners on Monday -- now what?

NESN's Lauren Willand looks at Tanner Houck's split after he struggled the second time through the lineup once again.

It was an ugly weekend at Fenway Park as the Boston Red Sox were swept by the St. Louis Cardinals in a three-game set.

NESN's Lauren Willand looks at what went wrong during the Red Sox-Cardinals series and discusses Kenley Jansen's two blown saves and three pitch clock violations. Later Lauren also looks at another error by Kiké Hernández and what needs to be done next in terms of where he plays.

Lauren takes a look at James Paxton's start -- his first in 766 days -- and details why Red Sox fans should be encouraged by what they saw. She then talks about Chris Sale's start -- which went eight innings -- and wonders who could be the odd man out in the rotation as it continues to get healthier, especially if Paxton can be consistent.

Lauren ends the show on the mental health minute as she talks about what's next for her career!

The Boston Red Sox made a move that fans had been waiting for for quite some time.
