Host Gabby (Hurlbut) Maljanian breaks down the Red Sox's latest roster moves, analyzing Lowe's potential impact and how he fits into Boston's first base situation. The discussion covers Marcelo Mayer's season-ending injury, its implications for the team's infield depth, and the recent series against the Miami Marlins. Key topics include bullpen management challenges, Lucas Giolito's impressive start, and how these factors might affect Boston's wild card chances.

Don't miss this in-depth analysis of the Boston Red Sox's path to postseason success. Will Lowe's addition be enough to overcome recent setbacks and secure a playoff spot?
