We list the most underrated National League players - from the Dodgers to the Pirates. That list does include Andy Pages, most underrated bystander of the criminal investigation into Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz.

The first free agent dominos are falling. Josh Naylor has re-signed with the Mariners for 5 years and Ryan Yarbrough returns to the Yankees. The second part is important, he has a 7.00+ ERA against the Red Sox. The Yankees suck.

We are introducing a new offseason segment, Under The Microscope. We focused on the Red Sox first base need. What do Pete Alonso and Kazuma Okamoto look like when you zoom in?

Firstly, let's get one this straight - Cam Schlittler is illiterate. He can not read, he can not write, and he can not stop getting cooked by fans. That's right folks, Cam Schlitter used AI to write an apology to the city he was raised in. It's a very common thing for absolute clowns to do.

Lucas Giolito and the Boston Red Sox are in agreement on declining their mutual option. The Boston Red Sox did not extend Giolito a qualifying offer. It's a shame, he would have been such a wonderful 60-day IL.

Trevor Story, on the other hand, opts in to the remaining two years of his deal. We're happy about it. The off-season started by needing all four infield positions filled, now you only need three. We will welcome Trevor Story with open arms! At second base!

The Blue Jays blew it. This writer actually dozed off for a moment because he thought the Blue Jays had it in the bag. Even funnier was this was all done at the hands of impending free agent Miguel Rojas.

Yamamoto, king of the roost, World Series MVP, has accomplished more in this World Series than most other pitchers in history; and most importantly, more than all the 2024 World Series Yankees team combined.

Now, we look at the Red Sox offseason. There is a lot of work today, I'm sure our buddy Brez is just as aware. Halloween is over, bucko, now give us the candy.

Disclaimer: We love Japan.

The World Series would be a lot more exciting if the Red Sox were playing in it against the Dodgers. Say one nice thing about the Toronto Blue Jays! See? You can't.

Historic moments are happening left and right. Ohtani's 3-home run game, Addison Barger's pinch hit grand slam, Yamamoto's back-to-back complete games. We have agreed that the 2025 Blue Jays are a significantly better team than the 2024 Yankees.

Red Sox fans are in the waiting period. We have some early off-season roster construction, even "The Bregman Backup Plan" (TM). We've got eyes on Mayer, we've got eyes on Campbell. Kristian, not Isaiah.

Wow, if it wasn't two teams that no one wanted! Can't wait for this to go down as one of the world series that ever happened. It'll be blue on blue crime.

We hope both teams lose. Let's go, nobody.

Jose De Leon elected free agency.

I miss the Red Sox.

Webster - Dodgers in 5

The Seattle Red Sox are on fire. They just crushed The Blue Jays like it was nothing. You know, The Blue Jays? That team that crushed that fraud team the New York Yankees?

There is much to consider. The Red Sox coaching staff has been invited back. Most of them, anyway. Even the ones we don't like. There's also a word on the street that Aaron Boone will not be returning to the Yankees. Sad!

Anyone else see that press conference the other day? What did you think?

We have an early off-season list. It's the middle infield. The rotation goes without saying.

The Red Sox blew it. They blew it, plain and simple. You think the Yankees are a good enough team to win on their own? Look at how the Blue Jays series has been going for them.

Another year of being doomed to hate-watch. Crochet fought for it. So did Story, Chapman, Yoshida, Eaton, Sogard. You know, the usual suspects.

Jack Webster will be hitching his wagon to the Seattle Mariners, he wants to see their first world series trip. Will they ever beat The Dodgers? Los Doyers? Unlikely.

Though, let's be honest, a 2025 Mariners vs Brewers World Series would slap. I might even buy a hat.

It's the playoffs. The air is different, the strategy is different, but our hope for the results against the Yankees is the same.

Game one of the wild card series takes place in New York at the new, improperly built, Yankee Stadium. Did you know at the time of building the new stadium, the rules were that all outfield walls had to be a minimum of 325 feet? And the Yankees just ignored that?

As it stands, we are expecting Crochet vs Fried game 1 and Bello vs Rodon game 2. We haven't looked at game 3 yet. The prediction is Sox in 2.

WARNING: VOLUME.

The Red Sox, for the first time since 2021, have clinched a playoff spot. Hear our live reactions from the bottom of the 9th.

Ceddanne Rafaela loves the big moment, and boy does he ever. A centerfielder with a feel for the moment. The "clutch" gene, in medical terms.

Dare I say, this team's got guts. On to October.
