What a weird, exhausting week of .500 baseball. 2/3 against the Mariners, 1/3 against the Giants. Do you think it's an FSG media trick to get more ratings that they keep this team just interesting enough to have us watching but just bad enough to not play good? IDK just a thought.

We saw our old girlfriend (Rafael Devers) on a date with another woman (The San Francisco Giants). She (our old girlfriend Rafael Devers) looks well.

Kristian Campbell has been sent to Worcester. Roman Anthony now has his first major league home run. The Red Sox hover just above .500 and I swear to God if I have to see that Pod On Lansdowne .500 meme one more time I will put America's Sweetheart Liam Fennessy in a tower far, far away.

Oops all punt years!

"We traded Devers based on our team alignment. His visions and views did not align with the team. We are building an in-office culture. This was a baseball trade."

Huge LOAD! Rubbish, trash, garbage, gruel, gunk. Call this year a big f'ing kablooey. You traded Rafael Devers and what did you get back for it? Did you even think about your actions, SAM? CRAIG?

Put this year next to the rest of them since 2018. Underwhelming, underperforming garbage.

You did it - you son of a nutcracker you did it! Ladies, gentlemen, co, we have Roman Anthony! The kid gets to develop at the major league level and the big three are reunited.

We discuss the furious Angels series and the quite enjoyable Yankees series. Did you guys see Carlos Rodon? Booty cheeks, right?

Unfortunately we will forever hear about the Ceddanne short porch home run, but we just want to remind the haters that shutup!

Have you, great fan of Red Sox nation, ever heard the phrase "It's over, we're back..."? You have?? Why is that?

Swept by the Brewers, big woof. Short-rallied once, and walked off twice. Definitively, it's over. Hendriks to the IL. This is the "it's over" part.

But then - won the Braves series! The Braves are a way better team than the Brewers. Big show ups from Trevor Story and Garrett Crochet. This is the "we're back" part.

Pick a lane and my god let it be the winning one.

Sorry, we get a little angy in this episode. Red Sox fans understand.

Ever been so mid you split a series with the Baltimore Orioles? I, personally, would never. Those chuckle-ducks in Boston seem to have a different idea.

If I have to watch another year of this clown team I am going to get into my little clown car and drive myself over to clown town to check myself in to the clown hospital to get evaluated for clown-schizophrenia. I'm sure you all feel the same way.

The topics? The Braves series (clown), the Mets series (less clown), the Orioles series (maximum clown).

Also, stop sending death threats to players. This is a threat.

Bring in the closer, it's time for us to go home.

Hopefully you enjoyed this three part mini-series from Campanelli Stadium. We enjoyed the Rox, and we certainly did NOT enjoy the Red Sox game.

There's an interview in this episode with Caitlin, the assistant general manager for the Brockton Rox. It might be one of the night's highlights.

Thank you, Brockton!

Welcome to Brockton part 2 - the heart of the order. This one has some interviews of the game go-ers at Campanelli Stadium, get to know the people!

We do a little roster construction in this one. The rotation gets some eyes, the prospects get some eyes, and we're hopeful the Red Sox hire us as ongoing GM consultants.

Keep up with our visit to Brockton!

They had us back in Brockton - on purpose! What a privilege to be both in-person at a baseball game while also watching our favorite team, the Boston Red Sox.

So this is where the fun begins. This is part 1 of a three part mini-series. A fit check, a food check, a vibes check, a baseball check, and finally, a mic check.

On the night of this episode, new city connects JUST. DROPPED.

This week was all about drama. The Red Sox? More like the Red Soaps! (Like Soap Opera)

We have a LOT of takes - it is truly an honor to be able to give our unbridled opinions. They tell us this is a good team. We tell you we've seen this team for 4 years now.

Let me make out stances as of 5/11/25 perfectly clear:

We learn a lot about the state of affairs from former colleague and friend of the pod, Jim Cain. What is it like to look at the Woo Sox right now - and how did Jim get to be an announcer?

In non-baseball terms, it might be fair to say these last few years have felt like "it's always something" with the Red Sox. Based on the insight from Jim and in the words of Mrs. Doubtfire - "Help is on the way!"

Jim gives a lot of great perspective with the current state of affairs. Come hang!
