This week on Pod by the River, the crew breaks down a whirlwind stretch of roster moves as the Red Sox add Shane Drohan, Tyler Uberstine, and David Sandlin to the 40-man roster while saying goodbye to Luis Guerrero, Brennan Bernardino, and Chris Murphy in a series of rapid-fire trades at the Rule 5 protection deadline. But the real fireworks come when Brady and Justin stop being polite and get into a series of heated debate over Jordan Hicks and for some reason Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

Meet our newest cohost/Swiss army knife, Owen Brown, a recent graduate from MCLA with a passion for baseball so deep that he actually plays in a league that replicates the game's earliest days down to the uniforms. The Mookie Betts trade, Alex Bregman, and Kyle Schwarber are just a few topics touched on.

In our season two finale and what is likely to be Hogdale's last episode as a cohost, the boys go over the final series of the season, a sad loss to the Yankees in the Wild Card round. This is all somewhat overshadowed, however, by Hogdale's announcement that he has signed a contract with Barstool, the culmination of a lifelong dream to talk sports for a living. Emotions, pride, and bittersweetness ensues.
