64 Deep: A Red Sox Podcast

Red Sox Are 2-7 | The One Where The Front Office Fails... Again


Listen Later

The Red Sox dropped to 2-7 and this front office has receipts piling up. James Tibbs III — the prospect Boston traded to the Dodgers — just hit 3 home runs in one game for Triple-A Oklahoma City. He has 7 HRs in 8 games hitting .514. Meanwhile the Red Sox can't score.

Munetaka Murakami, the slugger Boston lost to the White Sox in free agency, has 4 HRs in 8 career games and just made history as the most prolific Japanese-born power hitter in MLB debut history. The Red Sox pivoted to Willson Contreras instead — he's hitting .150.

Kyle Harrison struck out 8 in his Brewers debut. The Brewers are 5-1. Boston traded him for Caleb Durbin, who started the year 0-for-19 and got booed at Fenway.

Trevor Story is hitting .138 with 13+ strikeouts and committed an error in Houston. Jarren Duran is at .167. Both Duran AND Durbin were pinch-hit for in Saturday's one-run loss. If you have a real lineup, that never happens.

Big John and Big Country break down every ugly angle of this 2-7 start — the offensive free fall, the front office failures, and why this roster is at least one big-time bat short.

Deep Analysis. Deeper Frustration. Red Sox Talk.
