It's an existential question, and perhaps an appropriate one as the organization ramps up in the most pivotal offseason in recent memory. First, Chris and Ian recap the Sox representatives' time at the Premier12 tournament, including a quick diversion into the latest news on Noah Song and his military commitment. It's also everyone's favorite time - the deadline to protect players from the Rule 5 Draft! Chris and Ian agree on the likely players - 4 of 'em - added to the 40-man roster. Finally, after a quick examination of the list of 42 teams that would lose their affiliation under MLB's radical realignment proposal, the guys got into a topic they've been teasing all offseason: the potential trade of Mookie Betts. What teams are potential landing spots? What is a realistic return? All that and more on this episode of the podcast!
