From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Some might say we're fighting over scraps. New Englanders argue we're fighting for culture. Cooper Leonard, Nat Gordon, Pat Brown and Sammy Hurwitz are debating which fan base controls the 6th state to the New England Union and which Red Sox free agent - Justin Turner, James Paxton, and Adam Duvall - should be prioritized in the coming weeks by Craig Breslow. A right-handed bat or assurance in the pitching staff isn't the end-all-be-all conversation the guys thought it would be.

Additionally, the guys discuss the recent report from Rob Bradford of WEEI and Baseball Isn't Boring on the potential trade between rivals that would send Alex Verdugo to the Bronx and second basemen Gleyber Torres to Boston.
