The full edition of The Christian Arcand Show for Wednesday, October 15th, 2025.

Even though Alex Bregman decided to opt out and gave all the signs of wanting to return to Boston, Arcand doesn't believe Bregman will be back with the Red Sox. Why Scott Boras and the price should drive the Sox away?

Then, almost everyone on the Sox coaching staff are currently expected to return, but that isn't the best strategy when trying to eliminate team errors.

And, Teoscar Hernandez has the most unique reason for not staying with the Dodgers in their team hotel in Milwaukee.

The headlines keep flowing in from the first-place Patriots, but its business as usual for Mike Vrabel's led squad before his return to Tennessee. What is missing from Vrabel's culture and if the Pats are set on making a deal, why running back is the only thing on the table?

Then, Doug Kyed from The Boston Herald joins the show to say that the Pats have exceeded his expectations, but won't make a major adjustment yet.

And, Joe Mazzulla thanked the media for participating in the coaches vs media game at Celtics' practice, but he'll never admit his true feelings for why he decided that game should happen.

A gage on Red Sox fans' desire to bring back Alex Bregman after he announced he will opt out and enter free agency. Also, the Sox still need a right-handed power bat with or without Bregman and that should be the focus over finding a new clubhouse leader.

Then, the President of the United States made a threat regarding Boston's involvement tin the World Cup for tonight's New England Nightly News.

And, it's very odd for the Sox to retain nearly all their coaches with the amount of errors and base running mistakes they made last season.

While the Patriots set their sights on Tennessee, the trade deadline slowly approaches and Mike Vrabel is being very coy about what will go down. How much more say will Vrabel have over Eliot wolf?

Then, in the Arcand Fire, James Franklin gets fired, the MLB LCS gets an update, and Malcolm Brogdon gets a farewell by going over all of his nicknames.

And, "The Big Dumper" Cal Raleigh could have a unique promotional crossover for Mariners' fans in Clickbait.

Christian reacts to Penn State firing James Franklin, updates both the ALCS and NLCS, and remembering Malcom Brogon as he retired in Arcand Fire.

In a rare political segment, the New England Nightly News features the President of the United States making a threat to move next year's World Cup out of Boston (even though Gillette Stadium is in Foxborough).

Alex Bregman will enter free agency and signs have pointed to him wanting to return, but do Red Sox fans feel the same way? And what would a loss of Alex Bregman do to the clubhouse?

Arcand is joined The Boston Herald's Doug Kyed to explain why his expectations about the Patriots won't dramatically change yet, the biggest difference in the Mike Vrabel culture, and why running back should be the priority when it comes to improving the Pats.

Christian dives into today's headlines about the Patriots including Mike Vrabel focusing more on the game with the Titans over getting revenge and the Patriots being serious about making a trade to improve the running back room.
