Speaker 1: Welcome boss, the territory, ladies and gentlemen. Unfortunately, the Red
Speaker 1: Sox could not pull off the sweep here today of
Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks. Final score, Dbacks wins seven to six, record
Speaker 1: falls to sixty eight and fifty nine, and once again
Speaker 1: they fall below five home shot at home. Man, I
Speaker 1: was really hoping they could get over that five mark
Speaker 1: here today, but we still got some season left to
Speaker 1: get that done. Not a sweep, but hey, series win
Speaker 1: still fine. If you ask me again, you drop three
Speaker 1: straight series before this. So good to see them get
Speaker 1: that done here over the last few days. But also
Speaker 1: good to see that they're gonna have a day off tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Sixteen straight games coming to an end. It's a lot
Speaker 1: of baseball, man, there's a lot of baseball. First off day.
Speaker 1: Since August third, they've Yeah, this is a team that's
Speaker 1: obviously we've said it like a million times. Uh, completely
Speaker 1: turned their season around.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: A lot of hard fought games along the way, a
Speaker 1: lot of good baseball along the way. It's not gonna
Speaker 1: hurt to have a day off. And then he got
Speaker 1: the Giants coming to town this weekend. Rafael Devers making
Speaker 1: his return to Feenway Park. That is gonna be rather
Speaker 1: interesting on Friday night. We'll talk about that in just
Speaker 1: a little bit. But as for the game here today,
Speaker 1: Peyton totally you gotta love totally day, right. Uh you know,
Speaker 1: he didn't have a bat outing here today. It was
Speaker 1: an okay day. He looked fine in the early going,
Speaker 1: but the d Backs eventually got to him. He started
Speaker 1: losing a little bit of command. But also credit to
Speaker 1: the d Backs. They were driving up the pitch count.
Speaker 1: Few too many pitch few too many hittable pitches over
Speaker 1: the zone. D Backs didn't miss, So credit to them.
Speaker 1: They got the job done here today. But hey, you
Speaker 1: know what, the Red Sox they battled back here today,
Speaker 1: mostly going off the long ball here, Nick so Guard
Speaker 1: first career home run, Jaron Duran with a home run
Speaker 1: here today as well, and Mickey freaking Gasper three straight
Speaker 1: games with a home run, huge three run shot to
Speaker 1: tie the game late. What's crazy about that? With Mickey
Speaker 1: Gasper coming into this series, he had two career home
Speaker 1: runs over ninety two career games. Three straight games with
Speaker 1: a home run, so he more than doubled his home
Speaker 1: run his career home run total in this series. Mickey
Speaker 1: Gasper great series overall good to see, but in the end,
Speaker 1: you know, the bullpen walk, Chapman, Tyron Guerrero, Eric Miller,
Speaker 1: they did their jobs. Unfortunately, Greg Weiser, I'm not able
Speaker 1: to get the job done. We've seen that many times
Speaker 1: with him, and hey, you go back to just a
Speaker 1: little bit ago, went back to Triple A. You know,
Speaker 1: Greg Weiser, he's just been way too inconsistent this year.
Speaker 1: Evannie Moran, I've never viewed. Moran is a guy that
Speaker 1: I would like to have in these tight spots late
Speaker 1: in game. He's a guy that I like coming in
Speaker 1: certain situations, you know, like kind of medium leverage rolls
Speaker 1: right in the middle of the game, going up against
Speaker 1: certain lefties, right, I like him in those spots. I've
Speaker 1: never really I think he's he's good, but there's just
Speaker 1: times where I don't know, he can just be off.
Speaker 1: And you you saw that here today, three straight walks
Speaker 1: at one point in the tenth inning. Yeah, that's just me.
Speaker 1: You know Moran again, I like him in those medium
Speaker 1: leverage spots, not in these high leverage spots. Necessarily. It
Speaker 1: is what it is, hard fog game here today. You
Speaker 1: couldn't get the w It's okay, it is what it is.
Speaker 1: We're moving on. We're on to the Giants, Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get to it. We're gonna talk about totally.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about the offense here today we'll preview the
Speaker 1: Giant series. And if you have a voicemail thought that
Speaker 1: you would like to leave and you would like to
Speaker 1: be that you would like to have played on today's show.
Speaker 1: Number is in the shat. Let me actually pin that
Speaker 1: to the top of the chat here. I can do
Speaker 1: that really quick. But phone number is three two one,
Speaker 1: two zero nine twenty one ninety nine. We'll get to
Speaker 1: those at the end of the show. Again, let me
Speaker 1: pin this to the top of the chat so you
Speaker 1: can find it easily. There we go, and I do
Speaker 1: see a super shat. We will get to that at
Speaker 1: the end of the show. I want to run through
Speaker 1: this really quick, so again, voicemails, super chats, and if
Speaker 1: anyone signs up for a membership, we'll get to those
Speaker 1: at the end of the show as well. If you
Speaker 1: kind of everybody hit that like button for me subscribe.
Speaker 1: If you are new, we've been struggling with the light
Speaker 1: goal as of late, we've been struggling a little bit.
Speaker 1: If we can get to let's get to fifty likes
Speaker 1: by the end of the show here today, that'd be amazing.
Speaker 1: So let's get to it here. Let's talk about Peyton. Totally, Peyton, totally, Peyton, totally.
Speaker 1: The guy's been just off the charts over his last
Speaker 1: couple of starts. Great against the Blue Jays, struck out
Speaker 1: fourteen against the A's. Looked like he came back down
Speaker 1: to earth a little bit here today, as you can
Speaker 1: see on the screen. Lots of cutters here today with
Speaker 1: Peyton totally thirty two percent cutters on the day against
Speaker 1: nineteen percent on the season, So he really upped that
Speaker 1: here today. Now, first time through he was leaning more
Speaker 1: on the four seamer. Then he started going more cutters,
Speaker 1: but eventually he just lost command a couple too many
Speaker 1: hard hit balls. Now again, got off to a great start.
Speaker 1: First inning, he struck out Vargas on a four seamer,
Speaker 1: up Corbyn Carrol got a base hit, but then moreno
Speaker 1: grinding into a double play. Second inning, he strikes out
Speaker 1: Aeronato and oh he threw him three pitches here, two
Speaker 1: cutters and a sinker, just blew them away. Then Taois
Speaker 1: striking out in a curve ball in on the hands.
Speaker 1: Third inning, now Fernandez, Fernandez had himself a pretty good
Speaker 1: day for the Diamondbacks here today he got a double
Speaker 1: and then Waldschmidt with a base hit. You got runners
Speaker 1: on the corners, but ground ball to Durban. He ends
Speaker 1: up throwing Fernandez out at home and then after that
Speaker 1: Corbyn Carrol Moreno back to back strikeout, so totally able
Speaker 1: to wiggle out of that a little bit a one
Speaker 1: two three fourth inning, but then fifth inning, Fernandez second
Speaker 1: double of the day, left a cutter right down the
Speaker 1: middle of the plate. Just not a competitive pitch. Waldschmidt
Speaker 1: with a double that made a two to one. Again
Speaker 1: another pitch right down the middle, hung a curve ball.
Speaker 1: Vargas with a flyout, and then Carol with a walk,
Speaker 1: so he got runners on first and second here, but
Speaker 1: then gabral Moreno with a double made it three to two.
Speaker 1: It was actually not a bad pitch in my opinion,
Speaker 1: but I don't think it was a competitive pitch for Moreno.
Speaker 1: It was a sinker on low inside, on the low
Speaker 1: inside corner to Moreno, it looked like Long wanted a
Speaker 1: little bit higher. I mean, I don't know. I mean
Speaker 1: he had the glove positioned a little bit higher before
Speaker 1: the pitch came in and in that spot where he
Speaker 1: ended up throwing it Moreno's actually done damaged on pitches
Speaker 1: in that spot, hitting three sixteen with a four to
Speaker 1: seventy four, slugging on the low inside corners. So that's
Speaker 1: why I think Wong probably wanted it a little higher.
Speaker 1: He hasn't been as effective up and in, so I
Speaker 1: think he might have just missed the spot a little
Speaker 1: bit there. But in the end, you know, it wasn't
Speaker 1: a bad day for Peyton totally. Five innings, six hits,
Speaker 1: three earned, six strikeouts, a couple of walks. Again, not
Speaker 1: a bad day necessarily, but the Red Sox coming in
Speaker 1: had a tough matchup against Brandon Fott. Now we talked
Speaker 1: about fought last night. Coming into today's game. The guy's
Speaker 1: been off the sharts ever since he came back from
Speaker 1: an injury. He went to the bullpen at one point
Speaker 1: earlier in the year, he went on the il, he
Speaker 1: missed some time, and then he went back to the
Speaker 1: rotation and he's had like an Elra around a one
Speaker 1: since coming back. The guy's been amazing, but the Red Sox.
Speaker 1: They jumped on him in the early going. Nick Soguard,
Speaker 1: the guy said, you know what, I don't want to
Speaker 1: I don't want to wait at all to do some damage.
Speaker 1: And he said, you know, I think I think it
Speaker 1: might be time for my first ever major league home run.
Speaker 3: He's not allowed to earn run in thirty two and
Speaker 3: two thirds, so a very tough customer here today, the
Speaker 3: twenty seven year old right hander. I fly ball right
Speaker 3: field up into the sun, Carol battling that back to
Speaker 3: the track, up against the wall head, that's gonna get
Speaker 3: out of here. He's gone into the bullpend had just
Speaker 3: kept carrying and carrying. Nick Soguarded with his first career
Speaker 3: home run.
Speaker 1: Nick Soguard, Man, I've said it many times. I love
Speaker 1: I love Nick Soguard. He's a guy that he's not
Speaker 1: gonna be, you know, like superstar player by any means,
Speaker 1: but he's just such a good glue guy, high IQ player.
Speaker 1: He's gonna give you good defense. He's gonna play the
Speaker 1: game hard, all right. Guy that run the bases runs
Speaker 1: the base as well. So congrats to Nick Soguard for
Speaker 1: getting his first career home run. He did it on
Speaker 1: the first picture of the game. You gotta love that.
Speaker 1: So the Red Sox had an early lead, won nothing.
Speaker 1: And then Jared Durant, who we've obviously talked about a
Speaker 1: lot this year, has had a tough season, but he
Speaker 1: was able to come through.
Speaker 3: Here. I fled to right field out the bat of
Speaker 3: Durant once again, Carol back, he stumbles and it goes
Speaker 3: into the bullpen. You gotta be kidding, man, Carol. Twice
Speaker 3: up against that bullpen fence and it gets out. So
Speaker 3: guard did it in the first inning. Number seventeen for
Speaker 3: Duran and Aren.
Speaker 1: So you know, like I've said about Duran, obviously tough year,
Speaker 1: but he is still capable of giving you some pop
Speaker 1: year and there obviously giving you the speed, good defense
Speaker 1: and lefts. So good to see Deryan, you know, get
Speaker 1: one out here. Seventeenth home run on the year. Also,
Speaker 1: Corbyn Carroll on both of these home runs. Ran into
Speaker 1: the wall with the Soguard home run and then he
Speaker 1: kind of tripped over himself a little bit going towards
Speaker 1: the wall. I wonder if he could have made an
Speaker 1: attempt at it, but I don't know. Corbyn Carroll not
Speaker 1: very comfortable out there in right field of Famway Park,
Speaker 1: but the Red Sox have a two to nothing lead
Speaker 1: in the early going. But then after this, Fot started
Speaker 1: to make some adjustments over the next few winnings. He
Speaker 1: actually on both of those home runs, he threw four
Speaker 1: seam fastballs, which has been his best pitch this year.
Speaker 1: So I think the Red Sox in the early going,
Speaker 1: we're like, all right, let's just look for the four seamer, right,
Speaker 1: he's gonna throw the four seamers. Let's just hunt that pitch.
Speaker 1: And he left a couple right over the zone, so
Speaker 1: the Red Sox took advantage. But he made the adjustment.
Speaker 1: He started decreasing the four seam usage, going more breaking
Speaker 1: and off speed after this, After the Duran homer, he
Speaker 1: struck out Wong and Seidi to finish off the third,
Speaker 1: fourth and the fifth inning he struck out Williard, Durban,
Speaker 1: and Gasper, and then in the fifth inning he worked
Speaker 1: around a Duran base hit. So he was looking really
Speaker 1: good as the Diamondbacks got to totally a little bit.
Speaker 1: But then the Red Sox they started rallying a little bit.
Speaker 1: In the fifth inning, Duram with the base hit or not.
Speaker 1: The fifth inning, sorry, sixth inning. Duran did have another
Speaker 1: base hit today in the fifth inning, but Willier with
Speaker 1: a base hit, Wilson with a base hit, and here comes,
Speaker 1: like Tom Karen said on the nesson post game, Mick
Speaker 1: the stick Gasper.
Speaker 3: High fly ball right field. Come on, Carol Beckon up,
Speaker 3: back it up, pack it up, puck it up.
Speaker 4: That's gone.
Speaker 3: Mickey again, McKey Gasper goes downtown.
Speaker 1: Dave O'Brien was all kinds of fired up there, let's
Speaker 1: actually finish that off. Let's see, let's see what else
Speaker 1: he had to say.
Speaker 3: Hoy, you like that the Red Socks him tied it
Speaker 3: at five. Top three run Bomber right his third home
Speaker 3: run in his many games.
Speaker 1: Dave O'Brien was fired up on that call. I was
Speaker 1: fired up on that call. I'm like, oh man, this
Speaker 1: is this is awesome. Mickey Gasper. Three straight games with
Speaker 1: a home run. You gotta love that. That did tie
Speaker 1: the game out. Right before that, in the top half
Speaker 1: of the inning, Greg Weissert, again inconsistent all year, gave
Speaker 1: up a double to Aeronado Tawa. He hit a deep
Speaker 1: fly ball to center field. Shout out to SETI made
Speaker 1: a really nice grab out in center. But then here
Speaker 1: comes Lara's new bar with a pink hit, pink shit appearance.
Speaker 1: Weissert just with a meatball down the middle of the
Speaker 1: play two rung shot. They give the d Backs to
Speaker 1: five to two lead, but Gasper coming through a big
Speaker 1: three rung shot there to tie the game at five.
Speaker 1: And then the Red Sox bullpen got to work here.
Speaker 1: Eric Miller did give up a base hit in a walk,
Speaker 1: but he got Perdomo to fly out. He struck out
Speaker 1: Carol and Aernato. He was pumped up coming off the mound.
Speaker 1: Tyrone Guerrero took care of the eighth inning with a
Speaker 1: one two three. Shapman with a good ninth inning. He
Speaker 1: did walk wald Schmidt. He ended up moving over to
Speaker 1: third base with a ground out and a steal, but
Speaker 1: then he struck out Moreno hung. Youre miles an hour,
Speaker 1: so you know what you gave, you you got. He
Speaker 1: absolutely had a shot here to win this one, but
Speaker 1: then we go to extra innings. Red Sox unable to
Speaker 1: come up with the game winner in the bottom of
Speaker 1: the ninth, so into the tenth inning we go Moran.
Speaker 1: He comes in, Perdomo lays down a sack bunt runner
Speaker 1: over to third, Aeronado a blooper past the drawn in infield.
Speaker 1: They were drawn in obviously because he got the runner
Speaker 1: at third. You got one out. So yeah, unfortunately you
Speaker 1: just the d Backs had a little bit of luck
Speaker 1: on their side right there. Moreno ends up scoring that
Speaker 1: made a six to five, But then Moran three straight
Speaker 1: walks to Towa, McCann and Fernandez that brought in a
Speaker 1: run that gave the d Backs a seven to five lead,
Speaker 1: and unfortunately for the Red Sox could not come up
Speaker 1: with the game tying knock. In the bottom of the tenth,
Speaker 1: a couple of groundouts scored a run, but then Durbin
Speaker 1: popped up to end it. Final score seven to six.
Speaker 1: D Backs. Hey, credit to them here today. They were
Speaker 1: they outlasted the Red Sox here today. Gritty performance from
Speaker 1: them without Katl Marte. I guess Katl Marte and Mike
Speaker 1: Haysen they're going to be meeting tomorrow. See how that goes.
Speaker 1: It's obviously been a weird situation. But tip of the
Speaker 1: cap here to the d Backs without one of the
Speaker 1: better players in the game and Marte, they got the
Speaker 1: job done here today in extra innings. So Hey, for
Speaker 1: the Red Sox, gritty performance, just not able to get
Speaker 1: it done. And you know, you look at the bullpen.
Speaker 1: They've had a couple of key injuries, especially towards the
Speaker 1: back end and with Whitlock with Slayton. Could that have
Speaker 1: been a bit different here today with those guys healthy.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it is what it is. We're
Speaker 1: on to the Giants coming to Femway Park. Raffie Dever's
Speaker 1: coming back to Fenway Park for the first time since
Speaker 1: getting traded to the Giants. Before we get to that, though,
Speaker 1: we do have a word from our sponsor. I'll be

Speaker 1: Alright, let's get to the giants, shall we. And with
Speaker 1: the giants, it's been an extremely disappointing year for them.
Speaker 1: They had high hopes coming into the year, all right,
Speaker 1: they I mean to me, they were looking primed coming
Speaker 1: into the year. You got some really good talent, You
Speaker 1: got some really good talent. You had brought a new
Speaker 1: manager and Tony Vtello, and uh, it's just been a
Speaker 1: disaster of a year for the Giants. You know, speaking
Speaker 1: of Raffi did have that moment in Miami where a
Speaker 1: picture ounner Jonah Cox was coming in and Raffi was
Speaker 1: like waving him off, and that obviously was not a
Speaker 1: good look. So it's just been a a terrible year
Speaker 1: for the Giants. So but doesn't mean you could take
Speaker 1: them lightly, of course. Yes, Raffi coming back to Fenway
Speaker 1: Park for the first time. We talked about it the
Speaker 1: other day. I wonder what the reception is going to be, like,
Speaker 1: I feel like it's mostly gonna be positive because obviously,
Speaker 1: Raffi was a great player for the Red Sox, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're looking at who's had the most
Speaker 1: home runs in Red Sox history at third base, well
Speaker 1: your answer is Raffi Devers. Obviously, you put up great numbers,
Speaker 1: helped you win the World Series in twenty eighteen, right,
Speaker 1: you know, twenty twenty one postseason almost making it back
Speaker 1: to the World Series. So yeah, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: positives with Raffi obviously, but you know, just how everything
Speaker 1: went last year. You know, Tristan Cossa is going down,
Speaker 1: didn't want to move over to first base, but you know,
Speaker 1: then you had the whole DH thing from spring training
Speaker 1: after bringing in Bregmann. So you know, arguments on both sides.
Speaker 1: It is what it is, right, But in the end, Rafi,
Speaker 1: he's in San Francisco. Now what can you do now,
Speaker 1: you know? Going back to that, yeah, I mean you
Speaker 1: had arguments on both sides right where you know Raffi,
Speaker 1: the Red Sox did not communicate with him like I
Speaker 1: think they should have in that offseason, right, Obviously they
Speaker 1: had their eyes on guys like Bregman, like Aeronato, and
Speaker 1: to me, I think it would have made sense to
Speaker 1: communicate with Raffi in that situation. But then when Costas
Speaker 1: ended up going down, I think there's absolutely an argument
Speaker 1: where hey play some first base. Obviously it's not a
Speaker 1: not an easy situation to move over to a new
Speaker 1: position for the first time, but it is what it
Speaker 1: is right to me think in that moment you got
Speaker 1: to step up for your teammates and it didn't happen. Again,
Speaker 1: understand both sides of it. You know, it's it is
Speaker 1: what it is. But like I said, he's in San
Speaker 1: fran Now. Everyone's obviously moved on at this point. But
Speaker 1: I think for the most part, you're gonna get a
Speaker 1: good ovation at Famway Park, right, because in the end,
Speaker 1: he did great things for the Red Sox, right, put
Speaker 1: up monster numbers. So it is what it is. As
Speaker 1: for the Giants, right, No, Matt Chapman, he's been hurt,
Speaker 1: he's been down, but you still got some bats here, obviously, Raffi,
Speaker 1: who were also with Raffi the beginning of the year.
Speaker 1: He got off to a terrible start, but he's been
Speaker 1: hitting a lot better over the last couple of months.
Speaker 1: I really would not be surprised if he ends up
Speaker 1: hitting a home run in the series. I just feel like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel like he's gonna be swinging
Speaker 1: for the fences in this one. I think he's gonna
Speaker 1: try and unload a little bit, so Raffi, He's gonna
Speaker 1: have a little extra juice in this series, in my opinion.
Speaker 1: But then you got guys like Willie Domas, Bryce Elcrick, Right,
Speaker 1: Bryce Elcrick, Holy cow, this guy's been showing some good
Speaker 1: things so far. Jung that's a pesky guy, all right.
Speaker 1: Drew Gilbert who's been leading a lot leading off a
Speaker 1: lot for the Giants. That's a high energy kind of
Speaker 1: a player, so you got some bats that you're gonna
Speaker 1: have to work around in this lineup.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: As for the pitching matchups, it's they have not been
Speaker 1: officially announced from the Giants side on fangrafts as of
Speaker 1: right now, it looks like because remember you got the
Speaker 1: day off, but for us tomorrow. But for the Giants
Speaker 1: they're gonna be playing Matt Wilkinson the tug boat getting
Speaker 1: called up. He's starting here tonight against the Guardians and
Speaker 1: then Landing Roop he's pitching tomorrow. So the way it's
Speaker 1: lined up right now is Logan Webb for game one,
Speaker 1: Blade Tidwell for Game two, and then Carson wizen Hunt
Speaker 1: for game three. Again, no official announcements there yet, but
Speaker 1: that's the way it looks like it's lining up as
Speaker 1: of right now. That can change, of course, however. For
Speaker 1: the Red Sox, you do know who's going to be going.
Speaker 1: Sonny Gray, who's looked really good over the last couple
Speaker 1: of starts here, Patrick Sandoval coming off a rough outing
Speaker 1: his last time out against the Blue Jays, and then
Speaker 1: Jake Bennett, who was also a little up and down
Speaker 1: in his last star Also with Jake Bennett or sorry
Speaker 1: Patrick Sandoval, not against the Blue Jays the Pirates. He
Speaker 1: got roughed up by the Pirates last Sunday, so he's
Speaker 1: hoping for a bounce back performance now with Jake Bennett
Speaker 1: for his side set. He got pushed back a little
Speaker 1: bit because they're trying to manage those innings over the
Speaker 1: final few weeks of the season. Here he was actually
Speaker 1: throwing off the mound at Famway Parks, so that tells me,
Speaker 1: and the intensity of it was pretty high. That tells
Speaker 1: me that he was probably not having a good feel
Speaker 1: in his last outing. He really wanted to kind of
Speaker 1: dial things in. And you know, I said this, I
Speaker 1: don't think fatigue is a factor, to be completely honest.
Speaker 1: I know he's at a career high for innings right now,
Speaker 1: but the v low is up in his last start.
Speaker 1: Stuff look good, I think it. You know, maybe there
Speaker 1: could be a little bit of fatigue, but I mean,
Speaker 1: if you're looking at it from a v low point
Speaker 1: of view, look good. So to me, I think more
Speaker 1: of it is more of the the repertoire of pitches
Speaker 1: and even possibly the sequencing of his pitching or of
Speaker 1: his pitches. Sorry where you know, he's been very big
Speaker 1: obviously this year, throwing four seemers up in the zone,
Speaker 1: throwing the two seemers in zone to get ground balls,
Speaker 1: and then obviously change ups low. So I feel like
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of predictability with him over the
Speaker 1: last couple of starts, as teams are getting scattered reports
Speaker 1: on him more so, they're kind of got a good
Speaker 1: idea of what they're looking for. So I think I'm
Speaker 1: hoping at least that you start to see a few
Speaker 1: more breaking pitches the rest of the way. So maybe, again,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't watch his side session obviously,
Speaker 1: but he was obviously working on something feel wise, and
Speaker 1: maybe he wanted to have it like a in an
Speaker 1: environment where he could work on those things right instead
Speaker 1: of just doing it in the bullpen. So it's interesting
Speaker 1: that he was throwing off the mound f Fmway Park,
Speaker 1: so intrigued to see how that starts, how that start goes,
Speaker 1: and then Sunny Gray last time out against the Pirates,
Speaker 1: he was great. Seven shutout innings, he struck out seven.
Speaker 1: He's been phenomenal this year, set a career high and
Speaker 1: wins in that start with fifteen. He's been great. Had
Speaker 1: a little bump there a few weeks ago, a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago. But he's back on track here. And
Speaker 1: then Sandoval obviously he got really roughed up. The guy's
Speaker 1: command just wasn't good. He gave up nine hits, three
Speaker 1: walks over four innings. Just too many hit able picches,
Speaker 1: too many pitches in zone. It was an abysmal performance.
Speaker 1: But see how that goes. Let's see how that goes.
Speaker 1: Let's get to some voicemails, shall we do we have
Speaker 1: any voicemails? We do? We got a couple of voicemails here, what.
Speaker 4: Do we get Jules mctharne. Too many walks and we
Speaker 4: don't do well against bad teams. So I don't feel
Speaker 4: really good about the Giants series.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Robbie, Thank you, my friend, Thank you, my friend.
Speaker 1: It is it's always interesting, right with the with the
Speaker 1: Red Sox against these teams that haven't been performing very well.
Speaker 1: But uh, I will say with the Giants, well, it
Speaker 1: has been a tough year for them. But it's that's
Speaker 1: why it's so crazy to me, because this team is
Speaker 1: full of talent, right, you got Logan web going Game one,
Speaker 1: and then obviously you got some big bats here with
Speaker 1: Raffi and Bryce Eldridge looking very promising, right, Willie Thomas.
Speaker 1: So we'll see how they do here. Maybe the Red
Speaker 1: Sox get a little revved up too with Raffi. You know,
Speaker 1: the fans at Femway Park, they're gonna be revved up
Speaker 1: for this one, seeing Raffi for the first time. So
Speaker 1: I feel like you're gonna have some pretty good energy
Speaker 1: at Fenway Park on Friday. Hopefully that can with the
Speaker 1: day off tomorrow too, get some rest, guys can sleep
Speaker 1: in a little bit, do what they gotta do, and
Speaker 1: then you got Femway Park's gonna be buzzing on Friday.
Speaker 1: We'll see. But back to the beginning here, too many
Speaker 1: walks and we don't do well against bad teams. So
Speaker 1: hopefully with Sandoval especially, the command is back to at
Speaker 1: least a decent place in this next start. And hopefully
Speaker 1: Bennett he can get some whatever he was working on
Speaker 1: at Femway Park. Hopefully he's got himself right. So thank
Speaker 1: you for the voicemail, my friend. What have we got
Speaker 1: for the next one?
Speaker 5: I'm up parents Syracuse watching the Bousa beat the Syracuse Mets.
Speaker 5: I just wanted to say I don't think it's talked
Speaker 5: about enough, but some both sucks are on a sixteen
Speaker 5: s great games stretch and the exhaustion and just pitching
Speaker 5: up to them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's why to me, like, how do I
Speaker 1: say this without sounding I don't want to sound like
Speaker 1: I'm like, like a what's the right word. Even with
Speaker 1: me doing the postgame show for sixteen days in a row,
Speaker 1: even that starts to get a little tiring. I can't
Speaker 1: even imagine what it's like playing playing baseball sixteen days
Speaker 1: in a row. These guys are absolutely needing a bit
Speaker 1: of a day off. So, yeah, completely agree with you.
Speaker 1: It's a lot of baseball, man. I feel like, you know,
Speaker 1: I feel like the schedule itself this year it's been
Speaker 1: You've just had like a lot of games in a
Speaker 1: row a couple of times, and then you've had some
Speaker 1: some odd off days at times. I'd like some Mondays off,
Speaker 1: and you know, it's like, I don't know, very interesting
Speaker 1: schedule this year. But no, I agree, Uh, yeah, these
Speaker 1: guys going at it. You know, even Wilson too, right,
Speaker 1: you know, we were talking about the injuries that he's
Speaker 1: been having over the last few weeks or so, you know,
Speaker 1: even for him. You know, great to have a day off,
Speaker 1: so it's gonna be much appreciated from everyone on that team.
Speaker 1: So we did have a super chat here. I believe,
Speaker 1: let's play. Let's get to the super chat Steve. What's
Speaker 1: going on, Steve DFA. Weissert just useless at this point.
Speaker 1: Moran skating on thin ice as well. Yeah. I imagine
Speaker 1: when Slayton and Whitlock when they come back. Oh man,
Speaker 1: I got some thunder outside here. I got some thunder outside.
Speaker 1: But I imagine when those guys are gonna come back. I
Speaker 1: believe Weissert will probably go back down, but then you're
Speaker 1: gonna have the rosters expanding soon. So I wonder if
Speaker 1: you end up keeping sir in the bullpen. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but being Moran again, I said it earlier. Not a
Speaker 1: fan of him in the high leverage spots. I'm better
Speaker 1: with him and more of those medium and low leverage situations.
Speaker 1: So here's what it is. I think we also did
Speaker 1: I see a new member in the chat. Hold on
Speaker 1: a second, I think we saw a new member. We
Speaker 1: pull this up here, we do. Emily has become a
Speaker 1: monster member. We got to play the music. Emily. Thank
Speaker 1: you for becoming a Monster member. You've been hanging out
Speaker 1: here all the time. Appreciate becoming a Monster member. Appreciate
Speaker 1: that memberships are open if anyone else would like to
Speaker 1: sign up for that. We are over fifty members at
Speaker 1: this point, so we're we're on the road to We're
Speaker 1: gonna try and get to a huscred members. I don't
Speaker 1: know if we'll be able to get there by the
Speaker 1: end of the year, but hey, that'd be a cool
Speaker 1: milestone to hit. So Emily, thank you for helping us
Speaker 1: get towards that goal. Appreciate you again. We are in
Speaker 1: the early stages of the Monster membership, so eventually I'm
Speaker 1: gonna think of ways to expand that a little bit.
Speaker 1: Maybe at some point, you know, do some member only
Speaker 1: streams or whatever, member only chats or whatever else. I
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe a discord at some point. That'd be
Speaker 1: pretty fun. But yeah, I'm gonna be thinking of more
Speaker 1: perks for that. So stay tuned, Stay tuned, everybody. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna get out of here and we're gonna we're gonna
Speaker 1: go enjoy the day off tomorrow as well. It's been
Speaker 1: a lot of baseball, went through that losing stretch a
Speaker 1: little bit good to see the team get back on
Speaker 1: track over the last few days. Let's see if they
Speaker 1: can stay on track here. I really want this Red
Speaker 1: Sox team to start getting a bit more consistent.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: While the fifteen games in a row, fifteen wins in
Speaker 1: a row was awesome, well, that whole stretch was amazing,
Speaker 1: the last week or so you had all the losing, right,
Speaker 1: So it's like, can we just get back to like
Speaker 1: kind of a neutral point here the rest of the way.
Speaker 1: I don't mind a few losses along the way, but
Speaker 1: let's start being a bit more consistent here. So either way,
Speaker 1: lots of baseball as of late. It's gonna be nice
Speaker 1: to have a day off tomorrow and be a fun
Speaker 1: game on Friday. Fun game on Friday. But everyone, I'm
Speaker 1: out of here. If you kind of the way out,
Speaker 1: hit the leg button for me, subscribe if you're new,
Speaker 1: and we'll see you Friday. I don't know the
