    Red Sox Garrett Crochet Is Not Chris Sale

    We dive into the Red Sox exciting acquisition of left-handed pitcher Garrett Crochet from the White Sox. How good is Crochet, and what are the potential red flags? We discuss his bold claim of allegiance to Sox Nation, what his future might look like in Boston—including the possibility of an extension—and where he fits into the Sox’s rotation alongside last season’s newcomer Lucas Giolito. With Corbin Burnes still unsigned and Max Fried heading to the Yankees, we ask: could the Red Sox swoop in and land a top starter? We look at potential free-agent targets like Walker Buehler, Jack Flaherty, and Sean Manaea, as well as possible trade candidates including Luis Castillo from Seattle and Jared Jones from Pittsburgh. Could the Red Sox make a splash in the right-handed bat market? We weigh in on potential targets like Teoscar Hernandez, Alex Bregman, and Anthony Santander. And with Rafael Devers staying at third, would the Sox ever make a play for big names like Nolan Arenado? The bullpen could also use some work, and we look at internal options like Garrett Whitlock, Justin Slaten, and Michael Fulmer. We also discuss how veterans like Aroldis Chapman, Liam Hendriks, and Justin Wilson will affect the Sox bullpen.

    Will Nick Pivetta Stay With The Red Sox?

    Will Nick Pivetta accept the qualifying offer from Boston, and what led the Red Sox to extend the offer to him? Given that only 13 out of 131 players who’ve received a qualifying offer have accepted it, how likely is it that he will choose to stay in Boston? The conversation also turns to Garrett Crochet and whether the Red Sox will complete a trade for the left-handed pitcher. What would the team need to give up to make it happen, and how would such a deal affect the roster moving forward? Then, the hosts discuss the growing trend of international NFL games and whether MLB should look into playing more games outside their usual 30 stadiums. What unique destinations could help grow the game, and why should baseball look to visit more places like the Field of Dreams or Seoul, Korea? To wrap things up, Julian and Jahmai share their top 3 fictional baseball players they’d love to see join the Red Sox this offseason. From Benny ‘The Jet’ Rodriguez to Mr. 3000, they pick their favorites from classic films and debate which movie characters would make an impact at Fenway Park.
