BRING OUT THE BROOMS! Wait... Does Greg need to go on a run now? What exactly is considered a 'run' for the Red Sox?? Did the Red Sox 4-game SWEEP 'pull you back in'? Can the Sox keep the momentum? Are you 'pulled back in' yet?
Transcript
00:00you're gonna have to go on a run now like we have to like settle this score because the red
00:04sox went
00:05on a run oh yeah we have to do like a radio johnny bit where you go for a run
00:10okay wait
00:11wait but what is actually i don't want to get into all the logistics or whatever from the very jump
00:19but what is a run yeah is a run a sweep because i know it's a four game sweep and
00:24it's the biggest
00:24they've had this season but shouldn't a run include more than one series i agree we have to
00:29find a number of games they have to win for greg to actually commence a run a run an actual
00:33run
00:34there is a teeny tiny little bit of joy in mudville this morning curtis that was a great weekend oh
00:43i mean that was don't be a sucker greg don't be a sucker what do you mean don't let them
00:49suck
00:49you're back in brother you can't be negative about a four game sweep of the you can't be you can't
00:54be
00:54celebrating a four game sweep of the it was nice sunny gray with a no no into the eighth right
01:01that game the way they won that game last night i mean they tried to blow it yeah to be
01:07fair that's
01:08their dna they could be happy with the series win but you're still in order to get back in on
01:15this team
01:15you need to go eight in a row okay if you don't go eight if you go four in a
01:21row it's great you're
01:22still four and a half out of eight is crazy they just they just swept the yankees i know they
01:27did so
01:28so so they got to peel off another four in a row yep and then you may be back in
01:33yeah because now you're
01:35in a legitimate position to be like oh we could we could potentially went get that third wildcard spot
01:43because that's the only spot that you probably have a realistic chance of getting and and in order
01:49to do that you're going to have to rip off another four in a row to put you within real
01:54striking
01:54imagine if this team had just been as focused on throwing guys out on the field as they were
02:03on throwing fans out of Fenway Park whenever whenever anybody says anything bad about them
02:08what could be mount rushmore of douches to play in boston well listen it happened again last night
02:16by the way he is so rafaela oh had had somebody thrown out last night and of course jaron duran
02:23had somebody thrown out on saturday so i had a uh a eyewitness send me a dm and he said
02:30he literally
02:31yelled 180 that's what he yelled 180 the guy that reached out to me the person said that they heard
02:38the heckler yell out 180 his batting average or whatever yeah and he literally had to be held back
02:45by wilson contreras from going into this he might be on our side then because he's like stop with the
02:49analytics guys he could have been like 180 like hey you're finally you know turning things around
02:57did he mean 180 in a negative way i wish the player would just like when they have somebody thrown
03:04out
03:04just let us know what that person said so we can at least be like all right do we do
03:08do do we defend
03:10you or do we say i might be a little too sensitive so you need to know exactly what was
03:14said in order
03:15to defend somebody for having a fan thrown out of a baseball park well no no i'm talking about the
03:21where people are you know where people are chirping uh every game so i mean well you can't cross i'm
03:30saying if the athlete said he crossed the line you can't claim every time that you get pissed and get
03:35somebody thrown out you can't claim that they cross especially when you're using slurs at fans that's
03:40what that's why that's why i'm saying i wish the athlete would say oh this is what the person said
03:45to me then you could go all right but if you don't know what the person said to to the
03:50athlete now it's
03:51now we're basically playing the game of trying to figure out did he did he cross the line did he
03:55not
03:56cross the line because if you say something racist or homophobic or or something about you know
04:01somebody's dead parents or dead sister then that's crossing the line but we don't know that because the
04:06athletes don't say it yeah no just i wish they would just say isn't it crazy that this happened
04:10so the with rafael i saw zach cox from the boston herald tweeted it out said that rafael got into
04:18it
04:18with the yankees fan in the before right before the start of the 10th inning centerfield had that
04:23guy or girl whatever thrown out right isn't it crazy that it's happening at fenway like with your
04:30like that's your home field it's not like you're going out on the road in hostile territory
04:35yeah but you say it was a yankees fan yeah but still it's like okay so like screw you're about
04:41to sweep them oh that reminds me i don't know how i should have reacted this morning to something that
04:48occurred to me on my old man walk so i was down the end of the pier you know where
04:53nautilus is uh
04:55making my turn around the pier and there was an older when i say older uh like a 33 year
05:05old gentleman
05:06in a yankees jersey who was passed out on the pier area so this is 4 30 a.m all
05:15right so i didn't know
05:17whether i didn't know whether to ask him if he was okay to try to to try to awaken him
05:23or whether i should
05:24let him sleep i mean this team had just been swept at at at fenway park curtis what what should
05:31i i just walked right by well did you notice if there was any heart rate or blood or any
05:36breathing
05:36going he seemed to be snoring okay is that okay is that an indication that maybe get lewis cpap
05:42okay yeah there you go keep it pushing my my highlight of the weekend greg was friday night
05:47james and i were at rosa lions and this guy walks in in a yankees jersey much bigger than me
05:53which is not
05:53saying much but stronger taller and james just yells out boo yankees boo well listen and i thought
06:02i was like oh it's okay he has Tourette's and then he walked away but it was a uh unbelievable
06:06week
06:07honestly i i don't know how you're negative about the red socks today that was awesome that was a
06:10great weekend it was great and the question i think becomes how does john henry because he's the
06:17one who who clearly is making all the decisions don't give me craig breslow has anything to say
06:24of any importance whatsoever how does john henry feel about the pivot and if the pivot was underway
06:30is this enough to pause the pivot no and no no there's not enough to pause the pivot are you
06:37sure
06:38about that because you still have a month before the trade deadline and so that's why i said are you
06:45going to be in a position where let's say you're a half game out of that third wildcard spot or
06:51in a
06:51month from now are you still four games out from that third wildcard spot and if so then the pivot
06:58won't change like you'll still be a team that'll be selling right that that's the thing you're not
07:04like you're you're fighting for one spot and like you said mego against a bunch of teams and right now
07:11you are a there's a a far distance between you and that one spot they have the fourth best run
07:18differential in the american league yeah but that means nothing that is everything they use yeah but
07:22i mean it means nothing in the sense if you're not making any headway but every single model that
07:27every baseball team uses not like the most diverse analytical driveline is predicated upon a
07:34understanding of where you are vis-a-vis your opponents over the course of the season
07:38and that's how they use it so let me ask everyone a simple question is if the trade deadline was
07:43tomorrow would they be buyers and sellers based on where they would do nothing and i would recommend
07:47they would sit on the fence yeah and i would recommend the yankees i would say because more so
07:52that last week there was this info about the cbt and how the sunny grays of the world are not
07:59going
07:59to be as high in demand because of the amount of money other teams have to take on with the
08:03it was
08:03really in the weeds but i would say just sit where you are so just really quick curtis because i
08:09didn't see that is some of that pitching versus offense because i feel like one of the insiders
08:14had that a couple weeks ago like hey if if you think a team like the red sox are going
08:18to acquire
08:19offensive talent at the trade deadline like keep dreaming because there's a lot of pitchers to be
08:24dealt around but offense basically you got to get an off season which they showed last year they
08:29couldn't do i remember hearing that so you think if the trade deadline was to to start tomorrow you
08:35think that the red sox are not doing anything yeah i don't i just don't think they're gonna get
08:39a market value deal of any kind for sunny gray and he's been really good what about chapman i don't
08:46know what you're gonna get i mean chapman's the one guy sure trade him i mean i'm not i'm fine
08:49with
08:49that would you i i don't think i'd trade sunny gray at this point i mean i i i if
08:55they could get a
08:55ken's word of the day on saturday was a haul if they could get a haul sure i guess but
09:01you really
09:01have to believe that you're completely done and finished and there's no chance whatsoever
09:05i i just i mean the pitching is pitching is awesome they had that's 10 quality starts in a
09:14row first time since 1988 for this baseball team yeah that's been even brezbach said it on when i asked
09:21him about the grade that he would give his team even he was like the pitching has been great for
09:25us
09:25it's just obviously our inability to score runs i just think that if you're in a position and we've
09:31talked to sam kennedy or if you're even brezbach and you have a couple guys that could potentially
09:38you know be assets and get you something value back why would you just stand pat and and just
09:44continue to grind it out for the second half of the season no i can't know that you might not
09:50even
09:50you know have a chance to make the postseason all right well a lot to talk about when it comes
09:53to
09:54red sox this morning and we will do that with you leads coming up they set it at 7 15
10:00that will
10:01include what sonny gray said about the diehards getting this team back into it
