00:00Describe the Red Sox deadline day in a word, or their deadline in general, in a word.
00:08They're better.
00:09Better.
00:10Better.
00:10Okay, better is the word.
00:12I don't want to say contender yet.
00:13What's yours, McCone?
00:14Ballsy.
00:16Ballsy.
00:18That's Ballsy for Breslow.
00:19That's Ballsy.
00:21I can't hammer him today.
00:22Uh-uh.
00:23I'd rather have a player that you actually heard about that's a former All-Star
00:28that can hit home runs, that can catch.
00:31It's after you've voted a catcher for how long?
00:34Did you want a new catcher?
00:35Yeah, I wanted a new catcher.
00:36They got a new catcher.
00:37Okay, so you got it.
00:38He's not available to play yet, but he will be at some point, hopefully.
00:41Take your prospects and shove it.
00:44They'd do nothing for you.
00:45I would tell you.
00:46Maybe you hit on one.
00:47I would describe it in a number of ways, but the number one thing was unexpected.
00:51I did not expect this.
00:53I did not expect them to part with their precious prospects.
00:57And I don't care that they obviously overpaid for Adley Rutschman, right?
01:02Pretty obvious.
01:03I don't think there's much of a debate there.
01:05Even if, you know, as I like the deal, I like that they acquired Adley Rutschman.
01:09Oh, they overpaid.
01:10Holy crap, do they overpay.
01:12And I would much prefer them, and this is the only thing I can get mad about,
01:15is I would have much preferred them to be using those prospects in bigger deals for better players.
01:20That's my only second guess here.
01:22But I told you yesterday if Hunter Goodman moved, I'd be pissed.
01:26Well, Hunter Goodman didn't move.
01:27Nope.
01:27So they went for another option.
01:31And I am pleased.
01:34I am happy that they did this at the end of the day, despite the overpays.
