00:00I don't know if the organization's really in a better place than they were a year ago.
00:04And I don't know if you agree with me or not, but this leads to my very crafty question.
00:09Very clever.
00:10It was clever.
00:11You know, I saw your tweet and I said, you know, I'm telling you, the first thought I had was,
00:17well, Tony Maz is really good at what he does.
00:20Oh, thank you.
00:21I appreciate that.
00:21He's really good at what he does because he says serious question.
00:24I'm like, it's not really a serious question.
00:26It's a good talk radio discussion question, which is your job.
00:32That's why you're good at it.
00:33But the serious question, you don't believe, I do not believe that you believe that the 2025 Red Sox, I'm
00:42talking about on the field.
00:42Now, organizationally, we can have a different conversation, but you don't believe that the 2025 Red Sox are better than
00:49the 2026 Red Sox.
00:51You mean the other way around, that 26 is better than 25.
00:54But no, you think, no, you think 25 is better than 26.
00:58I said, you don't believe that, do you?
00:59No, I think they're about the same.
01:02I think 26 is better in so many ways.
01:05First of all, Karabas would agree with you, but go ahead.
01:08Yeah, but I don't think, when you looked at the 2025 team, despite what the numbers say, and then I
01:13was shocked to see that you pointed out that their offense was in the top 10.
01:18And I don't remember that.
01:20I didn't feel that from the 2025 Red Sox.
01:24When they trailed in games, I felt like it was done.
01:27When they fell behind, I didn't think they could come back.
01:30I didn't think they were capable of long winning streaks because they weren't.
01:35This team has an identity.
01:38The 2016 has an identity.
01:39Beyond the 15-game win streak, the 9-game win streak, the 32-5 run, beyond that, when they get
01:46down in games, it's not over.
01:47The 2016 has an identity.
