Tonight we all hopped into the meeting and just started laughing. Another brutal series for the Red Sox. There's basically nothing to be excited about for the rest of the season so that's cool. We tried to spin things in a positive direction after about 20 minutes of negativity but it was pretty much impossible. The Red Sox can't get the ball in play when they need to, they're trotting out older guys in the lineup and on the mound that have no future with the team, the chase rate as Tyler points out is astronomical, and we're wondering why we haven't seen younger guys like Triston Casas make appearances yet. The Red Sox need a plan. They need to figure out a Devers extension, they need to decide who they're extending qualifying offers to, and they need to make a splash in free agency. We talk about being hopeful that there's a plan behind the scenes because to the average Red Sox fan, it looks like they're just winging it. Jared talks about getting in touch with Chaim to figure out when he's going to make a podcast appearance because the Tyler/Chaim content is going to be top-tier. Xander sounded like all of us in his press conference after the game tonight. We play that audio as well as Cora saying for the 100th time this year, "We gotta be better." See you Monday.
