From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Even though there was only one game between episodes, Gordo and Sammy got to recount to biggest headline of them all with Roman Anthony signing an extension. How happy should Red Sox fans be with the supposed future of the ballclub signing for an additional eight years of service? Also, this deal was signed well before Anthony hits the prime of his career which is something clearly John Henry and the front office learned. And, fans can stomach a loss after seven straight wins, but Dustin May didn't make the difference everyone was hoping in his Red Sox debut.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): It seems like a perfect time to sit down with Red Sox manager Alex Cora and reflect on what has been a wild 2025 season.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): No crash landings expected for the Red Sox as they ride a seven-game winning streak that Gordo and Sammy are all excited about.

And, its clear to see how much Brayan Bello has changed with his continued success.

The Red Sox keep on rolling as Jarren Duran joins Will Flemming and Will Middlebrooks on the heels of their seventh straight win to talk about the sky-high vibes, how Trevor Story has exhibited himself as the team's leader, and being angry at Wilyer Abreu's stellar right field defense.

Wilyer Abreu spoke to Will Flemming after the Red Sox 6th straight win over the Royals to discuss how late he knew he'd replace Roman Anthony in the lineup, the impact Alex Bregman has had on him, and his big throw in the 8th when things were getting hairy.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): In a stunning change after a subpar trade deadline, the Red Sox came home swept the Houston Astros in seemingly convincing fashion. With the Sox now in the top Wild Card spot, should fans be expecting them to make the playoffs and even win the division? Also, reports of the price the Twins were asking for Joe Ryan should give some confidence that Garrett Crochet will have a reliable second starter behind him. And, Walker Buehler struggled once again and with the season winding down, time is ticking on his rotation spot if things don't turn around fast.

Lucas Giolito joins Will Flemming and Lenny Dinardo after pitching eight innings of one run ball to secure a series sweep for the Red Sox.

Another strong day for Trevor Story as he joined Will Flemming and Lenny DiNardo after the Red Sox 7-3 win over Houston to discuss the team's belief in themselves even without significant trade deadline adds, his different approach in his latest hot stretch, and hitting well against very strong pitching.

The kid has his first walk-off hit as a major leaguer and joined Will Flemming and Sean McDonough following the Red Sox 2-1 victory in 10 innings to discuss his big moment at Fenway Park and how he cancelled out all of the noise surrounding trade deadline reactions.

She talks about the journey to the inaugural AUSL Championship and when she finally plans on resting. Jordan then goes in depth into the social media side of Women's Sports and how that is helping to grow the game in her "Let's Get Down To Business" segment.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Safe to say Gordo, Sammy, and Pat aren't happy with the Red Sox action (or lack thereof) at the trade deadline. How frustrated are the guys with the Sox only grabbing a reliever in Steven Matz and a low-end starter in Dustin May? Also, even without big additions, the Sox are still a capable playoff team if the ball bounces the right way for them. And, Joe Ryan was the big fish the Sox couldn't get, but just like Garrett Crochet, the confidence in Ryan being traded to Boston might've actually increased.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): While we await all the big trade deadline moves, it is a good time to reflect on another example of how a major leaguer's journey is rarely a straight line. There are ups. There are downs. And, if you approach things the right way, there are ups again. This is the lesson top Red Sox prospect Kristian Campbell is currently experiencing, as he explains while sitting down with Bradfo. The success. The contract. The struggles. The new position. And how the resurgence. It's all been there for the rookie.

On the eve of the trade deadline, Trevor Story spoke with Will Flemming and Mike Monaco following a Red Sox series win over the Twins 13-1 about the team finding their groove at the right time, how he's broke out of his recent slump during this series, and finally having the good feeling of thinking they'll be getting some big new teammates by Friday.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Amidst a wild series in Minnesota so far, Gordo, Sammy, and Pat are all focused on the trade deadline which is now less than 48 hours away. Have the expectations changed because of the high price for controllable pieces? Also, rental starting pitchers seem to be the fad and a rumored name in Charlie Morton could be an option along with a Cleveland pitcher who's been in Sox rumors before. And, the bullpen name the guys would love to trade for and the likelihood the Rays decide to ship out Yandy Diaz.

Alex Bregman joins Will Flemming and Mike Monaco to discuss the Red Sox win in Minnesota.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): Certain players elicit certain emotions and memories. Shohei Ohtani is at the top of that list. Bradfo gets a chance to sit down with Red Sox reliever Chris Murphy less than 24 hours after he secured a tent-pole moment in his young career by striking out Ohtani in a key spot Friday night. Considering how far Murphy has come after undergoing Tommy John surgery, the significance of the at-bat wasn't lost on the lefty. He explains his thoughts, emotions, and execution in the showdown, while going on to talk about what striking out one of his heroes, Bryce Harper, also meant. There is also a lot of good inside baseball talk regarding what pitching measurements are actually important.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Gordo, Sammy, and Pat want to get into everything regarding this upcoming week's trade deadline, but an unexpected series win over the Dodgers shouldn't go unnoticed. How crucial was taking two out of three games from the defending champions when things looked bleak early Saturday? Then, lots of news came out about the Sox plans including the emergence of Yandy Diaz as a trade candidate which works for everybody...except one person. And, San Diego is going to have to work harder to get Jarren Duran and two Miami pitcher are on the Sox radar.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Gordo, Sammy, and Pat were going to get into some trade deadline talk, but a big domino fell in Josh Naylor heading to Seattle.

Also, reports about making a big splash make the chances slim, but the playoffs should still be the goal whether fans are satisfied or not.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Gordo, Sammy, and Pat react to the Red Sox losing two out of three games at Wrigley Field against the Cubs in their first series out of the All Star break. Did salvaging a win in the series finale help keep the vibes somewhat positive with another tough road series in Philadelphia up next? Also, the lineup was very quiet until the seventh inning in Game 3 which makes the need for another bat at the trade deadline more important than before. And, first base is the biggest offensive need and a debate between Ryan O'Hearn and Josh Naylor look like the obvious candidates.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): The Red Sox continue to win and win AND WIN which has Gordo, Sammy, and Pat debating if its time to embrace this team on the heels of seven straight victories. Are we ready call the Sox an elite team or is the relatively soft schedule clouding judgment? Also, the confidence in the roster is skyrocketing with Masataka Yoshida returning and Alex Bregman soon to follow, but a move for the crowded outfield still seems inevitable. And, Joe Ryan reportedly has interest from the Sox, but its going to take a big haul to poach him from Minnesota.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): There is probably no better example of Baseball Isn't Boring science impacting a player than Trevor Story. From the time he accepted his BIB sticker, the shortstop has been one of the best hitters in baseball, with his three-run homer moments after conducting this podcast offering the latest punctuation. Story sits down with Bradfo to talk about his turnaround, his current existence, and all things being Trevor Story these days. It's another fantastic look into a fascinating journey.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Its Pat's turn to propose a Who Says No to Gordo and Sammy which solves the Red Sox need for another arm in the starting rotation. Would the Sox and Kansas City Royals agree to send Seth Lugo to Boston for a few prospects? Also, Lugo could be seen as a poison pill kind of player on an expiring deal and climbing up in age. Then, Mikey Romero is viewed as the biggest prospect in this deal, but Jhostynxon Garcia might need to be added and Kansas City would have to fall out of the race a little more.

Following the first complete game of his career, Brayan Bello spoke with will Flemming (who was translating) about the work he put in leading into tonight's 10-2 Red Sox win over the Rockies and the vibe of the clubhouse amidst their now five-game winning streak.

What is the vibe surrounding the team on a relatively scotch-free series? Also, Walker Buehler may have saved himself at least one more start in the rotation, but the need for another arm is up there with a bat and a reliever. And, Garrett Crochet, Aroldis Chapman, and Alex Bregman will represent the Sox at the All Star Game, but there are definitely names that can be argued should have made the roster.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): It may not feel like, but the Red Sox did win their series at home against the Reds which Gordo and Sammy are trying to figure out.

And, Trevor Story is back on a hot streak while Masataka Yoshida is apparently adding first base to his rehab assignment.
