FANBASE: A Deep Dive Into the Greatest Rivalry in Sports

We recap the weekend where New York took 3 of 4 from Boston. John almost gets in a fight, Brian fumes over Sox roster moves and they both agree that Will Fleming's got some issues.

Brian dropped off another one at college, and this one hurt. Plus, need a book? Got one for ya. And of course! Red Sox-Yankees 4-game set this weekend. We break it all down and why Roman Anthony may not come back until next week.

The Red Sox getting players back may actually be a problem. What is up with stadium fights, and the LL World Series has a female pitcher who, as John says, can “shove”!

Both the Sox and Yanks need injured guys to come back. Otherwise, making the playoffs won't matter. Plus, some great factoids about Tommy John and Josh Baez.

A cultural interpretation of what happened in Toronto Monday night — worth it. Red Sox get a jolt at the right time, and New York may want to protect pitching because it's all they have.

We break down the trade deadline, focusing on the Sox and Yanks. Boston front office showing some moxie while Brian Cashman must know SOMETHING we don't.

Trade deadline is Monday. We know the Yankees are buying, and the Sox HAVE TO BE buyers now. The question buying what with what. And it seems both teams might fight over some of the same guys.

Sox fans suffering whiplash while Yankee fans just suffer. John actually thinks New York could miss the playoffs. Plus, World Cup takeaways and John actually makes a TV production mistake. Unheard of!

The first day back could determine whether Sox buy or sell! And SOME news on Aaron Judge. Also, did the All Star Game suck? Duh!

Big changes are coming for the All Star Home Run Derby format. Can the hometown favorite win it? Plus, the Ghost of Angel Hernandez is back! Who is MLB's new "Worst Umpire"?

Probably not, but MATHEMATICALLY, they do! Plus, team updates, All Stars and World Cup.

Don't get TOO excited Sox fans! But should Yankee fans get THAT nervous? Maybe. Plus, John sings the praises of AUBURN UNIVERSITY.

The Sox are the worst home team in baseball, but Fenway has been rocking! It hasn't been the pink hats or the Iowa tourists. It's been the Scotsmen! John has seen it firsthand. Also, the Yankees have been ridiculous without judge, and the Sox may be sellers, but might have nothing to sell. Great episode!

We discuss this weekend's Yankees and Red Sox series at Yankee Stadium, Brayan Bello getting sent down after another miserable start, and with Aaron Judge going down for who knows how long, how can the Yankees win without their Captain?!

Tatis Jr and his lost millions, and will Wander get back to MLB? Abner Uribe's embarrassment. Did Taylor loan Kelce millions? Oh, and we check in on our teams.

The Sox seem so lifeless. The Yanks embarrassed by Subway. But make sure to stay to the end for the Vargas talk and an insider's view of the ABS system.

Two lifelong Yankee fans reflect on the legendary Yankee announcer — from steak dinners with him, to piping his voice into the living room. And the Red Sox guy chimes in, too.

FINALLY a chance to break down the mess that is the Red Sox. Conclusions may surprise you. AND John has a meltdown (epic!) over Fenway Park.

Yup, it's Yankees-Red Sox. Predictions and the ONE thing Brian is worried about. Oh, and Mike Trout to New York.

The Yankees aren't as good as we thought, and maybe, the Sox aren't as bad? And has parity become a part of baseball (outside of the Dodgers of course)?

The Yankees are at the top. The Sox at the bottom. And John is STILL grumpy. We talk Opening Day, ABS, big contracts for minor leaguers and more.

Division. Wild Card. World Series. MVP. We have it all, including (surprise) Brian ACTUALLY excited about the Sox!

Team USA fails to bring home the gold and should get used to second place. What needs to change and who can do it?!

The WBC has been better than expected – – competitiveness, fun, TV ratings. And how about the Italians?! Certainly not because of the Americans. We'll talk about how it may end up.

We set up for the WBC a talk about complicated pitching dynamics, and yes, somehow, John Means enters the conversation.

A wide range of issues, from our feelings on spring training and the WBC to multi-million dollar cards and the dangers of working in the media.

Pitchers/Catchers soon! We check in and chime in on WBC, Super Bowl and Olympics!!!

The legendary UConn coach gives the inside scoop on a bunch, from paying players to his favorite one, not named George Springer. And of course, we ask him: Yanks or Sox?!?!

We update our teams, put Dodgers spending in perspective, and, of course, we share some classic holiday traditions.

We talk turkey on some player moves (Tatis to NY?) and talk turkey about our best Thanksgiving memories as well.

We are witnessing some of the best talent EVER... but is the gambling sullying everything? And where might you see Jackie Bradley Jr next year? Surprise surprise.

We root around the World Series for the nuggets others aren't talking about. The magic of Japanese pitchers and the irony of the low-salary guys being money for the Dodgers.

We give our World Series Predictions! Will Don Mattingly finally get a ring? We will also discuss Ring Stupidity and Gambling Stupidity!

In David vs Goliath, we are picking David! Plus, a little teaser into offseason plans and a tribute to The Gator.

Yankees Rookie Cam Schlittler with a performance for the ages. Breaking down the exciting 3 game series over Boston and the impending ALDS against Toronto.

We go through every series and pick who makes the ALCS and NLCS. Great/short listen!!

And heading for home. Can the Yanks win the AL East? Can the Sox MISS the postseason. We predict what will happen in the best last week of the season in years.

Might the Yankees catch the Jays? Might the Sox miss the playoffs? Plus, we pay tribute to Clayton Kershaw and ask why must we always shame adults who want to keep the HR ball!

Yanks-Sox in September and it actually matters! Plus, John saw Paul Skenes live in person -- his take on the best pitcher in the game. PLUS, Brian's Cannonball Run and Camden Yards in 1994.

The Yankees have big decisions to make. Will Roman Anthony return in time? Plus, how technology can save bad baseball.

Could Sox or Yanks catch Toronto? We split on that and also split on whether Aroldis Chapman would choke in the playoffs. You're welcome.

Sox take 3 of 4 which no one had on their bingo card. What does it all mean? Listen and find out.

Huge Yanks-Sox series this weekend in New York! We break it down and talk Brian winning a bucket 'o wings!!

Yanks-Sox late this week. Plus, Little League World Series, MLB realignment and vacation scams!!

What's it like to feel connected to the Little League World Series. That, Roman Anthony's deal and a big weekend for the contenders.

Sox can't lose. Yanks can't win. Some inside scoop on what might be wrong in NY, and all of a sudden, you can't get a ticket for a Royals-Red Sox game in August. Buckle up.

Yanks added #s and 'pen depth. Sox? Two pitchers that, if healthy, could help. IF and COULD.

Aaron Judge is hurt. How much does it hurt the Yanks? (Duh -- it's terrible!) And what does it do to the trade deadline. Sox BETTER make some deals.

Is it time? Yankees swooning and Sox act like a mid-market team. John's yelling ... but not panicked. Plus, HOF chatter and we talk gambling and whether Dee Gordon was actually told not to win a batting title.

Finally, we get the second half. Both the Sox and Yanks have to run a gauntlet to finish July. Hopefully, it doesn't mean playoff death. Also, a Cy Young winner with a losing record? It could happen.

The Yankees are showing signs of life as they say goodbye to DJ. JRod is an all-star thanks to MLB. Plus, an epic beatdown on the golf course?
