From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): The full crew is back as Gordo, Sammy, and Pat react to a great 4th of July weekend for the Red Sox as they swept the Nationals on the road. 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.
Jordan, Jack and Brian recap a fun series in our nation's capital, as the Boston Red Sox delivered belt to ass against the Washington Nationals over the weekend. In the series sweep, the Red Sox won, on aggregate, 27-9.Trevor Story and Ceddanne Rafaela continue to carry the offensive load for the Red Sox since the Rafael Devers trade, Lucas Giolito is *that* dude again and Walker Buehler took a massive step in the right direction.Congrats on the All-Star selections, as well, to Garrett Crochet, Aroldis Chapman and Alex Bregman, even though Carlos Narvaez and Rafaela were obvious snubs.Make sure to follow us on Twitter, @ThePeskyReport.

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. How much did the loss in the series finale filled with self-inflicted wounds damper the mood surrounding the team? Then, reports say Aroldis Chapman and Alex Bregman are the most-likely trade deadline candidates, but it still doesn't feel like the time to have those conversations. And, Trevor Story is back on a hot streak while Masataka Yoshida is apparently adding first base to his rehab assignment.

Jordan, Doink and Bayleigh recap the Boston Red Sox series win over the Cincinnati Reds that didn't really feel the part.Wilyer Abreu was an animal, Trevor Story continues to show life, Garrett Crochet struggles but dominates at the same time, and the Red Sox bullpen and defense are a mess despite staring down the barrel of a sweep.The trio also reopens Jarren Duran trade dialogue, as well as Aroldis Chapman, and how trading one or both of them hardly spells the end of the line for the 2025 team.Make sure to follow us on Twitter, @ThePeskyReport.

The Mets should not be looking to add Chapman to their bullpen
(0:00) Matt McCarthy begins the show with instant reaction to the Red Sox (7-5) win over the Giants Friday night. Former Red Sox 3B/DH Rafael Devers went (0-5) including a 9th Inning strike out to Sox Closer, Aroldis Chapman. McCarthy highlights the positive momentum the Red Sox have built post-Devers trade, attributing the Sox' recent successes to quality starting pitching and ridding Devers from the ballclub. (14:46) McCarthy analyzes comments made by Raffy Devers pregame yesterday regarding his willingness to play 1B for the Boston Red Sox. McTakey believes Devers is disingenuous when he states he would've been open to playing 1B, if the team would've approached him in Spring Training, highlighting his slow start was because of his lack of presence at Spring Training. Would Devers still be in Boston if he would've transitioned to 1B when the team asked him to? Jeff Passan reports on the Devers saga. (26:40) McCarthy re-hashes the "alignment" moniker made by Sam Kennedy & Craig Breslow during the media call last week following the trade of Devers to SF. Matt references "defensive alignment" and interprets those remarks as tacit shots at Devers' poor defensive reputation. McCarthy continues with the Devers trade fallout by describing how Devers was notified on the team's plane to the smear campaign levied against him. (39:02) McCarthy continues to break down the Rafael Devers trade to SF. He proclaims the situation became personal between Devers and management. More testimonial from the latest Jeff Passan reporting. Callers weigh in on the Devers trade. ------------------------------------------- FOLLOW ON TWITTER/X: @MattMcCarthy985 | @jorgiesepulveda
The Philadelphia Phillies will, no doubt, be looking at bullpen help come Trade Deadline time. And one name that many Phillies fans want Dave Dombrowski to pursue is Boston Red Sox closer, Aroldis Chapman. And while Chapman is having an excellent season, here's why a different Red Sox reliever could make sense for the Phillies.
On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo recap a good sweep and a bad sweep, plus preview some NL East showdowns for the Mets. Connor and Joe recap the week that was, including a fun time against the Nationals, tough struggles against the Rays, and some marks against the starting pitching staff. The guys also cover the injury to Kodai Senga, the stepping up of David Peterson, the wait for several young players to make a case to stay, and the upcoming matchups with the Braves and Phillies. Later, the show goes Down on the Farm for a status update on the red-hot Jett Williams, and takes on Mailbag questions about the long-term plan for center field, moving certain starters to the bullpen, the changes to the physical baseballs in 2025, and what it would cost to trade for Aroldis Chapman.

Starkey's mailbag. How much longer will Tommy Pham be here? The Pirates have signed guys to one-year deals that haven't worked out and can be combined to pay a big free agent. The Pirates did well with Aroldis Chapman when they paid him $10 million. They need to pay a bat.

Triston Casas is out for the season with a ruptured patellar tendon in his left knee, and the ripple effects could be massive. What does this mean for his future, and who steps in now? Lou suggests Rafael Devers as a potential replacement, but could he actually thrive there?
