Boo! Boo these men!!! As far as town meetings go, the Red Sox town hall was particularly rowdy.

Chaim says it's gonna be awesome

Chaim Bloom said at the Rafael Devers press conference where his new extension was announced, "It's going to be awesome". Most of us were left shaking our heads wondering what the "it" is that is going to be awesome and when does the awesomeness start. Steve Phillips on MLB Network doesn't think things are that awesome in Boston. I also discuss the impending signing of Adam Duvall, and signing of Jorge Alfaro.

Hope is springing for some people

Maybe hope springing eternal isn't a cliche. I'm sensing some members of the nation are starting to talk themselves into this team. This is mostly normal as opposed to toxic positivity. I share some social media banter from both sides, and some national voices who are far from bullish on this team. I also discuss the Matt Barnes DFA/trade for Richard Bleier, the Aldaberto Mondesi trade, and more insight on Jorge Alfaro...Way-too-early 2023 MLB lineup rankings by Bradford Doolitle ($) https://es.pn/3HcrZHs ...
