In The Dugout Podcast

The Red Sox are headed to the ALCS!! And we are finally back with a new episode! We breakdown the series against the Rays and preview the upcoming series against the Astros, discuss what's gotten the Sox to this point, talk about how bad the playoff broadcasters have been, and a lot more! Enjoy!

Chris Sale is back and the energy is back too as the Sox completed the sweep!! We talk about how great it is having Sale back, how red-hot Bobby D is, answer a bunch of questions, and a lot more. We also sing Sweet Caroline which you won't want to miss. Straight up, this is one of our best episodes all time so enjoy!!

Put on your sad hoodie folks, the Red Sox are depressing right now. They are really bad and we get all our sadness and anger out in this episode. Agggggrrrhhhhhhh

We're not mad, we're just disappointed. The MLB trade deadline has passed and the moves the Red Sox made (or didn't make) left us wanting more. We break down how Chaim Bloom handled this trade deadline and react to everything that did and didn't happen. Ugh. 

Baseball is wild. Red Sox got no hit for 7 innings (and we recorded during most of the game) and then score 5 runs to come back to beat the Yankees and win the series! Also this was our first episode in a month (whoops sorry) so we had plenty to talk about from Duran, Houck, Sale, Mayer, and more, and then of course we talk in depth about our trade deadline targets. Great episode, enjoy!

Red Sox sweep the Yankees again hahaha. We talk about how embarrassingly bad the Yankees and Gerrit Cole are, what we missed in between episodes, and other stuff as we celebrate the sweep. Weak description but better episode. Enjoy! 

The Red Sox pitching staff had a rough week and gave up 18 runs in one game... It happens! We talk a lot about Ryan Weber, explain what we think is wrong with the rotation, recap our trip to Fenway, answer questions, and a lot more! Great episode, much better than Ryan Weber's baseball skills. 

Get the brooms out folks, Red Sox sweep the Yankees and Marlins! We talk about that, how horrible and biased the ESPN broadcast is, question whether JD Martinez is on the team, answer a ton of questions, talk about going to Fenway this week, and then have a long discussion about illegal substances. Great episode, enjoy!

The weather deserves to get DFA'd after this week's performance. We rant about the bad weather, recap the past series and talk about the crowd back at Fenway, check in on Rusney Castillo and compare Franchy to him, figure out who plays for the Astros, come up with a Rays conspiracy theory, answer your questions, and more! Enjoy!

The season's a marathon not a sprint. Sox took 2/3 from the Blue Jays and then 2/3 from the Phillies and we are happy about that. We discuss those series, E-Rod's struggles, the pitching staff in general, Hunter Renfroe's wideness vs Mike Trout's wideness, the Fenway Park experience, get lost in some stats, answer some questions, and more! Enjoy! 

We’re back recording in person so this episode was electric. The Red Sox are good and we love it. We talk how insane Ohtani is, the State of the Sox, who's hot who's not, what moves we should make, what the correct shampoo process is, answer a bunch of great questions, talk some Bruins, and Xander Bogaerts makes an appearance (kinda). Absolute gem of an episode, enjoy! 

Lose 3, win 9, get 17-10, rinse and repeat. That's the plan and the Red Sox are right on track. We discuss this plan and the state of the team, the icky series in Texas, what to do about the bottom of the order, and we come up with a brilliant idea involving Ron Roenicke that you won’t want to miss. And there’s a lot more too. Enjoy this great episode! 

Garrett Richards is incredibly bad at pitching and we want to toss him in the trash compactor from Star Wars like we wanted to do to Tyler Thornburg. Oh and Josh Taylor can go with him. Obviously we discuss how bad they are, then we recap the recent games, talk about when we'll see Jarren Duran, answer a bunch of questions, and a lot more. Enjoy! 

Sox played beat some tough teams and are still the best team in the AL! We recap the end of the Twins series, the White Sox series, and then answer a lotttt of questions. We also debate whether we’d get hit by a Randy Johnson fastball every year for $10M. Oh and of course we address the iconic 'Verdu-Go Red Sox' guy. Legend. Enjoy! 

We are having a great time right now... The Red Sox are good and very fun to watch. We breakdown the series with the Orioles, highlight some players crushing it right now like JD and Devers, discuss the postponement of the first game against the Twins, rant about how broken the replay system is and how we hate umpires, answer a bunch of questions, then close it out with a rant about the MLB's powe...

The Sox are back and we are excited so we overact to everything that's happened so far. We recap the Rays series, ignore the Orioles series, share our thoughts on the new extra innings rule where a runner starts on 2B, discuss the Tanner Houck situation, and talk about a bunch of other random stuff. 

The 2021 Red Sox season is just days away, so this is our season predictions episode! We drop some can't-miss predictions and hot takes, then go through some listener hot takes, hype up Franchy Cordero a bunch, and just get excited for the season! Let's go!!

Spring Training is finally here!! So we're talking all about spring camp: who to watch, storylines to follow, what we expect from this team coming into a new season, and overreact to meaningless games as usual. Also, we bring on Red Sox legend David Ortiz to share his perspective on spring training. You don't want to miss that interview with *definitely* the real Big Papi.... We also answer some q...

HUGE episode this week, we've got NESN sideline reporter Jahmai Webster back on the podcast! (24:52) We talk to him about getting the full time gig, what advice he has for young people wanting to do what he does, the behind the scenes of his job and what it's like to be live on air, and a lot more. But before all that, we talk for awhile about the Andrew Benintendi trade and (spoiler) we're not to...

Chaim Bloom listened to us and went out and made some great moves, so we break down the Enrique Hernandez & Garrett Richards signings, as well as the Adam Ottavino trade. We also advocate for a reunion with Mitch Moreland. Then of course, we spend some time reflecting on the outstanding career of Dustin Pedroia and what he meant to our generation. And we wrap it up with listener questions as alway...

The MLB offseason is finally heating up and big name free agents are being signed... but not by the Red Sox. We struggle to understand what the Red Sox are doing and what their vision is, live react to Sam Kennedy's latest quote about their plan, answer a bunch of questions, and overall just express the frustration and urgency that all of Red Sox Nation is feeling. Time is running out, let's make...

It’s our last episode of 2020-  the Holiday Special!! So we bring back a favorite segment from last year: Professional Baseball Player or Holiday Food? But before that, we run though all the news we missed in the month between episodes, talk about what players we want for Christmas, answer a bunch of questions, and then briefly reflect on 2020 at the end. Enjoy, happy holidays!! 

ALEX CORA IS BACK. AND WE ARE BACK. We recorded this one in person for the first time in 264 days! So obviously it was incredible and you should listen. We talk about Alex Cora returning as manager, go off on nerds and analytics in baseball, hate on Dodgers fans, roast Rob Manfred a little, and do two fun rapid-fire segments at the end. Then Joey also does his Borat voice so you won’t want to miss...

Well that nightmare of a season is finally over. The Red Sox were an absolute disaster in every way, they were bad at being good and bad at being bad. Couldn't even get the #1 pick. That's the worst kind of bad. We revisit our horrible preseason predictions, then answer a bunch of your questions read to you by GJ Questions himself. At least that season is over now, enjoy this episode!

The Red Sox season has basically been over for awhile, but now it's really almost over. We discuss everything we missed since our last episode which was ages ago, including the deadline trades, how no one wants to watch the Red Sox, Bobby Dalbec and Tanner Houck, what the future looks like, and more. We also touch on the debate over Alex Cora coming back as manager in 2021. This miserable throw-aw...
