Baseball Isn’t Boring

The biggest news of the young baseball season unfolded Saturday night, with the Red Sox firing Alex Cora and five of his coaches. Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow joined team president Sam Kennedy in meeting with the media in Baltimore to discuss the thought process behind the sudden move, and where they see the team going from here.

There was big news coming out of the Red Sox Saturday night, and Bradfo was all over it. Our guy joined Christian Arcand on WEEI to react to the Red Sox firing Alex Cora and a good chunk of his coaching staff, explaining what happened, what it means, and why it is so bizarre.

After finally ending a record-setting losing streak, the Mets are trying to find their way back into the National League East race while fending off injuries and uncertainty. Team president David Stearns met with the media to discuss all the organization's goings-on.

One of the smoothest players in Major League Baseball, Cody Bellinger, joins Bradfo to talk about when he realized big league baseball was going to be the thing for him, while also offering some excellent comparisons to this year's Yankees team and his former club in Los Angeles.

In order to survive in the big leagues, there has to be some sort of evolution. James McCann is a perfect example of that. Courtney Finnicum caught up with the Arizona backup catcher, who is now in his 13th major league season with his fifth team, to talk about how he has adjusted, what he thinks is important in a clubhouse and how 2026 is different.

Cam Schlittler tried to keep things going regarding the rivalry between the Red Sox and Yankees, but it didn't take. Thanks largely to the Red Sox's current woes, the Fenway Park atmosphere for the New York vs. Boston showdown was a dud, despite Schlittler's best efforts. Bradfo joined the Jones and Keefe Show on WEEI to dissect that reality, along with the sorry state the Sox find themselves in.

Sure, there is Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton. And, maybe, the Yankees' hot start is built on some really, really good pitching. But two players you should absolutely know a little better are Ben Rice and Cody Bellinger. So, that's exactly what Bradfo helps you do thanks to conversations with both. And, not stopping there, our host then catches up with three pitchers - Paul Blackburn, Garrett W...

The much-anticipated start by Cam Schlittler in the Yankees visit to Fenway Park went pretty well for the Massachusetts native. The New York starter answered all the social media noise by giving up just two runs over eight innings in the final leg of the Yanks' sweep of the Red Sox. Bradfo is there for the postgame press conference for both Schlittler and the player whose home run helped secure th...

The Red Sox's bats have been silent for most of the season's first month, leading to plenty of questions and few answers. Bradfo caught up with the club's hitting coach Pete Fatse to both draw on a very similar past April experience and offer his perspective on what is going on with this current group.

Bradfo is back with the guys on WEEI's Jones and Keefe Show, once again doing his best to offer answers to the somewhat confusing world of the Red Sox. What do we make of the Anthony injury? Should Alex Cora take less blame for the roster? All that and more in another entertaining and insightful appearance.

The Play Tessie (Gordo, Sammy and Pat) are back with another edition of BIB Notes, this time to identify which fan bases of struggling teams deserve to actually panic as April turns into May. It's early for some, but not for others. The guys also have another round of Studs and Duds. Spoiler: Jose Soriano should be celebrated. Juan Soto? Not so much.

What do the real contenders really have? A star slugger that a lineup is built around. Aaron Judge. Vlad Guerrero Jr. Shohei Ohtani. Juan Soto. You get the idea. Julian McWilliams of CBS Sports joins Bradfo to pound home this reality. It's something every front office should prioritize and understand is essential. As always, it's a spirited, educational and entertaining conversation with the guys.

Yankees Pitcher Cam Schlittler meets with the Boston & New York media to discuss his Fenway Park debut, social media threats ahead of his debut, and more

So, how has life changed since Connolly Early faced off with the Yankees last postseason? A lot. The Red Sox rookie starting pitcher joins Bradfo to reflect on how he has evolved since last October, what it's like to face Aaron Judge, and the evolution of his autograpgh.

Adam Ottavino is back for another insightful, educational, and entertaining conversation with Bradfo, this time taking a good look at the good and bad of baseball in New York. The good is the Yankees. The bad? The team with the 11-game losing streak, the Mets. There is some great Cam Schlittler talk, along with the reminder that Juan Soto's absence should not only give the Mets, but all of basebal...

Bradfo also reunites with a couple of pitchers who have been on the program before, Tigers reliever Kyle Finnegan and Red...

Red Sox farm director/dream maker Brian Abraham is back for his weekly appearance on the Baseball Isn't Boring Radio Show. This time Brian is talking about the impact his son's BIB hat has made, while also offering next-level insight into prospects Anthony Eyanson, Juan Valera, Franklin Arias and Devin Futrell.

Bradfo sits down with Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet after the worst start of his career to discuss his perspective on living this life as the main man on his team's pitching staff.

The sit-down brings us behind the curtain when it comes Garrett's current mindset.

Kenley Jansen is back, this time sitting down with Bradfo in the visitors' dugout at Fenway Park. Since we last caught up with the Tigers closer, he has found himself as the third all-time saves leader in MLB history. The guys talk about that accomplishment, but, more importantly, discuss the impact Kenley's late mother had on the pitcher, helping him reach such heights. There is also talk of hats...
