Not Another Sox Podcast

Welcome to Brockton part 2 - the heart of the order. This one has some interviews of the game go-ers at Campanelli Stadium, get to know the people! We do a little roster construction in this one. The rotation gets some eyes, the prospects get some eyes, and we're hopeful the Red Sox hire us as ongoing GM consultants. Keep up with our visit to Brockton!

They had us back in Brockton - on purpose! What a privilege to be both in-person at a baseball game while also watching our favorite team, the Boston Red Sox. So this is where the fun begins. This is part 1 of a three part mini-series. A fit check, a food check, a vibes check, a baseball check, and finally, a mic check. On the night of this episode, new city connects JUST. DROPPED. Linktree NASP I...

This week was all about drama. The Red Sox? More like the Red Soaps! (Like Soap Opera) We have a LOT of takes - it is truly an honor to be able to give our unbridled opinions. They tell us this is a good team. We tell you we've seen this team for 4 years now. Let me make out stances as of 5/11/25 perfectly clear: You gotta keep Devers. You gotta keep Cora. We'd love to see the prospects, but the p...

We learn a lot about the state of affairs from former colleague and friend of the pod, Jim Cain. What is it like to look at the Woo Sox right now - and how did Jim get to be an announcer? In non-baseball terms, it might be fair to say these last few years have felt like "it's always something" with the Red Sox. Based on the insight from Jim and in the words of Mrs. Doubtfire - "Help...

Triston Casas beat out the ball to 1B - but at what cost? The cost of a torn Patellar Tendon. The recovery time for that injury can be anywhere from 6-12 months. So, here are our options. Abraham Toro has been called up. You know what? Sure. In the interim, you've gotta give it to Romy and Toro. You could also consider Refsnyder and Wong, maybe even Grandal. Argue about Casas' current production a...

Nobody was hurt in the making of this episode. It was prior to this episode that some alleged perpetrator fractured Zach's hand with a 125mph exit velocity off the bat. During this episode we were watching a game against the Toronto Blue Jays that hopefully ended well (it did not end well). It was the first game Giolito was back on the mound for the Sox and, fortunately, happy surprise! Decent per...

If anyone happens to be in Cleveland, there's a guy who said ya mum's a ho. I'll point him out to you if you haven't already seen his picture circulating Twitter. Go get em. That is - if Jarren Duran doesn't get to him first. Anyway, back to baseball. We have a lot of eyes on pitching in this episode. You know what's interesting? The pitching has been consistent but the roles for the pitchers are...

What do you think is more embarrassing, losing to the White Sox or... No, wait, that's it. It's a pretty annoying time to be a fan of the Boston Red Sox. We are just asking them to play enough baseball to beat bad teams. Wins against losing teams still count as wins. We feel good about relying on our bullpen - at least most of the time. The jury, as of 4/20/25, is still out on Justin Wilson. The j...

Some people know ball, some people know the muffin man, but we know @dunkintern; the founder of the #gripcheck. (We also know ball.) Join us for the viral sensation that's sweeping the (Red Sox) nation, as well as an unfortunate recap of the White Sox series. Would you rather have an iced coffee or a big fat L from the Chicago White Sox? Correct, an iced coffee. Better hold on to it tight! Though...

So, the pitching is here. It's usually working, too. Still iffy on Justin Wilson. But the BATTING, bro? Peter Fatse, homie, brother, let's have a chat. Welcome back! Sorry for the pause, we were watching baseball and eating hot dogs. We join you fresh of a Cardinals sweep and a very disappointing Blue Jays not-sweep - but a walk-off dribbler from Trevor Story in game 4. Yeah, we're not jazzed abou...

IN BROAD DAYLIGHT, CRAIG BRESLOW SNUCK IN WITH THE GOODS. THE EXTENSION GOODS. Kristian Campbell, in a gosh darn no brainer, has been signed to an 8-year/$60-million contract extension. We will do as many emergency pods as you need us too, Craig Breslow. Keep 'em coming. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Crazy to think we blew it that fast, huh? We all saw what happened in Texas over the weekend, many akin it to the Alamo. The Boston Red Sox, believe it or not, struck out with runners in scoring position. As my therapist would say, focus on the positives. Chat could not have cooked Tony Mazz any harder after Kristian Campbell showed up with a whole lot of enthusiasm and plenty of good baseball. Go...

It's almost here. Opening Day Christmas is almost here. Are you as excited as we are? It's just about the baseball season, and we have - OPENING DAY JITTERS. Special guest Micah of Ballpark Buzz joins us on this, the episode before opening day baseball 2025. Minutes before recording we received confirmation that Kristian Campbell will be on our opening day roster. Let this description serve as a r...

What a time to be a Red Sox fan! Especially now that our favorite pitcher, Chris Sale, has paid tribute to Luis Tiant. ...what? He doesn't play for...? Wait, yes he does. He doesn't? Then what? When? For WHO? VAUGHN GRISSOM? This is the worst timeline. First, a fit check in the name of baseball. A wool-ish fit and a St Patrick's Day fit with famous Irish baseball player, David O'Tiz. (If you haven...

THE ORIOLES ARE A 92 WIN TEAM. Or so they say. The AL East is undoubtedly the most competitive division in baseball. So we have our frienemies on; budding rivals @JoshSroka, @RW_Harris, @AlexMurphyJour, and @Lizzzzzzzzzzzy of Section 336, Yankee Files, Rays the Roof, and Jay Bird Watching, respectively. Many are saying the Red Sox. MANY. I mean, what are your other options? The limping Yankees? Th...

Spoiler Alert: We are going to start this episode with a lot of hating. As for the Boston Red Sox? Mostly good, mostly good. We don't know what we loved more, Alex Bregman's home run, or... No, it was Alex Bregman's home run. The fight for the Red Sox 2B of the future is on. David Hamilton is showing off, so is Campbell, Mayer, that's right - even me. The bullpen is going hard, too. Hendriks is ba...

Has spring indeed sprung? It seems, indeed, that spring sprang sprung. Ian does this episode from the train. Baseball is back in session and Chris Henrique of Beyond the Monster is helping us get eyes on the notable freshmen. We're talking Roman Anthony, we're talking Carlos Narvaez, we're talking Kristian Campbell, we're talking Quinn Priester. I think I speak for all of us when I say "Fuuuuttuuu...

There’s drama at third base and there are new kids in camp. With the new Alex Bregman signing, is there enough room at third base for Rafael Devers? With all the new kids in Red Sox camp it's no wonder that competition has been on the rise. Let's not forget that some in-house competition is a good problem. What else are we expecting from the new guys? We play a little over/under on some potential...

Pumpsie Green was the first black baseball player to play for the Red Sox and the last black baseball player to overcome the color barrier in the MLB. The Red Sox were notably the last baseball team to add a black player to their major league roster. Featured guest and NESN reporter Jahmai Webster, interviewed Pumpsie Green a few years back. Pumpsie Green hated being a legacy, but he loved being a...

It's the turn of a new leaf. A new season. A new truck. Today is the day the Boston Red Sox load up the truck with all the players and hot dogs that they will need for the next 2 months. We mostly talk about hot dogs in this episode, along with the very unfortunate municipality of Worcester Massachusetts. Did you guys see the truck, by the way? We are excited. The tradition of loading the truck sp...

Can you smell this episode from where you're standing? Where you're sitting? YIKES look at these teams. Sam Kennedy couldn't have picked a better team. You no longer have to wonder if the Red Sox have had six teams worth of garbage in the 21st century. They did. We expose them. You knew them, and we exposed them. There is no need for these player introductions. This is a villain episode. They all...

Anyone know if the Boston Red Sox alarm went off? They're going to be late for the big game! Quick, hurry! Baseball, baseball, baseball! As for shortstop backup plan, we have no shortstop backup plan. As for right-handed bat? We have no right-handed bat. The aces are the aces. We couldn't control their hearts desires. Only money could. Where were we ever supposed to get something like that? In thi...
