We kick things off with a quick recap of William’s Little League coaching weekend before diving into the bombshell Rafael Devers trade (2:50), which sent the Red Sox slugger to the Giants in exchange for a couple of pitchers and a prospect. Is Boston cutting costs again? Was the Devers–front office relationship beyond repair? Is Devers a perfect fit for SF? Will he be willing to play 1B now? We break down all sides of the shocking move.
Then, we recap the Yankees–Red Sox series (25:16), where the Yankees were swept and managed just 4 runs across the weekend. From ugly baserunning to strikeout woes and wasted pitching performances, we dig into what went wrong and how New York can bounce back.
We wrap with our MLB weekend recap (43:48), including William’s Sunday trip to Wrigley, the red-hot Reds, a bunch of sweeps across the league, and whether the Astros are quietly becoming one of the best teams in baseball.
