00:00Yeah, I don't know if it's a good time to be a Red Sox right now.
00:01You're a game under .500.
00:03Maybe a week ago it was.
00:05I would say this week, not so much.
00:07Not a good week to be a Red Sox.
00:08And I don't even want to point to the standings or where the other teams are in the American League
00:14because I'd put that to the side.
00:16Yeah, you're not buried because nobody's running away with it in the American League,
00:20so you always have that in your back pocket, but it should be more about how you're playing.
00:24Are you going to go on a run?
00:25Are you going to play better?
00:27And not, well, we're kind of keeping pace.
00:29It's like, is that what you want?
00:30You want to be 81-81 and a couple games out of the wild card?
00:33No.
00:34You're worse than you were a year ago.
00:35Right.
00:35And that team was a joke.
00:36Yeah.
00:37So, I mean, it should be as simple as that.
00:39Where's the urgency?
00:40And I would tie that in at first base.
00:42You can jump in, 6-1-7, 7-7-9, 7-9-3-7.
00:46Early in the week, Monday, we gave you our plans at first base.
00:49I want Devers there.
00:50I want Roman Anthony up in the big club, DH-ing, playing some outfield.
00:53Keefe wants to slide Christian Campbell over to first base.
00:57He has your cleanup hitter, so you might as well.
00:59Get Marcelo Meyer up here playing second.
01:01Marcelo Meyer, friend of the show.
01:02Yes.
01:03Web gem yesterday.
01:04Deep in the hole.
01:05In Worcester.
01:06Great play.
01:06No, man.
01:07So, if he can do that at short, he could come up to the big leagues you would imagine
01:10and play some second base.
01:11Either plan is better than what they're doing, which, again, is Abraham Toro.
01:15Yeah.
01:16You know, base mark, though.
01:17Mixed in with some Romy Gonzalez.
01:19That's not going to cut it.
01:20That's the plan, apparently, short-term, for the Red Sox.
01:24Breslows seem to leave the door open with Rafael Devers.
01:26Cora has consistently slammed it shut.
01:29Cora before the game.
01:30This is good.
01:30All right.
01:31You talked about the Romy first base thing the other day.
01:34Have you had any conversations with him, though?
01:37No.
01:39Don't plan to?
01:40No.
01:41Just, I mean.
01:43You're not going to ask him?
01:44That's unbelievable.
01:45It's like not.
01:46That's like the Breslows team playoff team?
01:47Yeah.
01:48It's not.
01:48It's not.
01:49Is he going to play first base?
01:50You say no to that.
01:51You didn't talk to him?
01:51No, no.
01:52Have you asked him about it?
01:53Nope.
01:54Do you plan on it?
01:55Nope.
01:55Like, that's wild.
01:57It's honestly flabbergasting that they don't have a first baseman plan.
02:00Like, it's an obvious thing.
02:02Like, if you build a roster, you have your starting lineup, and then you have your replacements.
02:06You should have across the board, like, a depth chart.
02:10Like, if fans at home have, like, have a depth chart or access to a depth chart, how do you not?
