Not Another Sox Podcast

For those that don't know JustinMLB, his Twitter bio states that he is "underhated". He is right. Justin is a host on Pod By The River. He won week one and now he thinks he's "all that". Grow up, Justin. Our best and worst players of this week, and our projected best and worst players of the coming week. If Nick Pivetta or Carlos Estevez fail me again, I will send them to the sun. https://linktr.ee/nasppodcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The 2026 baseball season is open. And, just like that, it's over! That's right, we lost two games to old friend Terry Francona and his sidekick Eugenio Suarez. Time to immediately doom and gloom. 162-0 is off the table. Call it a season. What do Garrett Crochet and Connelly Early have in common? Shoved. That's right, shoved. Even better, Wilyer with the bonks. That's why they call him bonkin' Wilyer. Three games in and there's a lot to notice with this team. Even Connor Wong had an extra base hit! Maybe the 2026 Red Sox will be redeemable after all. https://linktr.ee/nasppodcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The day is finally here - opening day baseball. Unfortunate that the opening day is the Yankees (YUCK!) but Thursday at 4pm in Cincinnati, it is your very own Boston Red Sox. The stockings have announced their full roster, including a rotation with Connelly Early. Wowza, gee whiz! Will he carve up the Reds? You are only allowed to vote yes. New food options at Fenway this year! Make sure to eat Lobster Poutine for business purposes ONLY so that it is expensable on your tax returns. This is not financial or tax advice, IRS! Gonna be a hell of a season. Come along with us for the ride. https://linktr.ee/nasppodcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The AL East - The Red Sox, The Blue Jays, The Rays, The Orioles, and even The "Yankees". Some returning friends and some new faces to talk about what they think of their team's offseasons.

Ian is wearing a Mexico shirt, everyone go yell at him on Twitter. We've been glued to our World Baseball Classic screens. As it turns out, this rocks. How does it feel to watch your favorite baseball players playing on massive teams all day every day? The night we are recording is USA vs Mexico. Outside of the final, it's probably the biggest game of the Classic. By the time you read this a winner will have been decided. The winner is the fan. Go baseball.

The World Baseball Classic slams. And the Red Sox are heavily represented. Pool play is next, hear our favorite matchups from Pools A, B, C, and D. That's right, we are also talking about Jarren Duran, team Mexico favorite and Red Sox odd duck outfielder. He looks good in spring training. Apologies, we will not be taking notes on his spring performance at this time. If team Italy wins the WBC, Jack Webster will be giving Ian the dollar.

Baseball games are playing again! Soup to nuts - how did the Red Sox offseason go this winter. Dollar for dollar, pound for pound, what did all of your Fenway hotdogs pay for? It was mostly waiting for Sam Kennedy to get a clue. This team is better. It is. Don't tell me it's not. We would have loved this team with Bregman, Marte, Ryan, but this team is undeniably better than it was. Not the Yankees. Those guys are barely a dingy without a hole.

Tim Healey, Red Sox beat reporter. Raised on the beat streets of Miami and baptized in the Boston fires of the Rafael Devers trade. Tim gives us the low-down - walks us through the marathon, if you will. WBC is coming up, Roman Anthony has been cleared to play for team USA. Tim estimates that he would start for the team 54.5% of the time. Say what you will about Roman Anthony, I love him. Spring training has begun. There are a few early standouts. Believe it or not, Tim likes Wilyer Abreu. He also likes Jake Bennett. I, too, like Wilyer Abreu and Jake Bennett.

For everyone that protested the Bad Bunny show, Alex Cora liked it. Red Sox this week acquired the most rag tag group of infielders. Tsung-Che Cheng, Mickey Gasper, Brendan Rogers, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Caleb Durbin, and both of the other two guys that came over in the Caleb Durbin trade. Breslow really said "Oops, all infielders!" On the other side of the world, Detroit, Skubal sets an arbitration record. Showing up with props to his hearing, his back to back Cy Young awards. Plopping them big, fat awards right on the table. What does that mean for the Red Sox? Nothing, they've already extended Garrett Crochet. Shame there was zero Patriots news this week. The end.

We will be releasing this episode every day for the next 33 years, the same amount of time that Bill Murray was presumably stuck in Groundhog's Day. Which is stupid because if the writers of Groundhog's Day knew anything it's that Bill Murray presumably would have been stuck in Groundhog's Day for 6 weeks. That being said, Jordan Hicks improved the Red Sox today. He now plays for the White Sox. Thanks Breslow, you never let us down! Oh yeah and we are joined by Emmy award winner @SeaDogsMark.

Remember the 2016 Red Sox? Gabby Maljanian of Locked-On Sox surely does. The 2016 Red Sox, somehow, look like a baseball Hollywood walk of fame. Funny because they didn't win the series that year, right? But you know who did win? Rick Porcello, 2016 Cy Young. Crazy, too that this was the final year of David Ortiz' playing career. Reminder that this year he led the league in doubles and RBIs. This was also the year of 9.8 bWAR Mookie Betts. And all-star knuckleballer Steven Wright. And Cubs star closer Aroldis Chapman.

The Red Sox are connected to a plethora of potential trade candidates - some we like (Nico Hoerner) more than others (Brendan Donovan). Like, significantly more. There was also plenty of record setting and record cucking news in baseball this week - including Kyle Tucker to the Dodgers on the largest AAV contract ever given out, and Bo Bichette to the Mets on the Bregman sweetheart deal. The Mets are the weirdest group of infielders I think I've seen, maybe ever. Paredes is the most likely option to end up in Boston, but he is just not worth a singular Brayan Bello or Jarren Duran. We think by next week, SOMETHING falls into place (like the long Tetris piece). Linktree NASP Instagram NASP Twitter Ian's Twitter Jack's Twitter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Boston Red Sox sign an actual player to an actual deal. Yes, in the year of our lord 2026, Craig Breslow gives $130mm to Ranger Suarez. Of the three available Suarezes on the market, this one is by far our favorite. To think Suarez and Gray are splitting the duties as your #2 and #3 pitchers respectively is all Red Sox fans have dreamed about since 2018. Finally, the Red Sox sign a player for just money. No prospects, no contract splits, just money. There's still some redeeming to do so keep it together, Breslow.

Breslow, you f*cking stiff. You let Bregman walk. And for what? For a no-trade clause? Really? What are we doing here? We are joined by newly minted king of the Barstool barverse @Hogdale_ who was in Chicago when the deal went down. Think of it like the girl from Hereditary who is by herself at the party and then on the car ride home sticks her head out the window to be decapitated. The (Red Sox) nation turns it's eyes to Bichette, who we unfortunately have zero faith that the front office will pony up the money it takes to fill this Bregman-sized hole in the lineup.

Fenway Park - it is OLD, it is GREASY, and it IS our favorite ballpark. We cover a LOT of ground. Firstly, player signings like Paul DeJong to the Yankees (hilarious) and Kazuma Okamoto to the Blue Jays (and what that means of the likelihood of a Bregman reunion??). We also cover how the current events in Venezuela might affect the baseball climate. The WBC might be a little tense. The Red Sox also have multiple players from Venezuela signed to the team. The events in Venezuela affect MLB and all baseball players. And THEN our favorite things about Fenway. Like I said - we cover a lot of ground!

From the Cardinals trades to Twitter's finest, it has definitely proved to be as spicy as it has been boring for the Red Sox. Sonny Gray and Willson Contreras are both welcome additions to the Red Sox. They were the right moves. No free agents yet... Come on Craig, don't let us down. Twitter has been the most entertaining part of the offseason! At the hands of prominent Red Sox troll @KutterIsKing, both Cam Schlittler and Jazz Chisholm have been ratio-ed. May they RIP in peace.
