Episode 37 - 06/30/2026 - Red Sox - Yankees Rivalry Returns

Over this past weekend, the Boston Red Sox did the unthinkable and swept the New York Yankees at Fenway Park in an epic 4 game series for the first time since 2018!  Wally was out with the broom and we couldn’t believe our eyes.  The pitching of Connelly Early, Payton Tolle, Jake Bennett and Sonny Gray was superb.   The promotion of Anthony Seigler, received in the offseason Milwaukee Brewers trade, and the passion of Willson Contreras, following the devastating Venezuelan earthquakes, help propel the Boston offense to success. The roll continued in game 1 against the Washington Nationals with another win, making it a season-high streak of 5 consecutive wins! In AAA Worcester, Brayan Bello had a quality outing giving up just 1 run at Polar Park on Thursday, June 25.

Episode 36 - 06/13/2026 - Hope has left the building for the Red Sox

With a record of 28 - 39 up to this point, hope is fleeting and a .500 record is so far off in the distance that the Artemis II crew would have had a better chance of locating this pie in the sky, than the 2026 Boston Red Sox. While there have been some bright spots in Willson Contreras (could pitchers stop hitting him, though?), Sonny Gray and Connelly Early, the bats are completely MIA. Garrett Crochet’s injury has been far more pronounced than originally publicized and he will not be able to save the team from themselves this year. Will ownership make a major move at the trade deadline as any kind of reprieve for this abysmal offensive production?  (Probably not, but let’s commiserate together!)

Episode 35 - 05/30/2026 - Sonny Gray dominates against Cleveland and will the Red Sox be sellers at the trade deadline?

After a disasterous series against the Minnesota Twins and then a stunning sweep against the Kansas City Royals, the Boston Red Sox are giving us whiplash as we struggle to define the team’s identity after 1/3 of the season is over! Sonny Gray and Connolly Early continue to be starting Aces. The bats of Caleb Durbin, Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Jarren Duran have heated up. Willson Contreras is honored as the American League player of the week. Should the Red Sox be willing to part with Aroldis Chapman or Garrett Whitlock at the trade deadline?

Episode 34 - 05/12/2026 - Red Sox continue their stumbles

The Tampa Bay Rays came to town with Junior Caminero, Yandy Diaz and Chandler Simpson hitting all over Fenway Park. How can the Red Sox overcome their challenges and is Willson Contreras returning anytime soon after being hit by a pitch? Also, why are we pinch hitting for Masataka Yoshida but not Caleb Durbin? Mickey Gaspar returns to the majors and makes us wonder why he ever left!   **correction - the Red Sox will play Philadelphia at home, not away

Episode 33 - 05/02/2026 - The Magic of the Fenway Greens Strikes Again

Hurray for another Friday win in the Fenway Greens! The move to Chad Tracy seems to reset the tone with the team. But does someone have a Voodoo Doll of Red Sox pitchers? Pitching IL Woes Garrett Crochet Johan Oviedo Sonny Gray Tyler Uberstine Tyler Samaniego Justin Slaten And how do we solve the Brayan Bello question? Happy Birthday to Wally, on May 3!
