Red Sox Are 2-7 | The One Where The Front Office Fails... Again

The Red Wedding at Fenway: Cora FIRED, 5 Coaches Gone | 64 Deep

The Red Wedding came to Fenway. Hours after Boston dropped 17 runs on Baltimore in their most convincing win of the season, John Henry, Sam Kennedy, and Craig Breslow walked into the team hotel and gutted the staff. Alex Cora — fired. Five coaches — gone. Jason Varitek — reassigned. The first in-season managerial firing in 24 years of Fenway Sports Group ownership. In this episode of 64 Deep — A Red Sox Podcast: → Who got the axe and who survived (and what that tells you about where the rot really is) → Why the firing was the RIGHT call at 10-17, even if the timing made no sense → The lazy take we're DEMOLISHING: "They didn't fire the pitching staff!" — here's why that's BS → Garrett Crochet's 7.58 ERA vs. his 3.66 SIERA — what the numbers actually say → Full breakdown of the Breslow & Kennedy press conference at Camden Yards → Who is Chad Tracy? The Worcester manager who just inherited the dugout → The Jim Tracy / Alex Cora connection nobody is talking about → Why Tracy's relationship with Anthony, Mayer, Campbell, and the rest of the young core is the whole reason he got the job ⚾ THE NUMBERS THAT TELL THE STORY: - 10-17 record, last place AL East, 7.5 games behind the Yankees - .226/.306/.335 team slash line through 26 games - Tied for last in MLB in home runs (18) - Worst OPS against fastballs in baseball (.621) - 1 home run off fastballs all year out of 288 league-wide 🎙 ABOUT 64 DEEP: Deep Analysis.

The Real Willson Contreras Just Stood Up | 64 Deep

Willson Contreras is ON FIRE. Caleb Durbin is ice cold. And we need to talk about both. Contreras went 6-for-10 with a HR and 6 RBI this weekend in St. Louis — the real version of the guy the Red Sox traded for is finally showing up. Meanwhile, Caleb Durbin is still hitting .103 and we break down why Chandler Simpson (.370+, 5 SB) is the archetype of the player Boston needs him to become. Spoiler: the Red Sox were never going to get Simpson — but that's the standard. Also on this episode: * Masataka Yoshida is quietly leading the team in OBP (.519) — should he be the leadoff hitter? * Ranger Suárez threw 6 scoreless innings Saturday after an 8.64 ERA in his first two starts. The $130M man is here. * Roman Anthony's growing pains continue * Minor league report: Kristian Campbell hits his first HR of 2026 and Nick Sogard stays hot in Worcester The Red Sox took 2 of 3 in St. Louis and head to Minnesota next.

Red Sox Are 2-7 | The One Where The Front Office Fails... Again

The Red Sox dropped to 2-7 and this front office has receipts piling up. James Tibbs III — the prospect Boston traded to the Dodgers — just hit 3 home runs in one game for Triple-A Oklahoma City. He has 7 HRs in 8 games hitting .514. Meanwhile the Red Sox can't score. Munetaka Murakami, the slugger Boston lost to the White Sox in free agency, has 4 HRs in 8 career games and just made history as the most prolific Japanese-born power hitter in MLB debut history. The Red Sox pivoted to Willson Contreras instead — he's hitting .150. Kyle Harrison struck out 8 in his Brewers debut. The Brewers are 5-1. Boston traded him for Caleb Durbin, who started the year 0-for-19 and got booed at Fenway. Trevor Story is hitting .138 with 13+ strikeouts and committed an error in Houston. Jarren Duran is at .167. Both Duran AND Durbin were pinch-hit for in Saturday's one-run loss. If you have a real lineup, that never happens. Big John and Big Country break down every ugly angle of this 2-7 start — the offensive free fall, the front office failures, and why this roster is at least one big-time bat short. Deep Analysis.

Masataka Mania in the WBC, Payton Tolle, Johan Oviedo and Connelly Early Ace-in-the-making Dilemma

🔥 EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: • Who wins the 5th starter job — Tolle, Early, or Oviedo? • Payton Tolle strikes out 7 Yankees & hits 100.4 mph • Connelly Early's velo jumps to 97+ mph this spring • Johan Oviedo's turnaround after erratic debut • Service time manipulation — why it's already decided • Masataka Yoshida is a WBC MONSTER — go-ahead HR vs Australia today Spring training is heating up and the Red Sox have a good problem — three arms who all deserve the 5th rotation spot. Payton Tolle just threw 3 scoreless innings against the Yankees with 7 Ks and touched 100.4 mph. Connelly Early added 15 pounds of muscle and his fastball is averaging 95.3 mph, up from 94.0 last year. And Johan Oviedo bounced back from a rough debut with back-to-back scoreless outings. So who gets the nod? We break down the spring stats, the arsenal updates, and the service time elephant in the room that means Early (35 days) and Tolle (46 days) are almost certainly heading to Worcester regardless of how they pitch. Plus — Masataka Yoshida is RAKING in the World Baseball Classic. 2 homers, 6 RBI through 3 games, including a clutch go-ahead 2-run shot against Australia with the Japanese Emperor watching. Is WBC Yoshida about to show up for the regular season? And where does he even play with the outfield stacked? 🍺 "Deep Analysis. Deeper Frustration.
