Red Sox President and CEO Sam Kennedy joins Joe Castiglione and Will Flemming from the booth. 

Mut is joined by Bradfo who is in Fort Myers to react to all the Red Sox spring training news. Chris Sale won’t be ready for the start of the season, but how big of a blow is it to the Red Sox rotation? With Sale out for the start of the season, who will replace him and how will that affect the bullpen? Will the Red Sox be signing Devers to a long term deal and will they be making any more free agency moves? 

Red Sox second baseman Christian Arroyo joined the show to talk about his offseason preparation, the impact that the late Jerry Remy had on him, the return of the fans at Fenway, the banning of defensive shifts, and free agent Freddie Freeman.

Boston Red Sox pitcher Chris Sale met with the media to talk about the stress fracture in his rib cage that will be sidelining him presumably for a couple of months. Sale goes into detail about how it happened and what he expects going forward.

Brian and Mego are joined by Will Flemming to break down MLB free agency so far and if the Red Sox will be making a big splash before opening day. They also talk about the Red Sox pitching additions and if the Red Sox need to still add more pitching. Will the Red Sox be signing Bogaerts and Devers to long term deals this season?

Put Allison from Cabridge in the Caller Hall of Fame! Allison does NOT like the idea that Xander Bogaerts could be out of Boston soon. Why rely so heavily on the future and worry about money? Allison wants fans to LOVE the Sox and Xander is part of that. 

Bradfo and Barrett welcome in Red Sox rising-prospect Durbin Feltman who calls in from work in Fort Myers. Durbin talks about the awkward career moment when he expected to be taken in the Rule 5 draft...which was cancelled. He gives some insight into one topic that few go into: the difference between the baseballs used in minor leagues versus the majors. Durbin also talks about what it was like to work with Chris Sale at the "top notch" Polar Park. Lastly, Durbin names one teammate he feels he could beat in a footrace!

Red Sox prospect (and possible 2022 big leaguer) Durbin Feltman joins Bradfo and Barrett to talk just how strange the Rule 5, lockout, and promotion process has been for him. Bradfo and Barrett also discuss the likelihood (or lack of) that Xander Bogaerts fits into Chaim Bloom's future plans for the Red Sox. Coop Leonard also joins to share what he saw as the most important/viral baseball clips on social media from the past week.
