Gordo, Sammy, and Pat are all gushing about Roman Anthony's first big time moment as a visitor in the historic Red Sox-Yankees rivalry.

For the first time in a while, Gordo and Sammy react to a series loss from the Red Sox in San Diego against the Padres. Was this past weekend about what the Sox couldn't do or how good San Diego is? Also, there seems to be some great pitching depth that should be used whether its for Walker Buehler or a skipped start for Lucas Giolito.

Safe to say Gordo, Sammy, and Pat aren't happy with the Red Sox action (or lack thereof) at the trade deadline. How frustrated are the guys with the Sox only grabbing a reliever in Steven Matz and a low-end starter in Dustin May? Also, even without big additions, the Sox are still a capable playoff team if the ball bounces the right way for them.
