We're a week into the offseason and we're talking about how each member of the podcast has dealt with having no Red Sox baseball to watch. Jared vows to not beat the Xander negotiations into the ground every week, but to only bring it up when we have a new piece of news. Well this week we have some news. Apparently John Henry sat down with Xander briefly after the season ended to make it known that Red Sox ownerships wants to keep him in Boston. We break down what this means and what the next ne...

The 2022 Boston Red Sox season has come to an end. Thank you to all the 162 guys/girls who stuck it out with us this year. We appreciate all of you and we can’t wait to run it back in 2023. We have a full crew tonight to breakdown the end of the season. Jared is hearing rumors that people within the organization are optimistic about a Xander return. Pat is guaranteeing that he reaches free agency due to his representation. Speaking of Pat, he and Tyler have not interacted since the infamous watc...

We’re back and yes, we’re still watching Red Sox games. The Red Sox got swept by the Blue Jays but who cares? If you want to hear about that series you can skip to the third hour of this podcast. Today we have Will Middlebrooks on the pod to talk about his time in the booth, learning from Eck, teaching Wacha his best pitch, the 2013 Championship team, and endless stories from his time as a player. It goes without saying that we’d all like to see more of Will next year both in the booth and as a ...

Jared made his NESN booth debut on Tuesday night which felt like it was a long time coming. He takes us through his whole experience including getting a FaceTime from David Ortiz while he was on the field and then catching up with him in his suite before the appearance. Between throwing out the first pitch and being in the broadcast booth he's had some major bucket list moments checked off this year. We talk about how comfortable Will Middlebrooks seems in the booth and speculate on whether this...

Tyler got obliterated on Friday night but shockingly that's not where we're starting this podcast. First of all, how the fuck does Pat Light not show up for this episode? Second of all, how the fuck does Pete not show up for the watch party? We're uncovering the reasoning behind both before we dive into Tyler's performance at the Cask. In case you didn't check Twitter this weekend, Tyler's big night lived up to the hype and Pat successfully got him the drunkest he's ever been. We had videos of h...

It’s a throwback to 2015 Section 10 as Jared and Pete are taking questions from listeners. But first, Jared talks about waking up and immediately going in on Babe Ruth. Let’s just say the old folks weren’t happy. Jared also talks about his new NESN show “Like A Pro” dropping today and his time on the pregame show with Brock Holt. Jared and Pete then dive into some questions about how they started their careers, old section 10 stories, most underrated Red Sox players, superpowers, and more. Garre...

Kevin Plawecki was designated for assignment by the Red Sox on Friday. He joins the podcast to not only give his thoughts on the decision, but to recount his career in Boston as a whole. From being the personal catcher for Eovaldi and Wacha, to creating a rallying cry for the 2021 Red Sox with Dancing On My Own, Plawecki has been a pillar in the clubhouse for the last three years and his teammates made it well-known that his presence will be missed. We talk to him about his reaction to getting D...

Everyone’s on the show tonight which completely takes Jared by surprise. Jared and Tyler might move in with Pete in Waltham because of the commute to the Sports Hub. The Yankees broadcast is laughing at us as the Red Sox go viral AGAIN for playing like a Little League team. Jared has a feeling that Xander wants to stay with the Red Sox but the front office is going to have to make him feel the same way, which starts by signing Devers. We play the Aaron Judge audio where he talks about how great ...

We kick off the pod with a quick 15 on dinosaurs before we introduce the 2023 Boston Red Sox Ark. We’re going name by name down the Red Sox roster and deciding who gets an invite on the 2023 Ark and who doesn’t. We call up our pal Coley to help us figure out the Ark list. We decide that the major overhaul this offseason is going to have to be the rotation and Tyler poses a question on whether people think the Red Sox are still trying to make Garrett Whitlock a starter. Coley floats hypotheticals...

The Red Sox signed Kiké Hernandez to a one-year deal and we finally are seeing some direction from the Red Sox front office. The Red Sox playoff chances are now somewhere in the 0.2%-0.4% range which pretty much puts a cap on the season. Although they were swept by the Rays, we talk about how we didn’t really feel anything from these losses and the attention has shifted to our 2023 roster. Kiké dropped an interesting quote from Chaim Bloom claiming that he promised next year’s team will be “way ...

Happy flight, happy podcast. The Red Sox swept the pathetic Texas Rangers and their chances to make the playoffs have skyrocketed from 0.4% to 2% which is a 500% increase. Let’s just say there’s people within the organization that think there’s still a chance. Triston Casas made his long-awaited major league debut on Sunday, but not before he did some sunbathing in the outfield. We talk about how cool it was to see what should be the Red Sox future core infield all start together for the first t...

The Red Sox won the last game of the series so this is going to be a positive podcast. We talk about how the last episode of each series dictates the mood of the pod, and if we’re going to be negative after losses then we have to be positive after wins. Tyler goes off on Ryan Brasier and doesn’t understand why he’s still on the roster. Pete introduces his new segment, “Talking’ Head Cocks.” We also come to the conclusion that Ryan Brasier exclusively has threesomes. In an interview with the Mexi...

The Red Sox won a series and about two minutes into the show Jared unintentionally breaks some news which becomes official 30 seconds later. There’s been a shakeup in the bullpen as Big Fudge and Sawamura have been DFA’d. We’re reacting to the series win against the Rays and Rich Hill’s DOMINATE outing on Saturday. We’re also talking about Chaim Bloom’s job security and how important it is for him to have a good offseason. Not only is Matt Barnes BACK, he’s the deciding vote in this episode’s KK...

Tonight we all hopped into the meeting and just started laughing. Another brutal series for the Red Sox. There's basically nothing to be excited about for the rest of the season so that's cool. We tried to spin things in a positive direction after about 20 minutes of negativity but it was pretty much impossible. The Red Sox can't get the ball in play when they need to, they're trotting out older guys in the lineup and on the mound that have no future with the team, the chase rate as Tyler points...

The Red Sox lost two out of three to the Orioles this weekend and despite some people saying Sunday's loss was the biggest of the year, Positive Paul is back. He thinks six games back of the third wild card spot in late August is a great spot to be at. Jared adds in some positivity saying if the Sox didn't give up a 15-spot on Friday night they easily could've won that game. Xander Bogaerts was ejected for the second time in his career and his frustration is becoming more and more apparent. We t...

It’s a full house tonight as we’re “celebrating” another series win for the Red Sox. We start off the show talking about the blowout loss to one of the worst teams in the league then quickly transition to how bad Austin Davis has been. After some more negativity, Positive Pat declares that he’s back and puts a positive spin on how the Red Sox have been playing over the past week. Josh Winckowski’s numbers are pretty awful and Tyler tries to make a comparison that Jared and Pat will not stand for...

Jared threw out the first pitch on Sunday Night Baseball before a Red Sox/Yankees game and it was right down the dick. He talks about the days leading up to what turned out to be the biggest moment of his life. Special guest Coley Mick joins the pod to talk about both Jared's first pitch but also the state of the Sox. Tonight Klark's Ketchup MVP comes with some pretty big controversy. Tyler and Coley take over and start what could potentially be the number one Red Sox podcast in the universe. At...

Pat just got back from dinner and definitely didn't drink at all. That being said, he admits to drinking about 30 seconds later. Pat comes in hot and accuses Pete of missing episodes when he said he wouldn't. He also takes it upon himself to teach Name Redacted listeners the ins and outs of both acquiring a professional sports franchise, and how to responsibly go into debt at favorable interest rates. This is exactly how we expected the bonus episode to start. Meanwhile, the Red Sox won their fi...

It's not only a full crew tonight, but also a full crew tomorrow night for a bonus episode! Who doesn't want more Red Sox content right now! Pat joins for the fourth straight episode which means tomorrow night we'll be getting Pat's Picks! Tyler was out last week so we get his reaction to the abysmal Royals series coupled with his thoughts about getting swept by the Braves. We unintentionally rip apart Darwinzon Hernandez for over 10 minutes but who can really blame us. Positive Pat has left the...

This team fucking sucks but we're still gonna make it a fun episode. The Red Sox currently have a 16.2% chance to make the playoffs and that seems extremely high. We came into this series looking for a sweep and worst-case three out of four, but the Red Sox DROPPED three of four to the goddamn Royals. Yikes. Once again we're looking at the owners/front office and are trying to make heads or tails of some of these decisions that, at this point, seem inexcusable. Renfroe and Schwarber have combine...

Pat Light got ABSOLUTELY FLAMED by Will Flemming on the Red Sox broadcast Wednesday afternoon and we get his live reaction to the audio. This transitions nicely into a discussion about current MLB players (some of which are All-Stars) that the Red Sox could've picked before they drafted Pat Light. Pat also gets into his sit-down interview with Barbara Walters on 60 minutes. We then get some quick movie recommendations by Sandra before we dive into some Red Sox talk. In Episode 34, we're breaking...

Today we're celebrating the fact that the Red Sox didn't get swept. Woo Whoo! Pat shockingly joins for the second straight episode and breaks down his $93k night in Vegas. We go line by line of his receipt and talk about our favorite lines, including the $312 he spent on fucking WATER. In classic Pat fashion he mentions a couple competing sponsors that need to get bleeped out and then we move onto Red Sox talk. Meanwhile, Tyler is having an all-time battle with his computer/internet situation. B...

In a shocking turn of events, Pat Light is rearing to go for Episode 32 of the Name Redacted Pod. We start out hot with a tweet from Christ Cotillo claiming Pat Light has been mentioned in trade to acquire Coley from Barstool. We break down Pat's value to the pod and talk about what his value could be elsewhere (which we decide is quite minimal). Right before we started recording we had a big quote drop from Xander saying that he was informed that he will NOT be traded before the deadline. We di...

The kids are fucking starving but Tyler’s still ripping the 9’s. The Sox lose ANOTHER AL East series, this time in embarrassing fashion. This is one of those series that you can’t even break down game by game since it was such a dumpster fire, so we go big picture. What’s the plan for this team? Are they buyers or sellers at the deadline? If we let Xander walk how is Cora going to feel? If we aren’t signing Devers then what the hell was the point of the Mookie trade? We talk about how all of our...

What the hell was that? The Red Sox absolutely crawl into the All-Star break losing six of their last seven games to division opponents and very realistically could've been swept back to back. After a miracle of a win on Friday night, the Sox got absolutely smacked around for the rest of the weekend getting outscored by the Yankees 27-3. On top of that, after years of waiting for a healthy Chris Sale to come back and lead this starting rotation, he takes a 106mph come-backer to his throwing hand...

Jared and Pete start the show by addressing Sunday night's episode and the fact that everyone thought we were drunk. Can't a few pals get together to worship the lord every now and then without being accused of intoxication? A fake Jesus guy reached out to Jared after the show and tried to apologize for scaring him as a child. Turns out he was less of a J guy and more of a D guy. Anyways, Sox got swept. The one positive that came out of this series was that Alex Cora dunked all over Chris Cotill...

Jared, Pat, Pete, and Jake are live in-person at Jared's apartment recording the pod with a very special guest. Sandra makes her debut on the pod to break down the ins and outs of her relationship with Pat and friendship with Jared. But before we get into the Sandra situation we of course have to hold hands, bow our heads, and join in prayer. We hit four different prayer sessions today led by Jared, Pete, and two by Jake. Between prayers and talking with Sandra we also mix in a little baseball t...

If you're trashing Brayan Bello right now you need to do some self reflecting. Plenty of guys have had much worse major league debuts than Bello's on Wednesday night and have went on to have HOF careers. If there's anything to complain about in this series it's the offense and the bullpen. After a couple solid outings, Sawamura is back to his usual tricks and posted one of the worst spray charts we've ever seen tonight. Hansel Robles was also DFA'd after Tuesday's outing which seemed like a move...

Jared and Jake were lucky enough to be at Wrigley Field this weekend to witness some of the worst Red Sox baseball of the year. Jarren Duran and Tanner Houck were on Jared and Jake's flight to Chicago which led to Jarren telling Jared some alleged breaking news. Jake got mistaken for Tyler at Wrigley Field which lowkey ended up being a shot at Tyler. No one knows why we didn't see Austin Davis during this series until Jared texts Cora, and now it all makes sense. Jared has been playing an extrem...

Pete rejoins the show and should be on the majority of episodes for the foreseeable future now that hockey season is over. Jared addresses the Twitter drama that ensued on Tuesday night after Steve decided to be a dildo again. Why can't we all just be friends and coexist? We're also breaking down the disappointment that was Tuesday night as we were soooo close to being able to say it but came up short due to ANOTHER blown save by the bullpen. When will it end? It's Jared and Pete's first solo po...
