"Baseball games back in MLB 2021, especially if you get to October you need as many guys, you can kind of in that boat phone well and you need to run up against a team that is not going to be as particular when they're swinging at pitches. Meaning you need to face teams that are going going to be more aggressive because I found in watching these games that dead When you have hard throwers out of the bullpen, if you run up against the line up that it's going to take pictures and has no problem hitting with two strikes. Those are the teams that usually have success, waiting out and throwers in the bullpen. Yeah, absolutely. And that's one of the good things about the Red Sox offense, when they're going. Well, is that, you know, they can beat good teams. They can be good, pitching staffs. And you know, these are actually laborers. They're just even have, they're going to have to get back to pounding. The strike zone, kind of trusting the stuff. I've seen a lot of nibbling going on lately and Barnes just has to get back to where he was early. And when he was just kind of go after guys, and ladies looked kind of more like the old pre 2021 Matt Barnes where he's nibbling around and tracks, you know, he's got a great curveball. But God, you got a ninety-six ninety-seven, my yes, humans the basketball. Yeah, and it had to be aggressive especially if it drives me crazy. Try guys are nibbling at the bottom of the order and I've seen birth. Sounds like walking number nine, enter cuz he's throwing too many curveballs. When you have like a, you know, the the top of the order coming up, just don't do that. Don't slow their baths down, you know, just he involved in the meat of the order. Just just use your fast football. And I think that's with Barnes need to do is he just needs to get back to being aggressive and trusting that, that could fast-forward, he has, how does a pitching rotation lineup for this week with the Yankees? I haven't taken. Yeah, they're going to go the, it's listed to the TV only because they're going out. And, and of all the in the first in a doubleheader, what they hadn't for some reason, they haven't disclosed, which order they're going to be in yet. So it's going to be how kind of all the in some order against, you know, then they're going to go with pivetta in the Wednesday game in New York. Then you have sailed back out there Friday against Texas and Iran Saturday. So it shapes have to be a pretty good week for the Red Sox. Pitching wise at these guys can kind of do what they should do. I think it's going to be really exciting to age. Enter how pitch in Yankee Stadium and of all the it's just been an absolute Yankee killer track since since he joined the Red Sox. I mean he just every time he pitches against them pretty much a 01 run. So I think there is a good shape to at the very least split that double-headed on Tuesday, which is what they need to do. They don't need to sweep and they just need to split it and then hopefully when they came on on Wednesday get out of there and win two out of three months. Yeah. TBD against Gil and then TBD against Montgomery in The nightcap on Tuesday. And then Wednesday, Nick pivetta goes off keys are still TBD on that..

Talk to you again. It's been a long time. You were the first guests on my iteration of the Red Sox, beat podcast, and I do appreciate it way back. When a lot has changed for the Red Sox since we last spoke, most prominently the return of their race. Chris Sale on Saturday, in the 16 to, to romp the Red Sox offense, took a lot of the pressure off off Chris Sale. Number 41, making it pretty easy for him. But still sale looked very sharp five innings, six hits and I don't know about you. He allowed two runs in the five innings, but the most impactful. Something about Saturday, the eight strikeouts and no walks that to me, tells me that he had really good control and command of all of his pictures. Yeah. It was really encouraging him to come in and after not pitching in a major league game for two years and pitched with with that kind of control. And you know, everybody else was was kept, being was kind of being patient bit and wondering how he would be. When he when he first got back and say I was like man this isn't just I'm not just going to ease into this. This is kind of, this is Go Time, so he's been getting ready for this but you know, you know, his work ethic, nobody works harder, nobody's more determined. And you know, he just, he looks better to, he got into great shape, he put on a little pigs, believe it or not. I put on a little bit of weight, you know, during this will it stay here will stay. That's what I wonder where the guy with the physique and a metabolism like Chris Sale, you know, he puts Wait on and hopefully in the right places and in the right ways, but the idea is so that he has more endurance, more strength toward the end of the season. Now, fortunately for him, his Seasons, not going to be very long. This is really for him. Like, what twenty twenty was for most of Major League, Baseball, a Sprint. So it's a Sprint to the Finish. Is that really the mentality? He's taken. Yeah, I think so. I think home and, and look, this is huge for the Red Sox to have him back at completely changes. The complexion and a team, you know, you look at yesterday and water Rodriguez, right? Pictures are great game and now suddenly, he's the number two starter and he looks a whole lot better. And then, number two. Slapping. This is a one, Nathan eovaldi. Looks a lot better is a free than he does is a two and then you have Tanner how they're young exciting prospect. I'm just going to pitch one of the games against the Yankees and the doubleheader. He, you know, he's, he is Nick pivetta and prevent us has some great moments this year.

"Talking to these guys. What did you find was your first impression about the negro leagues from having talked with them. What did you come away with. As far as an impression of the sport and of the game itself played by the african american players The first impression that i came away with was that these guys played essentially major league baseball without playing in the major leagues. They were making buyers. Many of these guys were better than major league baseball players but they were shut out from playing in the major and then my other biggest takeaway is probably the fact that there was no documentation or recognition of these guys of their careers and that that really Kind of stood out to me. What struck me is is that i didn't realize how big the negro leagues were. And maybe you can give us some insight about how big they were and how important it was to the african culture in other words the black people in this country. That blacks were playing the national pastime. Yeah it was. It was huge business. I mean it was one of the top businesses among blacks during The period of the negro leagues starting in nineteen twenty going to the early sixty. In addition to the the main negro themselves do where hundreds of regional and semi pro teams scattered around the country which were also big business is really just. It brought the whole community together. People dress up in their nicest clothes. Some of these games would attract fifteen twenty. Thirty thousand people The negro league east west all star games often attracted more people than major league. All star game so yeah it was. It was a huge deal for for the community at the time and also lends itself because during that period of time. Baseball always had great personalities. Great stories and as you've talked to these players that played in the negro leagues. What are some of your favorite stories that you've heard from them out There's so many spoken with probably two or three hundred guys Unfortunately many of the stories. I've heard are not. I don't wanna say favorite stories because they kind of have you know. sad seems to them or or negative aspects to where they were chased out of town or their bus broke down. And you know nobody helped them out but there are some pretty cool stories about guys You know this isn't one particular story but many of the guys have spoken with where sixteen seventeen years old and just hopped on a buff and next thing. I knew they were playing professional baseball. One of my buddies out here in los angeles. Nee dancy he was sitting in the stands when he was about thirteen or fourteen years old watching his older brother play on the memphis red sox and all of a sudden they just needed somebody to come in and fill in so he went from never having really played baseball before to playing on the memphis. Red sox and the negro league At the still in player for one game and several months later ended up going out on the road and playing with methods red sox a teenager and several years later he rejoined into the negro league. Play two years with the kansas city. Monarchs playing in one of the east west all star games where he was a starter and i think he was. Mvp of the game as well so pretty pretty crazy. How guy just became a professional baseball player from sitting in the stands to playing the game right then and there cam. Did you get an impression. And i've got this when talking over the years to a couple of the negro league players that they were enamored with the movie about bingo on traveling all star team of african american black players. Have you gotten any impression for many of them about how they felt the way the game and also the neighbor league baseball player was portrayed in the movie. You know. I don't bring that movie up All that much but a lot of guys look at that movie and they say you know like we were. We were serious team. The negro league was not a joke. yes. There was a little bit of clowning around on the indianapolis clowns baseball team. Which is kind of like what that movie was modeled after the indianapolis concert. Kind of the harlem globetrotters But they also played a very good high-quality baseball as well so guys look at that and say hey look this is a little bit of not an embarrassment but an exaggeration and it kind of dragged down the credibility of the league. I guess you could sex. What sense of personal satisfaction do you get and having done this for a long period of time and bringing to the forefront the history of negro league baseball on its players. i really enjoy When people reach out to me. Or i get to tell somebody about the negro league and they don't know anything about it and next thing. I know they're googling negro league they wanna meet a player or player and their cities coming out to their school to talk. I really just enjoy Seeing people learn And educate themselves about this essentially forgotten part of history in baseball history. One of the things that i sense in talking to the negro baseball players that i've interviewed is that i'd never once have. I heard any anger about their exclusion for major league baseball. I guess be a an acceptance of. That's the way it was at that particular point. You've talked to money more than i have. What sense do you get about how they feel about that period of time you know. It really varies based on the player many players are just grateful that they were able to participate in the negro league play professional baseball for several years but many of the players also went on and after their negro league days went on and played in the minor leagues for dozens of years or three or four years or maybe even half a season and then they got cut so there are. There are many guys that i've spoken with. That played in. The negro league went onto the minors and then played in triple a for three or four years and it just never able to make that break into the majors. A lot of those guys are are a little bit bitter at that fact knowing that there were guys that weren't as as them that made it up even if it was just a few days and they just never did. We only have a little bit over a minute. Left one has been the reaction. What reaction have you gotten over the. Hbo's real sports story on you. I've had a lot of people. Send me facebook. Linked in messages tweets all sorts of stuff. i've had a few relatives of player contact me which is actually led to a few new players being tracked down that i've gotten in touch with. We're actually work. I'm working on getting attention for one of the former players dot whose son reached out to me after the initial real sports episode aired. So i think that's the biggest Thing that's happened so far but yeah just a lot of good outreach. people. I'm asking about the degray league getting different players around the country to come in and talk at schools and organizations Overall just like a lot more awareness to the streets players and and to what's going on with the living players cam. I wanna thank you. Not only for what you're doing but bringing into to the forefront so people can understand and can appreciate this particular part of not only baseball history sports history as well. I know there's going to be a movie that's gonna come out. I can hardly wait to see it. But again i want to congratulate you for the great job that you've been doing and thanks for sharing the memories and your thoughts about the negro leagues with us. Take care and keep up the good work. Thank you on fan perrin with us and again you may have seen him on that piece by. Hbo's real sports about the negro leagues as he.

"I mean could throw a million miles an hour, but how often did the throw end up up the third-base line and strength, you know, this is Jamie j. His real strength was run prevention. He could cover as much ground in center field as any outfielder center fielder I've ever seen. It's been way and that includes Fred Lynn. That includes any black one, and a mookie, whoever the Red Sox have had in that, I've never seen a player cover as much territory, as J D J. And when he left look, he wasn't going to, you know, put the lights off. On fire with his Bat, but he, I wondered how the Red Sox were going to replace him defensively and they haven't missed a beat exactly. And, you know, I think a lot of that is just how good Renfro spending a field. And we know right field and finalize, maybe as a center fielder, exactly may be equally as important in sent as the center field. But yeah, because his defense is so good. I think it's Justified, allow to allow, Alex Cora to play them against right-handed pitching because he's number still, aren't that good? He said and 2:40 with a 677 o p s against right-handed pitching. So that's a well below-average, LPS against right-handed pitching and they keep playing them every day and I understand they think he's their best option and he helped me, I still think you can make the argument that he should probably not be playing as often as long as against right-handed pitching but they found a nice little left. Right situation in the lineup where he protects Devers, if they want to bring in a left, a left-hander to face never as well. You know, wage, Be bad, a rule. Guess what? You're going to Face Hunter renfroe next and he's one of the best of the game against lefties. So I understand it more than I thought I would. I think there's something to be said for the consistency in the Outfield and the consistency defensively to put the same line about it every night. I think that's a bigger factor in Alex, Cora's run prevention, philosophy in, in the Outfield than it is down, right? Left match up at the plate. I really do. Yeah, I spent let me just make this quick Point especially when you have a picture and staff that gives up a a lot of fly balls and be still lights up here. Their pitching staff has one picture under four in e r, a and that's Nathan. Eovaldi, it's 367. You have Garrett Richards. 96, Nick, pivetta at 4. Eddie, Arad is at 583 and Martin Perez at 4:09,.

"The route that they were going to go this time. But what has happened to answer your question is it actually has worked out that they wage. The best version of these guys. Martinez-perez Garrett, Richards, Nick pivetta, those sort of guide, Nathan, eovaldi going guy. They haven't got the best version as we sit here is Eduardo Rodriguez, but I'm not overly concerned about him. So I think that's where it begins and ends. And, you know, they built a pretty interesting team around them and then you have the foundation, guys, the bogarted em in Martinez, which is utterly important. But you know, I I want you to go back to, you know, people ask about, you know, we have fans in the stands now and we have an interest in the office team. Remember back in 2013, you went along for that ride with us. Yep. And in people forget that, it took a long time for people to buy into that team because the Bruins were, you were on the Bruins, beat the Bruins were red-hot, right? Everyone was about the Bruins and the Cup Final. Yep, nearly Cup finals. And then believe it or not song. You had the Aaron Hernandez trial which sucked the air out of everything at the time and the Red Sox get off to this could start. But before, like it was praying. I think authors the people bought in. I think, what this is done is that as we sit here as they finally allows fans in the stands, people came back and said, okay, you know, we can get a walk around this team and by the way, the other teams are going against, we're not really overly scared about. So I mean, all I know it covered a lot in that question, but, you know, is a lot to come down to do that. You know, you know what, you know what best podcasts are Rob. Let me guess. I mean, Phil you again. Okay. Thank you. My opinion. Best podcasts are when you can eavesdrop in on a conversation. So if somebody goes off on a tangent 456 minutes, yeah, the conversation, right? It's not an interview not should never be interviewed by birth. Play. Here's a quick aside. Yeah. Plus over your left shoulder. Yeah. Right. The two copies still in existence chasing signed off. So I do have a question about this. All right. And I look at this, what went into the artwork on the cob, I hated the artwork. I hated. I'm not a fan of this because it's clearly. It's a, it's a real image. That's a place Soriano. Whoever that is leaping in the air lesson tracks. I mean, I think I knew you back then, right? 2003, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I was a little.

"Once you made the decision that you couldn't afford a roll a dice, bookkeeping you thought you were going to lose them for free agency and then you see some of them. Where was he made for? You know, he traded Brandon Workman and he Hembree at the deadline last year and both those guys have done absolutely nothing since they left and he got Nick pivetta off Connor C bolt is a prospect. The righty Prospect of preventa has been probably their their best pitcher so far this year. Biggest surprise? I mean it's about, yeah, tremendous surprise because this game it under Jeep for years in Philadelphia and he was the quintessential guy, maybe just needed a change of scenery and he's really brought into the Red Sox brought brought into their pitching philosophy and you know it looks like a great trade in the funny thing is now they have work went back and their minor league system after the the Cubs released him. So now now maybe even get work revash, he traded off. You know, basically this trade was was a huge home run. No matter what happens from here and some of the movie, you know, you got Garrett Richards, this offseason. He had a rocky start. His first floor start, he's been dead. On ever since they see why they made that move. Kiki Hernandez. Sign him as a free agent. You kind of see what the energy. He brings on a daily basis. Hunter Renfrow, offensive and inconsistent employers with 50 fences right there. I mean, he's yeah. Well, he, he was filling huge shoes defensively for jbj and, you know, I had a chance here in Cincinnati to see some of the national wage action jbj. Just came through Cincinnati over the weekend and he can still track the ball better than any center fielder I've ever seen. So Renfro to be able to come into those shoes in Boston and, and play the way he has defensively. He's just been a huge boost. Yeah. And, you know, tracks right field or Fenway is different to offer. You need a, you know somebody who's a center fielder caliber to cover all that ground. He's done a great job, not just with the range but his arm is just impressive. I didn't know he had that good of an arm. So you know, that was another thing. That's you paid, 3 million dollars for this guy. So he's he stood Pine Bloom did some bargain shopping and you know it's it's paid dividends already even marching Perez the Box rotation you know a lot of people thought they were going to pick up his six point. I think was a 6.75 million dollar option at the end of the year, they declined that option then re-signed him for for milk. Got about a 3 and 1/2 years right now. So he's just made some shrewd moves here and he's just kind of you know this isn't as he put it in the offseason, this isn't a go-for-broke here for the Red Sox. This is a year to sort of rebuild the foundation adds depth both to the minor league system. A little bit. If you can try to compete at the major league level at the same time and they've done that. Do I think this team is going to win the World Series? You know, I don't think so but they're going to be competitive which is all you can really ask for especially after last year the bats have to stay hottie. And, I mean, as good as they have been and, you know, they're right at the top of the Major Leagues with. I believe after Sunday's actions, 65, or Runs how about this stat? And, you know, I love the work that the Red Sox PR does in compiling these. And this props out to Justin long big, Justin long way off the Red Sox are out, homering their opponents, 63 to 34 + 29. That's the largest difference in MLB..
