The other team that's been red hot,
and this just doesn't stop.
I mean, they won two out of three from the A's,
and you thought the Red Sox would go to LA and hang in.
Not only hang in,
but they're on the verge of sweeping the Dodgers.
How about that?
They went on Friday, they won last night.
And, you know, you would assume that, I mean,
I gotta tell you,
the team that's had the most rumors surrounding them
in the last 72 hours, Tom, it's Boston.
And they haven't come up with anything yet,
but I would assume that the Red Sox
are gonna be grabbing somebody here
before the deadline too.
I mean, it's kind of annoying to me,
honestly, Tom, with the amount of rumors
they have going on.
Feels like they have the biggest rumor, am I wrong?
It feels like they have the biggest rumor mill
of anybody going right now.
Just rumor mill, but news in general for the Red Sox,
not just the last five games,
it's the last month or so for the Red Sox,
which they've been super hot.
We know that Curtis Meade has a fractured wrist.
He's gonna be out six to eight weeks.
You know, they trade early to Nats for Meade.
First plate appearance against the Athletics,
we got a fractured wrist.
So to see them now want to make another move
after they've continued to win does not surprise me.
Going up against the Dodgers,
taking two out of three against the Dodgers on the road
is always an impressive thing.
They actually have the Sunday night game,
which is to be determined at this point.
But again, they're in the why not us category.
They have made some good moves.
You know, the team isn't, I'm gonna say,
super fundamentally solid.
They do have some flaws in them,
but they are one or two moves away
from being another serious contender in the AL.
Not in order to win the AL, but to make a deeper-ish run.
