Red Sox on the Brink of Collapse? Dodgers’ Shocking Trade and Uggla’s Wild Ride Revealed!
As the May calendar winds down, the Boston Red Sox find themselves trudging through a tough patch, sitting at a disappointing 27-31 record. What kicked off as a hopeful campaign for 2025 is now slipping into a frustrating mess past the season’s early stages. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman dig into Boston’s shaky start, dissecting the flaws in roster building and why Alex Cora, the manager, doesn’t carry the full blame for their struggles. The looming question: Can the Sox claw back from this rough start? With the first showdown against the fierce New York Yankees right around the corner, the outlook isn’t exactly sunny with Boston dropped to 4th place in the AL East. Meanwhile, out west, the Los Angeles Dodgers shake up their pitching lineup, trading for reliever Alexis Diaz from the Cincinnati Reds— a move driven by necessity amid injuries and a nod to Diaz’s past All-Star caliber, despite recent decline. Wrapping up the episode, the hosts peel back the layers on bullpen phone intrigues and cap off the week with a fresh take on “The Good, The Bad & The Uggla,” spotlighting pitching injuries, a new MLB partnership with the AUSL, and an intriguing baserunning experiment from the Miami Marlins’ minor league affiliates. This episode packs a punch for anyone seriously invested in the 2025 Major League Baseball landscape. LEARN MORE
