Welcome back to another episode of the Over the Monster Podcast, your spot to get a weekly check in on the current state of the Red Sox. As always, Matt and Bryan are here to take you through today’s episode.
With the trade deadline just a couple days away at this point, that was clearly the major topic for this week’s show. We started off this one talking about how possible it is that the team actually does nothing, and what that would mean for their standing in the American League East. After that, we move onto more specific discussions around the deadline, including whether or not the Red Sox really need to push for a starting pitcher, our favorite targets for first base and in the bullpen, and what to make of the rumors that the Red Sox called about Starling Marte.
