Welcome back to Episode #290 of The Red Seat Podcast. This week, Jake Devereaux and Bob Osgood were joined by Matt McCarthy of 98.5 The Sports Hub to discuss the Red Sox and their efforts prior to Tuesday’s MLB Trade Deadline. Please give Matt a follow @MattMcCarthy985 on Twitter.
We opened the show talking about the (almost) non-existent trade deadline efforts from Chaim Bloom and the Red Sox. Almost as confusing as the lack of moves in either direction were the comments made by Bloom in the hour that followed the deadline, pointing to “the odds” of making the playoffs and referring to the Red Sox as “underdogs” while also talking about how much Chaim claimed to like this year’s team.
