Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 29: Need A Spark

Jared and Pete start the show by addressing Sunday night's episode and the fact that everyone thought we were drunk. Can't a few pals get together to worship the lord every now and then without being accused of intoxication? A fake Jesus guy reached out to Jared after the show and tried to apologize for scaring him as a child. Turns out he was less of a J guy and more of a D guy. Anyways, Sox got swept. The one positive that came out of this series was that Alex Cora dunked all over Chris Cotillo in a press conference which we break down live on the pod. Besides that, not a whole lot of things went our way this week. Tyler rips into the Red Sox defense and calls out all the head-scratching mistakes that were made in the field during this series. The reality we're now facing is that the Red Sox could possibly be in last place in the AL East heading into the All-Star break. Wow. We talk about how the roster feels thin and needs help in the bullpen and at first, and how much of the blame we should be placing on Chaim Bloom. Jared points out that there were a couple chances to get a spark this series that just didn't pan out. Bello had a chance to impress in his second start but looked shaky again. Chris Sale had a fairly dominant first outing of the year but the Sox couldn't score for him. These were a couple storylines that could've ended up being moments for the Sox to rally behind but ended up being disappointing losses. We also talk about John Henry's comments and what seems like his lack of interest in the Red Sox the last few years compared to when he first bought the team. We end the show talking planes, new enemy of the pod Jameson Taillon, and how our lives would be different if the Arod to the Red Sox trade went through. Enjoy!
