About this episode

The episode discusses the recent improvements in the Red Sox's performance, focusing on key players and ongoing roster challenges.

Gordo, Sammy, and Pat keep seeing things get better for the Red Sox with a second straight series win in St. Louis. After getting shut down by Dustin May, how great was it to see Willson Contreras help turn the vibes around against his former team? Then, with Ranger Suarez and Brayan Bello pitching their best games of the season, there is clear vision of how the Sox can rack up wins on the strength of the rotation. And, the outfield logjam and roster construction remain an issue with talent like Masataka Yoshida riding the bench while trying to get guys like Roman Anthony and Jarren Duran going.
