About this episode

The hosts discuss the Red Sox's five-game winning streak and whether it's time to emotionally invest in the team again, highlighting Jake Bennett's performance and Willson Contreras's All-Star selection.

Gordo, Sammy, and Pat can't help but feel good for the red hot Red Sox who've once again won five straight games. Is it now time to emotionally care once again or is this just a mirage? Then, Jake Bennett continues to dominate in his starts which puts another win in Craig Breslow's column. And, before getting hurt, Willson Contreras was riding high with making the All-Star team and committing to the Home Run Derby.
