traveled traveled traveled traveled traveled traveled because the president of the Kyle Harrison for young clubs back or what are what I mean are you really going to bail the Red Sox because I think there's still a lot of potential for this season. It's a long long long season. So I just think it's a little disappointing that you're talking so negatively when you last week you were Hey Josh. Okay we got that point. He'll may have some you like Connelly early. Yeah, why look great. Yeah, good. Oh he did but Kyle Harrison. I see. So Connelly early can have one start and you're like, Yeah, look, right. It's all about that. Kyle Harrison looks good for the Brewers after you give him give him away. He's a very young fan club. Oh, I see. I'm talking to an eight year old. But go ahead. No, pretty much. Yeah, I do. I knew these calls were going to come this week. I think I said to you you were a lover. Now you're a hater. Yeah, I said to you somewhere in the middle last week. I will admit that it's a little contrived. But if they're going to tell me that this is the way they're going to win, meaning Red Sox ownership and management, fine. I'll buy in that I was being semi facetious about it. I thought I did say that a braille Anthony and Durant all look good during the world baseball classic and if they play well, they'll be fine. They're not playing well other than to break you. So look, I'm all I'm telling you is this, I think the product they've given you in the first five games sucks. Okay, the product sucks. So if you want to tell me you think they're going to turn it around, great. I would tell you the holes in that team that we're pairing during the off season, they put a crap ton of pressure on the young guys. And if those guys produce, they'll be fine. If they don't, they're going to suck and it's going to be on Breslow and probably going to fall on Quora. But really it's Breslow and above it's Breslow. It's really a Breslow and above his off season work has sucked so far. But if this is what they they don't want to pay superstar players to be in the middle of the order when they have one of the six highest pay rolls in the game, well, then they're not going to compete with the five teams that are above them. Listen, I took a hard to look at him at the end of spring training. I said, I don't know. I wanted to bet the under. I didn't have the guts to do it. I didn't feel that was 87 and a half. Yeah, 87 and a half. I didn't bet the under. But again, I did not feel good about the roster. I don't feel good about the roster and I don't feel good about how it was built and why these guys are here and the reasons they're here. Durans another one, by the way, who's given them nothing not to jump rails on Danny and wall them. Thanks for hanging on Danny. What do you got? Hey guys, that's stuff on ABS was interesting. I didn't know about the margin of error. But number one, Rangers, Suarez needs to lose some weight and get up getting shape. I thought he looked like Eric Gagne when I first saw him last night. Please lose some weight. Thanks. So I think you have a right to be concerned about Rangers Suarez at his age on what's probably his last contract and how he's looked from the beginning of spring training. He has not been ready to go. He had a bad spring. He got wracked in the WBC and he got torched last night. He's not in shape. He's not ready. I'm going to say shape game shape. He might have put on a few on top of it, but that would concern me. It should concern you. He signs his last big contract and this is how he looks. And he hasn't looked right from the start. That wasn't that second to last game for Venezuela that he started on the Saturday night. That's why I was like, Oh boy, how old is he to is he like 32 somewhere in that area? You're putting air quotes around that. Well, yeah. Maybe Murray. The only reason I bring that up is they say they don't want to sign bad deals. They won't sign pictures in their 30s. He'll be 31 in August. Okay, then they lose Bregman and the first thing they do is run out and sign a 31 year old pitcher to a $130 million contract or whatever the number was. So it's like, what do you guys just react to every bad thing by doing something stupider? Yes. Yeah, that seems to be the plan. It was react. That wasn't their first their first choice. They wanted a bat and they didn't want to pay the bill play pay the freight for the guys that were available. So they get to them say, Okay, well, we'll do this instead. And that is how they've built the team. Frankly, pretty much everywhere. I had a good, good email from Jason and Beverly is Ranger Swar is a problem. Let's see. He sucked in spring training. He sucks so badly in the WBC that he was getting yanked out of games before he could build up his pitch count. And he sucked last night. To be fair, we all like the move when it happened. And this is true. I'll stop here and say it's true. We liked it. Although I do again, we may have gotten confused with the other pitcher at the top of that Philly rotation, Sanchez, and we may have confused the two. Although I do remember swar is pitching in the playoffs last year and was good. So or not the playoffs in a late season game against the Brewers. I may have said playoffs earlier. It was a late season game either way. We like this war is signing when it happened. There's no question about it. Okay, that said, Jason writes, Why is he here? Especially since a soft tossing lefty is the opposite of what Craig Breslow looks for typically. Well, two reasons. The obvious is that they whiffed on Alex Bregman made a passing offer to Pete Alonso. And we're so far apart with Kyle Schwarber and Dylan C. So that they didn't even make offers. The second reason and say it with me, Felger, the contract. Remember how back loaded the Sanchez, excuse me, the Suarez contract is in 2026 Suarez only has a $7 million salary and a $3 million signing bonus in 2027. The salaries 15 million. Then it's 3035 35 and a $35 million mutual option with the $10 million buyout. Why would the Red Sox structure or contract like this? After 2027 Trevor story and Yoshida come off the books. It's all about John Henry's cash flow. Speaking of cash, the Red Sox cash, not CBT their cash payroll is 213 million. In 2025, it was 229. Jason Beverly. So we had this discussion. Remember, we had this and I said their cash payroll, I think is actually lower. So again, and this gets fudged. This is another thing that gets fudged because of the freaking fake mother. The CBT is a cap number. It's not a real dollar out. Right. So in the case of Roman Anthony, for example, his average salary on that contract counts against the luxury tax. But this year is based salary is like 5 million or something. I'm just spitting that off the top of my head. So he might count for 15 or 16. But they're only actually paying them five. So why is Ranger Suarez here? That's why you should that's the question I ask and why my confidence is shaken in the signing. And I look at that across the roster and say, Why is that guy here? And why is that guy here? And your number two starter, Sonny Gray is here because the St. Louis Cardinals agreed to pay a big portion of his salary 20 million. He wouldn't be here otherwise. They're paying 20 million in that deal. The Cardinals are how many FNNL Central guys you got on this team? Too many Durbin, Gray, Oviedo down the line. And so yeah, I'm not I that losing three out of four to begin the year is not necessarily what I was concerned heading into the year. Did you say contraris? He's from the center William contraris stereo. He's another one. Montessario in for Durbin another NL central player. It's what you've built an NL central team down in here. Nick Carver on the ABS. Go ahead Don. Yeah I I really give you a big thumbs up on your descriptive. Um uh, uh, the way you that you took apart the A Bs and really, uh, opened my eyes as eyes as to how bad it is and how much I don't want robots taken over the game when I go to the ballpark with my popcorn and my hot dog and my venom. I want my venom directed right at the empire not I don't want to split it between the empire and a robot. Alright, I just don't think it improves the game. I don't don't. Thanks for the call. I mean, I mean, to me it doesn't. I didn't think balls and strikes were a problem to begin with. Do you think to the average consumer it improves the entertainment value? They like it. Yeah, I think it's good for baseball right now. It's clear it's popping in the stadium and fans seem to like it. They do. Which is the real reason they probably did it along with shaming the empire. Which baseball it doesn't have a problem doing. Here's Jake in the suburbs. Yes, Jake. Yeah, so I hate the ABS because I think it's empowering hitters to think that they know every detail the strikes shown to stand there with their bat on their shoulders and act arrogantly calling out the balls and strikes themselves. And I also just hate it because I grew up loving Pedro Martinez and frankly, I think Pedro Martinez would be walking everybody in this situation of this system because of the way that he picked the corners. He nibbled around the edges and he got batters to extend the zone. And I think that that's part of the art of baseball and the human process of baseball. And I think it's completely lost. Yeah, just nipping the front corner of the plate is no longer a strike. Correct. According to ABS. That's right. They don't measure it at the front of the plate. They don't measure it over the entirety of the Pentagon. They measure it in the eight and a half inches into the plate, the middle of the plate. It has to cross the plate over that plane, not the front corner or the back edge of it. And so yeah, maybe you have taken away pictures with that real, real pinpoint control and great movement. Yeah, because it takes both. But yeah, Maddox is another one. I mean, there were certain guys who you will look at and say they used to carve that thing up. They probably can't do it anymore, not as much anyway. And they did it because measuring the whole plate wasn't working with the Hawkeye technology didn't work with the machine. The machine couldn't handle it. The machine couldn't handle the entire plate and the way it was shaped. And the machine also still can't accurately predict a pitch inside one sixth of an inch. So the machine is as limited and is guessing just like the humans are. But again, I ask why, why'd we turn it over to the machine? Because the machine doesn't talk back because it's better. That's it is true. It doesn't machines not an able back to your calls after this. Now more of Felger and Madd. Now on the sports. Two went on the infield to one hopper to L2 Bay and a fitting with the night he had. He makes the last play. A long night in Houston and a rough starts for the Red Sox. They fall here eight to one now one and three on the season. And looking for the on switch on that offense says Houston takes game number one. Here in the Jacob Park. Your four games into it obviously offensively not coming out the way you want to swing it. But you are four games is the game of baseball. You need that one game. You got to get guys out here a little more relaxed at the play. Going to be a little more patient looking for balls middle middle. It's early. You don't like getting out like this. Kev, that's for sure. But you got to grind out tomorrow face a very good picture. Get some fresh batting gloves, pull your pants up, change something up and then go for it. Final call there on Nessan, including the ever useless Kevin Millar at the end there. No new batting gloves will fix everything grief. Back to calls on everything. Jason and Providence on the ABS. Yes, Jason. So let me preface this by saying I'm a moron, but whoever designed the ABS is also a moron because most of these games are at night where you've already done your little shrinking of the day. So not only is the square that your little strike zone skewed two inches in the wrong direction, you also have a margin for error. So you're asking a moron umpire to guess where this manufactured square is and you got people like Buckner who doesn't know his ass from his elbow and now you got all kinds of miscommunication, missed calls. I mean, they're setting them up for failure. They made the product worse by thinking they made it better. But you raised an interesting point. They were so, you know, so, and put air quotes, detail oriented that they insisted on measuring these guys between 10 a.m. and noon because studies have shown the body shrinks over the course of the day by millimeters, if anything, but they were so fine and so dialed. We're all going to measure these guys at the exact same time. Yet at the end of the day, your system has a margin of error of one sixth of an inch and at least a dozen heading into last night pitches that were reversed on challenge were really 50-50 balls to the computer too. In other words, within the margin of error. So the computer was guessing just as much as a human would be guessing. But yet you had to measure everyone at 10 a.m. because you're that finely dialed. Give me a break. Yeah. So the only thing I'll say is that it actually works in favor of a faster game, that the measurements they took create a bigger strike zone, not a smaller one. So good. That's what it should be. But at the end of the day, it's really no more accurate than the young. It really isn't. It's just on the video board and you can see it. You think it's real. JP in the car on the Red Sox. Hi, JP. Hey, when we're talking about roster construction and the Red Sox look like the NL central, what it really boils down to is there is a fourth bird team in Major League Baseball because the Boston Red Sox are... Okay. Get your own show. You ever thought on that, Mass, before I go on? Yeah. I just think, look, I keep saying this and it's the payroll has definitely come down in recent years, at least in terms of actual cash and stuff like that. I still think the far bigger issue is they don't want to play star, they don't want to pay star players. Right. That list of pitchers was how much did you total up, Mass? Again. Oh, the ones who... Like, Walker Bueller, Paxton... Help me with... Patrick Sandoval was on that list. Sandoval. Why keep missing that name? Walker Bueller, whatever. Lucas Gialeto, you add all those guys up. It came into about 110 million. They'd rather birdshot it over five or six guys equaling 110, then give one guy 110 because they deemed that to be a higher risk. Right. And I would tell you that it really ends up coming out probably about the same. Absolutely. That when you sign all those bums, most of them suck. Sandoval got 28 million and he hasn't pitched for them yet. Gialeto got 38 for what amounted to, let's call it, four-fifths of a season, five-sixth of a season, something like that. So they way overpaid him for what they got out of him. And when you add all that up, wouldn't you rather just have Max Fried for five out of the eight years or six out of the eight years and take your chances with him? An actual guy? Yeah. So they're so afraid of the dead money. They don't realize they're killing their money anyway with some of these stupid short-term deals. Yes, sir. How many plays should we come up with on the roster currently that actually played on an L central team? Well, we were just spent around five or six of them because I think it is six. So Contreras, Cardinals. Correct. Isaiah kind of filet-fuge. You name him? No. Pirates. Oviado Pirates. Chapman, Cubs Pirates. Monastereo Brewers. Durbin Brewers. Is that six? That's six. Yep. How many in a roster? 26? 25. Yeah, when Chapman last came to them, he was from the Pirates. Right. So is that 20, some odd 23% of their roster is from the NL central? It really is. They really are like a mid-market suck team now. Yep, they are. Congratulations. Brian in the car. Go ahead, Brian. Hey, so like I'm not that I think I personally think the Rangers War, I feel, was not exactly what you guys are saying. It was just a, you know, a car with your pants around your ankle. But I just kind of find it even more fitting that this is the first year that you go out and sign this guy. And what is he known for? He's known for just basically trying to catch the edge of the front of the plate, you know, and this is the year that we're implementing this rule. It's like, do you think that they even play that as a factor of making that signing? No. It's an interesting point. I mean, he's a guy that changes speeds and tries to live on the edges. But they didn't factor it in. No, no. I mean, it's probably like, I don't know, I wonder if the Phillies didn't letting him go. My guess is with the Phillies at the end of the day, it had more to do with the fact that he was aging and losing some velocity. And for whatever reason, the Red Sox now we're drawn to that. Nick in the car. Go ahead, Nick. All of a sudden. Hey, guys. I didn't honestly, like this first week of baseball, we should really thank Craig Breslow. You know, I thought we'd be talking about games and winning, but instead we're talking about IBS or ABS, whatever the hell it is. And I honestly don't see how we're going to get any better, how they're going to get any better this year, unless they bring in some new players. I don't think the roster got better. I think anything it got deeper. And it might be better if some of your younger players improve, then that's how you get better. But I don't think on paper, they improve the roster. And I knew that I should have known that. I didn't know that. When they asked Sam Kennedy about, do you think you got any better or something? I can't remember that question answer. Remember we had it was the Shaughnessy question or are you better than you were last year when they had Bregman and Debra? And he said, Well, you know, you don't really get in the projections. We're not really about that. You don't get into the projections because the projections showed your wind total going down. If the projections in your computer show that you were better and you projected a more wind, you would have been happy to say, Yes, we feel we improved the roster and it'll show in the wind loss record because that's what your models would have shown. Even their models showed that they weren't better than last year. I mean, think of it. If they had just held their water, they could have Bregman, Devers and Roman Anthony in the middle of their lineup. That's what it could be. They could have all three of those guys. If they had just kept Devers, paid Bregman and brought Anthony up. That's all they had to do. But they had to reinvent the FN wheel because the Red Sox always have to show you how smart they are. And now they don't have two of them and Anthony's hitting lead off. Well, it's not just how smart they are. They don't want to pay those contracts. Ma'a, that's more what it is. So brutal. Dean and Shrewsbury on a side topic. Go ahead, Dean. Maury Stottemeyer belongs in the Hall of Fame along with the carmelo Anthony and Raj on Rondo. He went to fix all star games and he was a five time. Yeah, Rondo. How about Doc Rivers? Dean? You know, I, you know, I, I, I, I, Doc Rivers, me and the basketball Hall of Fame, I put on the same interest level as Yukon and your bracket. I don't care. But how about Doc Rivers? How about Doc Rivers? Doc Rivers belongs there. He's eighth all times and wins and he's got a ring, but he, he sort of walked into it that these players loved him so much that he was able to coach so long that he got all these wins. Jimmy Stewart, you think Doc Rivers is a Hall of Fame coach? F no. 27 years as a coach, one win, two finals appearances, 27 bleeping years. He took over your Bucksfelger and put them right in the crapper. I mean, my God, 27 years as a coach, one title and he under achieved there. He got to the finals twice. He should have won, he should have won at least two with the Celtics here, but then he leaves through the back door after they redesigned the freaking office for him here and he goes to the Clippers Clippers were a turnkey system. Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, Deandre Jordan, turnkey. They'll be in the, they'll be in the Western finals. How many three one leads that he blow with the Clippers? How many? There's three, doesn't it? Too many to remember, right? Two or three, 27 years, one title. This guy's a Hall of Famer. Go f yourself. So, so you're a no. It's close. I can is Dean serious about Rondo. If that's a whole, this is why Rondo is a Hall of Fame player. This is why no one should care about the basketball Hall of Fame. Holy crap. If that's a Hall of Famer, then what's the point of having the thing? Jimmy, how many points a game did Rondo average for his career? Oh, I bet it was under 10. 9.8. I was right. You're gonna put that guy in the Hall of Fame. Good job to me. 10 9.8. My god. He shot 61% from the free throw. Yeah, but Tony, if you talk to us peers, he's one of the smartest players to ever play. Final segment. Do this on your own time. Final thoughts. I was asked. Call. I asked about Doc. I don't care about where John Rodgers update and then we're back with one final segment. Don't go anywhere. Can't wait. We'll back to the phones with a five o'clock hour. Mads unless you have a fresh thought for us. God knows. Alvarez one for one a single. I liked this lineup more last year when he wasn't in it. It's a monster. High fly ball deep down the right field line. That one way into the corner and she is way out of here. And a two run shot to make it three nothing. And the three one from the left hander. High drive at the left center field while struck. Sadon turning around to look and it is gone. And that will make it four to nothing Houston. Bryce Matthews with his first home run after Masataki Ushida hit for Durbin. Swing it a drive here by Al Tube. He tags this one. That one gone. The Astros with their third home run tonight. Socks that one to left field. That's up there and that is gone into the Crawford boxes. His second home run tonight. Home run number four on the night for the Astros. They weren't hitting home runs until tonight. Mas put that together. Back to your calls before we get to some emails. Tom and Quincy go ahead Tommy. Long guys. Hey I have a legitimate question. When it comes to you at Alvarez right. How much pain, trauma, damage does one player have to inflict before you decide you don't pitch to the guy anymore? Every time he plays the Red Sox it's a bombs away. They just he just sits back and peas off regardless what pitches in the game. What inning it is. How many outs they continue to put it right down the pipe to this guy who launches it literally 450 feet every single time he's up to bat. So Tom we were going over this a little while ago because I said I bet he does hit absolute nukes. I bet on him to home against the Red Sox. I say for this reason he kills them. So we looked up the numbers. He's 372 against the Red Sox. Overall in his career. He's 488 at Fenway Park. So he annihilates the Red Sox. Tom couldn't be more right. And so what does Suarez do? He leaves it off speed pitch fat right over the middle of the plate at Alvarez freaking Jackson into the third deck of wherever it landed. And that thing said the tail to tape on that was 394 feet. That felt generous. Meeting in your favor. Yeah, it was way farther than that. Tim and Franklin on the ABS. Yes, Tim. Hey guys for all the fault that ABS has and it certainly does. It is one of God's most benevolent tragedies that we never got to see. Angel Hernandez behind the plate with the ABS system. If we thought CB Buckner was bad. He was out of been robbing Peter to pay Paul and taking out challenges from the next day with Angel behind the plate. Or Joe West of blood bath. Joe West wasn't that bad of an umpire. He was just an epic a hole. Yeah, a hole is right. But so just challenging him once would have gotten the Oh yeah, you would have got beat red. Joe and new Hampshire on it. Go ahead, Joe. Hi guys. Um, Felgar, I'm older than you, but I have really taken to the APS and kind of my thought just maybe you guys have thought about it. But the guys have shrink in a quarter of an inch or they're missing by a six of an inch. The ABS might miss by a little bit, but the first few games I've watched. I mean, somebody's umps are missing by two whole balls. So you know, I'm liking it because I think it's it's that kind of call that we're catching where the ones that are close. I really don't care about, you know, Yeah, it's correcting the real bad ones. That's for sure. It's also correcting the ones that aren't so bad that might actually be right. So I don't know why that doesn't bother you. No, the ones on the margins. Again, it's those do bother me. Don't you think that if it's within the margin of error, they should let the call stand? Yeah, it should actually go to the human on that one. Right. If they admit that their their system is flawed is not good within one sixth of an inch. Anything within one sixth of an inch, the call should probably stand. Right. If the difference is, you know, in their case, all the all I've seen is a tenth of an inch based on what they show. But if it's point one, then the call stands. It's really so one six. You said is point one point one six seven point within one point one six seven stands. Correct. It should. Yeah. Jerry and Rhode Island. Go ahead, Jerry. Hey guys, how are you today? Hey, just curious. The ABS though, if they if they get get the call wrong, it's a ball. Forget it. Right. It's a strike. Wouldn't that cut cut it down quite a bit? I don't think you got it quite right. What? What? Jerry, you should watch it and then get back to us with the thought. Okay. You can challenge balls or strikes and reverse them or hear. Let's do some emails on that. Although I would prefer to be the way that he's. It's the Coleman Electric email of the day. Hey, dear Felga, I really hate you and I think mass is a boom. It's electric. The Coleman Electric email of the day. It's electric. Send yours to Felga at 98 five. The sports of dot com. Email that they brought you by Coleman Electric, a bunch of really good electricians helping homeowners like you when you need an electrician called Coleman Electric. It's electric. McTakie KU electric KU HL. M. A. N. Is how you spell that. Search them up. Give them a call. Best electricians going here in town. I got quite a few emails on that unusual call we got where there was this noise in the background where we wondered if yeah, that. Yeah, that was it. That if we were being violated in some way, if he was getting after it or something, subject line sound from the colleges. Now, Mike and Jimmy, was that a dog panting? No, I don't think that was a dog. So to speak. Oh, maybe actually it could be a dog. I don't know. Subject line Felga and Matt. No way Felga and Maz fetish. What the heck was up with that call right before the 3pm hour felt so dirty. I needed a shower. I did feel violated. And then there was that unusual. You could have been filing out of prison. I mean, that does that. Yeah. Weird sound from caller Tegan writes in Felga, I can't be more certain than the disturbing sound heard in the background of that caller's take was a dog panting like it just ran and caught the zoomies. But my best guess another one for the dog was a little thing at the end like a little yelp there or something. That sounded like a gag. Yeah, I did. Did he had something going on? Another email on the big board, which comes two weeks from yesterday. T minus under two weeks until the big board, the highly anticipated and strangely unusually popular big board segment. You know what I yeah, I think I'm going to try to get a drone in here with a camera. James writes in Hey guys, every spring I watch you guys throwing footballs with markers in them at the draft board and every spring I see the balls landing several feet away from the magazine. And you might making some sort of approximation of landing area and it's not very accurate to say the least. So I would like to offer an alternative that would not only be incredibly accurate, it would also be a whole lot of fun and would supply many a good laugh. Two words. Blow gun is the answer. If you're interested in trying it out, I would be glad to order one up and bring it to the studio for a test run. No, sir. No, James, you are not allowed to come here with a blow gun or anything. No, out. Nope. Look it up. Nope. I'm not we're not even going to pass that one along. No, we're not going to bring any sort of toy or otherwise firearms to the program. Oh, this looks fun. Yeah, that's echo. He says, yeah, yeah, my previous one was lost or discarded on a previous move. On the other hand, if you find this idea absurd, I will still always be a faithful listener to the show just one who doesn't care for your current draft format all the best chance. So listen, it's up to you guys to hit the F in magazine is what it really needs to be. So hit the F in magazine. We've tried different things. We had a slingshot. We had tomatoes. Was it tomatoes? Are you being to launch? Yeah. No, yeah. Did you worry? Yeah, I tried the slingshot. Yeah. Yeah. That was a disaster. So the last several years it's been little nerve footballs with the pen in the nose of it. Yes, the nerve footballs are from our sponsor, the Peterson School. So I think that's where we're going to stay. You guys just got to learn how to throw. No, no, no, you guys plural, you guys. Final word, you're a mess with this thing as bad as I am. Please, I'm way more accurate than you. I'm way within the point one six seven final word come join next. It's for it's vulgar here now on Velger and Mads. We're recapping this four hour show in four minutes, which leads to the question doesn't really need to be four hours long. No final word brought to you by town fair tire. If you're looking for the best deal on tires, there's only one place to go. Town fair tire, the best prices and great free services. Nobody beats town fair tire. No buddy. So that phone call that was mentioned on the email segment. If you didn't hear it earlier, well, let's replay that for you, the people Kevin and Charleston. Go ahead, Kevin. What do you got? Hey guys, I've been listening to you guys for 25 years, 25 years and I love your show. And I know how you guys operate. So please just let me finish my thought before you hang up on me, please. I have a very specific question for mass. My question is mass. What the hell are you doing trying to start a fire? Yeah, seriously, filing your nails. What are you doing? I'm not trying to beat a dead horse, Mads, but go ahead. I'm not trying to be a dead horse. I'm not trying to be a dead horse here, but mads. My question to you is as someone who listens to your baseball show every night for the past 25 years, what number do you think John Henry will take to spend money on the team? So I read a report he made. Hey, Kevin, I have to let you go. I've been already especially since I wonder if we're being sexted right there. You hear that? Oh, yeah, I know Latin clear. Yeah. Do you think he was he's got an old Felgren mass thing going on there? I don't know. Maybe he's definitely buttering his bread there using us for motivation. I think he was working on some like a wood project. Now, again, I think it was two sticks together trying to get a fire going in the woods. I don't know if you could hear that in your car or whatever. Like in our headsets, it was pretty yeah, there it is. That's what it sounded like loud and clear. It could be dog. No way. That wasn't a dog. No, sir. No way. So what do you think that it was? I don't know what it was, but it wasn't a dog. A dog is like not a big dog after a run. This was like the something was rubbing there was friction there. That's friction. What do you think? I have no clue. Not a dog. Mass, we're gonna come up on the baseball hour. Well, we have a we have an abbreviated show tonight. Gargle at the end was creepy. Go ahead. Only a 30 minute program tonight on the baseball hour because we have the Bruins and the Dallas stars right here on 98 five pregame starts at 6 30. So Caleb Durbin benched. I think he has become the face of the Red Sox problems in a lot of ways and not just on the field off the field as well. Caleb Durbin, unfortunately for him, has become the face of what is wrong with the Boston Red Sox. We'll start there. I just saw a headline that stood out to me because you know the World Cup is going to be in the States this year. We're going to have some games down Gillette. How does Italy miss out on the World Cup? Aren't they a powerhouse? They failed to qualify. Yeah, they just lost to Bosnia and they're not making the World Cup for the third straight time to they have they've won the title four times at last one at 20 years ago. I remember that. No six. The Azari is a yeah international power. They were because they got Greg Weiser play. What happened to you guys? Man, people must be out of their minds. Seriously, I can't. I'm not going to speak for them. I'm ashamed. Seriously, like that is this. Yeah, this. That's like, um, no, that would be the equivalent of a team USA basketball or something like that. Something like that or Brazil not making the World Cup. Right. I was going to say, right. USA basketball. Third straight out of the apparently so. Yeah. So, uh, they miss the last two World Cups. Yeah. No, all of a sudden they suck. Wow. Anyway, time for coaching again. Disgratia. Oh, disgrace. Thank you for tuning in. Here comes Maz and the baseball hour. We're back at it tomorrow at two o'clock. We started to Alex Barth is going to join us for a couple of hours. So we'll do some football talks, some prospect talk as we get closer to the Felgra, Maz Big Board. And of course, the NFL draft that's with Barthee tomorrow. Otherwise, here comes mass talk to you tomorrow. See you.
