    2023 Red Sox report card
    Oct 3 2023

    The show starts with some quick thoughtss on the passing of Tim Wakefield. Wake deserves his own episode. I have an idea in mind that will take a bit of time to put toghter, but keep an eye out. Hats off to NESN for the job they did honoring Wake while live on the air. I also lose my mind over a particular social media interaction... Then I give a full report card on the 2023 Red Sox, grading every player to appear this season. This sets the stage for the upcoming offseason preview episode with my plan to fix this team.

    Beverage of the week Tullamore DEW - An outstanding table whiskey that is smooth enough to enjoy neat. A 375ml bottle is under $20.

  • Somewhere we belong

    Somewhere we belong
    Sep 28 2023

    Another year, another year with a losing record, another year in last place. An awful day for Red Sox fans on the field, and off the field with Curt Schilling sharing (with or without permission) that Tim Wakefield is battling brain cancer, while Tim's wife Stacy has been battling pancreatic cancer.... Also discussed is where the Red Sox GM search is at and if it will be much of a search at all. If you are a Red Sox fan than needs a reason to smile today. Boston Fans Bid Kid Adieu and Ted Williams hitting .406 in 1941.

  • Bloom Out!

    Bloom Out!
    Sep 15 2023

    The day we weren’t sure would ever come has arrived. As critical as I’ve been of the job Chaim Bloom has done as CBO of the Red Sox, this doesn’t feel like a day to celebrate. It really is another organizational failure.

    I break down the Bloom tenure, where he went wrong, and where ownership left him out to dry. Following that is a conversation with Cousin Adam.

    The 2023 Red Sox have finally died. It might have taken longer than I thought, but it happened… For the first time we have a guest on the show! My cousin Adam joins Fenway on Fire to discuss going to Mookie’s return game to Fenway, the 2023 season and the direction of the team.

  • Midway point

    Midway point
    Jul 14 2023

    The midway point was a couple weeks ago to be pedantic. Anyway, the all star break is a great time to asses the first half and look ahead. I also break down Red Sox All Star snubs and the improvement of the Red Sox system.

  • Yankees Suck!

    Yankees Suck!
    Jun 20 2023
    No, they like really do. As much as I enjoyed that sweep over the Yankees, that series was as much about them as it was the Red Sox. For the Sox the story is their young rotation coming together. With Houck suffering that facial fracture, they need to wrap the other four guys in bubble wrap… This week’s Beverage of the Week is Sierra Nevada Summerfest.

    I tried to warn you people
    Jun 9 2023
    Back from sabbatical! A month ago this team was flying! Now, not so much. I take a micro-view of the club and talk about the June 8 game against Cleveland where Matt Dermody started and Corey Kluber was left to die. Then I take a macro view of the club. Hint, it’s not good.

    The Sox are hot! I feel like I should be happier about it. I explain why. I also take a look at how the Red Sox have gone on this heater, who the key contributors have been, and will it continue. More critically, does this run vailidate the moves and the vision of Chaim Bloom? Listen to find out!
