You've been talking about this on the station nonstop this week with all your reports on all the day parts.

But what jumped out to me about what you said there is...

is how unwilling it seems like the Red Sox are to get uncomfortable when making a deal.

And I am so tired of hearing that, regardless of whoever is pulling the strings in the front office.

Because it used to be something that we would attribute to the GM.

and say, like, oh, well, he's not cut out for this or he doesn't understand the sandbox that he's playing in.

But I thought that Breslow, at least in the offseason, had shown us last year that he was willing to, quote, overpay a little bit or get a little uncomfortable.

And I think that's why, on top of all the rumors and the expectations that some people set going into this week, that's why there's a lot of frustration out there.

I thought they were a baseball organization.

Matt Jones is in the front office.

And he's taking headshots.

And you'll be the interest kings that everyone accuses you of being.

I mean, we hope so.

So you brought up something, a phrase there that stuck out to me, which is 2026 championship run.

Right.

And I think that's interesting in relation to a report that...

Sean McAdam of Mass Life had today in which he said a prominent and I'm not going to read through who people sources may or may not be.

I'm not going to ask you to do that because it's quite rude.

But Sean is very well sourced up.

He says a prominent agent believes that the Red Sox are reluctant to commit money.
