Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 54: The Return Of Pat's Picks Oct 13, 2022

Show notes

We're a week into the offseason and we're talking about how each member of the podcast has dealt with having no Red Sox baseball to watch. Jared vows to not beat the Xander negotiations into the ground every week, but to only bring it up when we have a new piece of news. Well this week we have some news. Apparently John Henry sat down with Xander briefly after the season ended to make it known that Red Sox ownerships wants to keep him in Boston. We break down what this means and what the next negotiation steps could be moving forward. We also talk about how Scott Boras might approach the situation and how much involvement Chaim Bloom might actually have in the final decision. Now, the moment everyone's waiting for... the return of Pat's Picks. Pat is back with his famous segment and this week it's the top five museums in the world! If we determine that Pat plagiarized his list, he has to donate $10K to a charity of our choosing! We're also planning a podcast-wide quintuple date where we're visiting a haunted house during the World Series! See you next week, enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 53: Thank You Eck Oct 06, 2022

Show notes

The 2022 Boston Red Sox season has come to an end. Thank you to all the 162 guys/girls who stuck it out with us this year. We appreciate all of you and we can’t wait to run it back in 2023. We have a full crew tonight to breakdown the end of the season. Jared is hearing rumors that people within the organization are optimistic about a Xander return. Pat is guaranteeing that he reaches free agency due to his representation. Speaking of Pat, he and Tyler have not interacted since the infamous watch party and we get some insight from Pat’s perspective of Tyler’s huge night. Tonight was Dennis Eckersley’s last night in the booth and boy was it emotional. From his unfiltered takes to his famous “Eckisms,” it’s safe to say that Eck became a legend in Boston as a Red Sox broadcaster and we can’t thank him enough for his years at NESN. Eck, you will be missed. We’re closing out the pod with a quick 20 on laundry. We’re down to one episode a week through the offseason so we’ll see you next week! Enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 52: Who Cares? (Feat. Will Middlebrooks) Oct 03, 2022

Show notes

We’re back and yes, we’re still watching Red Sox games. The Red Sox got swept by the Blue Jays but who cares? If you want to hear about that series you can skip to the third hour of this podcast. Today we have Will Middlebrooks on the pod to talk about his time in the booth, learning from Eck, teaching Wacha his best pitch, the 2013 Championship team, and endless stories from his time as a player. It goes without saying that we’d all like to see more of Will next year both in the booth and as a guest on the Name Redacted Pod. If there was ever an episode to make you forget about the current state of the Red Sox and reminisce on better times, it’s this one. Enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 51: Jared In The Booth Sep 30, 2022

Show notes

Jared made his NESN booth debut on Tuesday night which felt like it was a long time coming. He takes us through his whole experience including getting a FaceTime from David Ortiz while he was on the field and then catching up with him in his suite before the appearance. Between throwing out the first pitch and being in the broadcast booth he's had some major bucket list moments checked off this year. We talk about how comfortable Will Middlebrooks seems in the booth and speculate on whether this could be a long-term gig for him. Trevor Story was quoted saying he promises to be better next year and we're taking a look back at how his start in Boston has shaped how fans look at him. J.D. Martinez and Triston Casas are battling for ketchup and who won't believe who it ends up going to (with the help of Coley Mick and Matt Barnes). Tyler points out that Triston Casas sounded very comfortable in a recent interview and talks about how he see's Casas being a guy here for a long time. Jared also remembers having a dream about Kaleb Ort not traveling to Toronto. Enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 50: Tyler Got Drunk Sep 26, 2022

Show notes

Tyler got obliterated on Friday night but shockingly that's not where we're starting this podcast. First of all, how the fuck does Pat Light not show up for this episode? Second of all, how the fuck does Pete not show up for the watch party? We're uncovering the reasoning behind both before we dive into Tyler's performance at the Cask. In case you didn't check Twitter this weekend, Tyler's big night lived up to the hype and Pat successfully got him the drunkest he's ever been. We had videos of him grabbing and screaming at Jared, grabbing and screaming at Pete, and grabbing and screaming at pretty much anyone he could get his hands on. It's Sunday night at midnight and he still hasn't completely gotten his voice back. Safe to say it was an all-time night for Tyler. Thanks for everyone who came out to the party and we'll hopefully have more of those to come next year along with live shows. In the world of the Red Sox there wasn't much to talk about this weekend. The Red Sox got swept and put us out of our misery with a short game Sunday night. Bello looked good again, Casas only hits home runs and only off the Yankees, and Judge didn't hit his 61st home run off a Red Sox pitcher so we pretty much got the series win. We also talk about Pivetta's continued struggles against AL East teams, Eovaldi's less-than-stellar rehab start in Worcester, and the over/under on how many OnlyFans girls Pete Abe super follows on Twitter. Enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 49: Taking Questions Sep 22, 2022

Show notes

It’s a throwback to 2015 Section 10 as Jared and Pete are taking questions from listeners. But first, Jared talks about waking up and immediately going in on Babe Ruth. Let’s just say the old folks weren’t happy. Jared also talks about his new NESN show “Like A Pro” dropping today and his time on the pregame show with Brock Holt. Jared and Pete then dive into some questions about how they started their careers, old section 10 stories, most underrated Red Sox players, superpowers, and more. Garrett Whitlock’s season is officially over after the Red Sox announced he’s having hip surgery. Shoutout Tom Caron for being a NESN legend for as long as we can remember. We’ll see you Friday night at the Cask where Tyler is going to get the drunkest he’s ever been!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 48: Kevin Plawecki Sep 19, 2022

Show notes

Kevin Plawecki was designated for assignment by the Red Sox on Friday. He joins the podcast to not only give his thoughts on the decision, but to recount his career in Boston as a whole. From being the personal catcher for Eovaldi and Wacha, to creating a rallying cry for the 2021 Red Sox with Dancing On My Own, Plawecki has been a pillar in the clubhouse for the last three years and his teammates made it well-known that his presence will be missed. We talk to him about his reaction to getting DFA’d, his teammates’ support, his favorite memories in Boston, and a whole lot more. The Red Sox also won a series against the Royals so we're giving out some ketchup to maybe the most deserving KKSMVP of the year. Jared and Tyler are talking rotation for next year, the pressure on Chaim Bloom over the offseason, Jared needing a 162 girl who hates going outside, and more. Enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 47: Judge Loves Fenway Sep 15, 2022

Show notes

Everyone’s on the show tonight which completely takes Jared by surprise. Jared and Tyler might move in with Pete in Waltham because of the commute to the Sports Hub. The Yankees broadcast is laughing at us as the Red Sox go viral AGAIN for playing like a Little League team. Jared has a feeling that Xander wants to stay with the Red Sox but the front office is going to have to make him feel the same way, which starts by signing Devers. We play the Aaron Judge audio where he talks about how great it is to play at Fenway and how awesome the fanbase is. We also compare the way he’s handling/talking about free agency to the way Xander is going about it. Pat points out that Fenway Sports Group is focused on expanding which means lucrative, long-term contracts could be a risk business-wise. He also saw Abraham Almonte in center field tonight and thought “who the fuck is that?” The watch party at Cask N’ Flagon is one week away and Pat talks about how drunk he’s going to get Tyler. Jared also explains the reasoning behind his new profile pic. Enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 46: The 2023 Ark Sep 12, 2022

Show notes

We kick off the pod with a quick 15 on dinosaurs before we introduce the 2023 Boston Red Sox Ark. We’re going name by name down the Red Sox roster and deciding who gets an invite on the 2023 Ark and who doesn’t. We call up our pal Coley to help us figure out the Ark list. We decide that the major overhaul this offseason is going to have to be the rotation and Tyler poses a question on whether people think the Red Sox are still trying to make Garrett Whitlock a starter. Coley floats hypotheticals in a possible Chris Sale trade. A report about the Phillies having interest in Xander Bogaerts this offseason made its way around the news and we’re deciding if we need to take it seriously. Jared and Tyler talk about doing a daily four-hour Red Sox radio show. The Red Sox also won the series so we’re dousing someone in ketchup. Enjoy!

Jared Carrabis Podcast Episode 45: Red Sox Extend Kiké Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

The Red Sox signed Kiké Hernandez to a one-year deal and we finally are seeing some direction from the Red Sox front office. The Red Sox playoff chances are now somewhere in the 0.2%-0.4% range which pretty much puts a cap on the season. Although they were swept by the Rays, we talk about how we didn’t really feel anything from these losses and the attention has shifted to our 2023 roster. Kiké dropped an interesting quote from Chaim Bloom claiming that he promised next year’s team will be “way better.” We discuss if we’re confident in that statement and what kind of offseason the Red Sox would need to have in order to make that true. We collectively agree that the guy holding Triston Casas’ first home run ball hostage is the worst dude on the planet. This leads to a discussion about when it is okay to keep milestone baseballs and when it isn’t. Also, Bob went 3-4 in Worcester tonight and Jared’s going fishing with Garrett Whitlock on Monday. Enjoy!
