Change Red Socks Podcast of the Week, we didn't plan it that way, we didn't plan anyway

But this is what's happening because the Red Socks fired their pitching coach, Juan Yevis

And so that is news and that gives us 10 pull to peg an episode to

And we are going to talk about this move and other Red Socks related things with Brian McPherson, the Red Socks beat writer for the Providence Journal

And I'm sure that you have followed the general reaction and the general reaction

Same with managers, and it was hard to quantify, so we try and ignore it
