Stupid, my God.

Presented by Draft King Sportsbook on 985, The Sports Hub.

Final hour, Felgrin, Mass.

Just want to circle back to anything that we hit on earlier.

In an hour of Bruins, Red Sox, the Marcellar mayor.

I think the Maz dropped on me yesterday continues to fascinate me.

How he might be a trade chip.

It's actually falling down these prospect boards.

Not that you would know it for the folks that cover the team around here, but apparently he has.

Yeah, I actually have something on that. Go ahead. Why are you so hung up on this when you hate prospects in other sports? Well, I don't mean. I hate the NFL draft. Okay. I don't hate prospects. Yeah, but I mean, the way you talk about the NFL draft prospects, I hate the NFL draft.

I think it's a dork fest. But that MLB draft, too, that's certainly no exact science. And if people are already saying this kid might suck, then why hang on to him? Just because they drafted him so high, it's the highest draft pick they ever had? I hate tanking for the draft. I hate the emphasis that people put into the draft. but after it's over, Murray, and you've got a young player,

I'm into the young player and being patient with a good young player. I am. So, like, once it's done, it's done. Okay, but I guess my question is, because I'm sort of with Murray on this, like, but I recognize we do a talk show. Yeah. So when you look at like Marcel O'Meyer, you say it's the number four pick, what if you don't think he's that good? What if internally you don't think he's that good? What if someone looks at him and says, in other words, like your point was, you know, under Bloom, all they did was hype the crap out of this guy. What if Bloom was the one making the hype and he sucks. He was the fourth overall pick. Should have been number one, but he dropped you because what? Other teams didn't want to give him a signing bonus. Why did he drop? Because other teams didn't want to give him a signing bonus? Is that the only reason he dropped? I don't know. Maybe there was more than that. Was there? I don't know. Well, you're the baseball guy. You tell me. I'm just saying that there's sometimes that there are guys who are busts that you pick high in the draft. It happens. And this is, so we're going to tell it after half a season at double A ball? So there's going to take what you got, can you tell that he can play after two years of a double A ball double a ball? This is what years. This is all I'm saying. It's just it just, it was yesterday. We just did a quick Red Sox minute where Maz was talking about the landscape across major league baseball. And the number of teams that are going to be in on elite pitching, the number of teams are going to be after these free agents. And the Red Sox, even if they want to spend, are going to be behind the eight ball because the competition, the money out there is going to be heavy. And they have to outbid a lot of teams and their better path to bring back real talent, veteran talent, is to trade a guy like Anthony or a guy like mayor or a guy like Harold Fenafese. and he threw a couple names out there and in there I heard mayor mayor like Marcelo mayor we're trading Marcelo mayor already

and me says yeah there's some questions about him and maybe he's a trade chip I'm like

what so it just blew me away I'd never heard of him being discussed in that context.

Sure, I get it.

All I had heard, fourth overall pick, can't miss prospect.

We're waiting on Marcelo Mayer.

Here we go.
