These guys won't stop talking.

And you can pretty much do it in perpetuity.

Yep.

Our final hour with Felger,

0:18.7

Maz here on an agenda-free Friday,

0:20.5

gender-free Friday brought you by Catch's Law.etchers-law, they specialize in helping those who have been injured, not only from a one-time incident, but from a lifetime of hard work and labor. Does this sound like you? Visit Ketcherslaw.com. Our presenting sponsor remains the Draft King's Sportsbook here on 985, the sports hub, and the simulcast is Supercuts,

real smart here, where we beam on NBC Sports, Boston, across New England and the country. I cut you off there, McCarthy, at the end of the last tower. What are we going to say? Well, I think, you know, the point that you've made is how does this situation get to this point? It's just a player advancing. you're asking a player to go from third to first.

0:53.7

Like in the end, it's minor.

0:55.6

And I think the-

0:56.2

In the end, I think it's unprecedented.

0:57.7

Correct. Like an entire long-term relationship explodes on DH, third base, first base. I've seen it explode all the time over contracts and money and a lifetime of distrust. Asking you to move positions is I think, I know this has ever happened. I'm sorry. No, it's a great point. And I look back at the Ortiz stuff. And there were bumps along the way.

No. Oh, and just as an aside, too, how'd you like the timing there? Oh, nice jinks, by the way. They have their best weekend in a while.

2:03.0

They sweep the Yankees.

2:02.0

They really do have like weekend in a while.

2:03.0

They sweet the Yankees.

2:06.2

They really do have, like, wind in their sales for the first time that you can believe in.

2:13.1
