OK, so things haven't gone well this year so far. It hasn't been the season we'd like it to be. But all is not lost, friends (or maybe it is, I don't really know)! Point is, it's OTM Podcast time and we're doing what we always do. Rain or shine, dark or light, paper or plastic, we're talking Red Sox baseball. You could set your watch by it.

This week we're fortunate to be joined by one of my favorite guests, the excellent Chad Finn of Touching All The Bases and The Boston Globe Red Sox Podcast. Chad, Marc and yours truly cover the following Red Sox-related topics for your listening enjoyment and edificational purposes:

  • Kevin Youkilis v. Will Middlebrooks: Who would win in a back alley plastic spork fight?
  • The bullpen as a collection of old car parts in the garage: bad analogy or worst analogy?
  • Alfredo Aceves: Throwing flames: What will the Fire Marshall say about this?
  • Clayton Mortensen: Is 200 strikeouts from the bullpen unrealistic? How about 197?

All in all it's a not entirely depressing edition of the Over The Monster Podcast!!!

You can subscribe to and/or download the podcast at iTunes and/or listen and/or download at our hosting site, Podomatic. Email us with your stuff OTMPodcast@gmail.com. Many thanks to Chad for staying up late with us again. Thanks as always, to Kahoots, the official band of the OTM Podcast, and of course thanks to you for listening.
