00:00They've won 30 of their last 35 games, best 35-game stretch in franchise history,
00:06nine consecutive series, their longest since 1912.
00:09So we were talking a little bit about this before.
00:11We were talking about it before we even came on the air in terms of turnarounds
00:15with a Boston sports team.
00:17Said 2001 Patriots at first, but again, like there is a seismic shift
00:22in sort of the DNA of that team when Tom Brady takes over a quarterback.
00:25So I don't even think you can compare that to what we've seen with this Red Sox team.
00:28No, because, I mean, I guess Peyton Tolley.
00:31I was trying to think of guys that you see as like transformational
00:36and we're going to look back and say we didn't know Peyton Tolley was quote-unquote Peyton Tolley
00:41in the moment, what he brings to a team when he's, you know, a five-time all-star
00:45and in six or seven years from now.
00:48But yeah, Tracy is the only thing I can go back to,
00:50that we're going to find out that he is an all-time great manager who pushes the –
00:54he's not a – I was, you know, condescendingly saying he's gotten lucky.
00:58He's a AAA manager who's managing a AAA team and found success.
01:01Maybe he's just a great manager.
01:02Yeah.
01:03I don't know.
01:03It's fully possible.
01:04When I think of Red Sox teams, I mean like 2013,
01:06you can talk about the turnaround going from worst to first
01:09and moving off the Bobby Valentine year.
01:11But again, that's like lightning in a bottle and it's a fresh team too, right?
01:15We're not talking about an in-season, wow, this team looks absolutely horrific.
01:18And no, actually it turns out they're a wagon.
01:20And doesn't – they were horrific.
01:22This isn't like we didn't screw up.
01:24Like I don't think our eyes were wrong.
01:26When we were saying they were a crappy baseball team,
01:29they were a crappy baseball team.
01:31They have changed, not us.
01:32Our eyes are still working just fine.
01:34We're just acknowledging the reality of the early season and now the present.
01:37We'll see you next time.
