00:00Do you want to hear my plan?

00:01Sure.

00:02Is it the same plan?

00:03Okay, Nick.

00:04Why don't you put me on the clock?

00:05Red Sox not doing anything, so I'm going to help them out.

00:07They barely spent in free agency.

00:09I'm going all in.

00:10I'm signing Alex Bregman and Pete Alonzo.

00:14Bregman's going to bring leadership, big game pedigree.

00:17Alonzo's bringing pop.

00:18They're both right-handed.

00:20Bregman's playing third.

00:21Alonzo's playing first, which means, Rafi Devers, you're now a full-time DH, which is good,

00:25since you're terrible defensively.

00:27I'm also trading Tristan Kassas.

00:29He's the odd man out.

00:30He's going to Seattle.

00:31I want Gilbert.

00:32I want Kirby.

00:33I actually would settle for Luis Castillo.

00:35Whichever guy I get, I'm penciling him in with Crochet, Buehler, Houck, and Crawford.

00:41Brian Baio, you're now in the bullpen, which is where you belong, along with Garrett Whitlock.

00:45I'm signing Tanner Scott.

00:47He's closing.

00:48No to good guy or Aldous Chapman, you're setting up.

00:50Now you have a deep rotation.

00:52You have a stacked bullpen.

00:53Oh, and finally, I'm giving Jaron Duran an extra half a million, since I'm not a cheapskate.

00:57So Sam Kennedy, that's a team that can win 95 games in the division and compete for championships.

01:03Follow this plan.

01:04Make the Red Sox great again.

01:05How about that?

01:06I like the detail of giving Jaron Duran an extra $500,000.

01:09Do it.

01:10Yeah.

01:11It's a half a million bucks.

01:12Guy had an awesome year last year.

01:13You don't need to fight with him over a half a million bucks.

01:15You had Tanner Scott in there.

01:16You tucked that one in.

01:17I did.

01:18I thought that was a sneaky one by me.

01:19We're both upgrading first base.

01:20We're both trading Tristan Kassas.

01:21We're both getting a pitcher from Seattle.

01:23I think my plan is more realistic based on what they've done.

01:28No, it doesn't mean it's better.

01:29I mean, it's better, but it doesn't mean...

01:30No, because it's all trading.

01:31It's not signing guys.

01:32It's not paying money.

01:33Because Alonzo and Bregman's a lot of money, and they're going to be big-time contracts.

01:35In my scenario, you're barely even spending over there, which sounds like the Red Sox,

01:40to your point.
