Red Sox lose the weekend series against Minnesota, but we got a glimpse of what Vaughn Grissom could provide moving forward.
Jordan and Brian recap the Red Sox weekend series with the Minnesota Twins, in which Boston rode a blowout Sunday victory to stave off a sweep.
In the series, second baseman Vaughn Grissom made his team debut while Ceddanne Rafaela and Rafael Devers each homered in the finale.
The duo also talk Xander Bogaerts vs. Nomar Garciaparra all-time in Red Sox history as well as the hot-headedness of the 2000 team before discussing the Padres' trade for perennial batting title candidate Luis Arraez.
Finally, they wrap up the show with commentary on Toronto Blue Jays starter Alek Manoah.
