Fireside Chats #57: Where we dip into the Mad Dog for a little relief

Written on August 25th, 2009 by Tim Daloisio50570 Commentshttp://firebrandal.com/2009/08/25/fireside-chats-57-where-we-dip-into-the-mad-dog-for-a-little-relief.htmlFireside+Chats+%2357%3A+Where+we+dip+into+the+Mad+Dog+for+a+little+relief2009-08-26+01%3A14%3A45Tim+Daloisio

Sorry for the lack of shows recently, a vacation followed by a week with a fever eerily similar to Jason Varitek’s batting average knocked me out of commission. But we are back and ready for the stretch run! We talk playoff chances, hurdles in the Red Sox way of making it there, key players that need to step up on the way home and more. And we welcome, for the first time, a very special guest long known for his ability to scream into a “Mike” and talk sports….”Mad Dog” (our very own version at least).

All that and more on Episode #57 of Fireside Chats on MVN!

The Red Sox traded for Billy Wagner today for two players to be named later, reports ESPN.

Is he the same pitcher as he was in 2007 or have injuries taken their toll…

Remy Returns, Clay Stumbles, Sox Win – All is Forgiven

Red Sox vs. Rangers

The Sox take the first game of the series against the White Sox, 12-8, on the strength of a 6 run third inning. Clay Buchholz struggled with his command, being chased in the fifth inning.

And Firebrand would like to welcome Jerry Remy back to the booth. It’s a little belated, but hey, someone had to do it…
