Fireside Chats #71: Where Tim holds a presser explaining his recent absence from the show
Everyone has been wondering where Tim's been and why there's been no Fireside Chats as pitchers and catchers reported to Fort Myers. We now have answers. He's been chumming it up in rehab with his pal Tiger Woods. But unlike Tiger, Tim's ready to get back to work! Seriously though, with the Red Sox heading back to Fort Myers, its time to take a look at the team the Red Sox are about to put on the field and decide what we expect out of the local nine in 2010. Starting this week, Paul and Tim will look, first at the infield then outfield and so forth, at Fangraphs' compilation of expert and community projections and give an assessment of their accuracy as well as will those numbers be good enough for this team to compete for a championship in 2010. First up: Kevin Youkilis, Dustin Pedroia, Marco Scutaro, and Adrian Beltre. All that and more on this episode of Fireside Chats.
