Father’s Day Experience

Matt Gagnon shared his Father’s Day experience, including mowing his five-acre lawn and spending time with his kids. He discussed the Red Sox’s trade of Rafael Devers to the Giants, criticizing Devers’ attitude and performance. Devers, who was traded for Jordan Hicks and minor leaguers, was deemed a “man baby” for refusing to adapt to playing first base despite his poor fielding at third base. Gagnon expressed relief at Devers’ departure, noting the financial relief and the potential for investing in younger, more dedicated players. He also mentioned the Red Sox’s recent sweep of the Yankees.
