About this episode

Red Soxs Controversial Trade: Tibbs Shines, May Flounders

The Boston Red Sox made headlines in June 2025 by trading star player Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants, receiving Jordan Hicks, Kyle Harrison, James Tibbs III, and Jose Bello in return. The Sox quickly traded Tibbs to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Dustin May, who underperformed and is now with the Cardinals. Hicks was sent to the Chicago White Sox, and Harrison to the Milwaukee Brewers for Caleb Durbin. Fans are upset about the trade, as Tibbs is now excelling with the Dodgers, while May is struggling with the Cardinals. The Red Sox are currently 2-6 and face the San Diego Padres today at 1:35 PM, with Ranger Suarez and Walker Buehler on the mound.

It's April 5th. Welcome in. This is Boston Red Sox News today, where team coverage meets AI. Back in June of 2025, the Boston Red Sox made waves by shipping superstar Rafael Devers and his massive $250 million contract to the San Francisco Giants. In return, they grab pictures Jordan Hicks and Kyle Harrison plus Hot Prospect James Tiv's III and another prospect named Jose Bello. Since then, the Sox flipped most of that hole. They sent tips to the Los Angeles Dodgers for a partial season of Dustin May, who bombed out and hid free agency. They also dealt Hicks with 8 million bucks to the Chicago White Sox and swapped Harrison to the Milwaukee Brewers for Infielder Caleb Durbin. Fans are fuming over the salary dump of their top star, leaving the team with scraps that barely moved the needle. Durbin adds some spark, but it's clear the Red Sox got outplayed in these deals, especially unloading tibs so quick.

Now tibs is lighting it up, smashing three home runs in one night for the Dodgers Triple A squad. Meanwhile, May win 1 in 4 with the 5.40 ERA in 6 starts for Boston last year and he's struggling hard at 15.9. Five ERA with the Cardinals now, tibs ranks as the top 10 guy in LA stacked farm system. The Sox sit at 2 and 6 early, but they can snag this series from the San Diego Padres today at 1.35 p.m. at Fenway. Ranger Suarez takes the mound against his old Philly's buddy Walker Bueller, now with San Diego, could be the spark they need to turn this mess around.
