Matt Barnes joins the show to talk about his departure from Boston and starting his journey in Miami. He walks us through the conversation he had with Chaim Bloom once he found out he was being DFA'd and why he immediately went to Vegas after the news broke. Other topics include the highs and lows from his his 12-year tenure with the Red Sox, his feeling towards the organization after the decision, his conversations with Chaim, Cora, and other Red Sox staff, being a part of one of the greatest baseball teams of all time in 2018, the state of the team now compared to 2018, clubhouse reactions when Vázquez and JBJ left the team, and much more! At the end of the episode we're also ranking all four Red Sox World Series Championships with Matt. It was a hell of a ride with Backpacks in Boston and we think we speak for all Red Sox fans when we wish him the best of luck in Miami! Enjoy!
