Red Sox Trading Connelly Early For Curtis Mead Was The Right Move

310 To Left

About
The Red Sox made a surprising move ahead of the MLB trade deadline by sending 24-year-old pitcher Connelly Early to the Nationals for 25-year-old infielder Curtis Mead. Tom Caron & J.P. Ricciardi explain why, despite Mead being injured in his Red Sox debut, the trade was still for the betterment of the team, given their surplus of pitching depth & need for more right-handed power. Plus, TC goes 1-on-1 with the voice of the Portland Sea Dogs, Emma Tiedemann, as she prepares for NESN's upcoming all-women Red Sox game broadcast on August 4th. All that & more on 310 To Left presented by your New England Ford Dealers, hosted by Tom Caron.
