Give Pedroia some time next this season. Does Pedrioa want to do it? Seems like he wasn't afraid to pop a joke anytime or speak his mind, but hated talking to the media in general. Doesn't seem like a broadcast guy.

Doesn't seem like a broadcast guy. Doubtful. He's living in Arizona I think and he has young kids. He's more likely to get into coaching down the road than broadcasting I would think.

Apparently Merloni will be doing NESN color in addition to an expanded role with WEEI
Was watching the Winter Fest weekend coverage and they talked with Merloni. They mentioned him as the new NESN color analyst. I assumed they meant WEEI which had been announced back in December. This seems in indicate he will infact be doing NESN.

He's apparently doing 90ish games between the two. He was taking about it on Carrabis's podcast and talked about how he's putting in the homework to be able to be more knowledgeable about guys. Very excited to hear what he brings to the table.

My dream: Set up a remote studio in Pedey's house and let him be color man for maybe 40 games a year. The return of the Laser Show.

Two thumbs up for Monaco & Merloni this weekend. If this was a Spring Training camp for broadcasters, I would be going North with Monaco and Merloni as the starters with Youk coming off the bench. While I thought I would like Middlebrooks in the booth, I think he's better in the studio. And, it seems like OB can't stop talking.

I don’t get it. Didn’t you enjoy the unending discussion about TC and the cat while our awesome new closer was on the mound? A lot more interesting than Jansen in a tight 9th, right?? Aaargh! I think Middlebrook is very insightful in the booth. I can see him in an interesting duo with rising star Monaco, who also makes Youk and Merloni better.

....with rising star Monaco, who also makes Youk and Merloni better. Word. One of the underrated aspects of Monaco's skill set is that he makes his broadcasting partner better. He also knows that Luis Arraez was traded to the Marlins lmao

This spring my vote for NESN would be Monico, Youk and/or Merloni to head north. Never been a big fan of O'Brien...
