The guys hook back up after a brief hiatus for the first podcast of 2012, discussing transactions since the last episode, their projections for Will Middlebrooks and Xander Bogaerts, and some audio from New Stars for Young Stars.

In a happy coincidence, Mike, Mellen, Hatfield and Ian T. had a chat on what turned out to be a busy day. Among the topics the guys discussed were the terms of the new CBA, the Red Sox front office promotions and departures, the holes that need to be filled in the Boston lineup, and other offseason notes.

Boston's season may be over, but the prospecting is still good, as Mellen talks with Mike and Hatfield about his trip to Instructs, which wrapped up this morning. The guys also discuss the Arizona Fall League and Baseball World Cup in this shorter edition of the podcast.

The season flew by and the guys get together to put a bow on it.  Topics discussed include: is Ranaudo worth the hype, which 2011 pick has the most potential going forward, and where does Xander Bogaerts stack up with other previous Sox prospects.

The guys get together to discuss the Sox haul after the signing deadline.
