NESN Red Sox analyst and former infielder Lou Merloni was a guest on Glenn Clark Radio Monday.

Among the topics he discussed were:
-What he made of the offseason for the Red Sox, particularly losing Alex Bregman but bringing in Ranger Suárez
-How the Red Sox and Orioles shape up against the Yankees and Blue Jays (and even the Rays) in the AL East
-Thoughts on the Orioles not bringing in an ace and what they’re getting in Chris Bassitt (who he saw Sunday)
-The impression Kyle Bradish left on Red Sox hitters last year as he and Trevor Rogers try to stabilize the top of the Orioles’ rotation
-Pete Alonso’s impact on an Orioles lineup needing to get the best from younger players
