Multiple sources are reporting that former Red Sox infielder (and Framingham native)
Lou Merloni will not be the lead play-by-play man on the team's radio broadcasts. These same reports state that a person has already been chosen. Former radio play-by-play man
Dave O'Brien is moving over to the NESN television booth to replace the departed
Don Orsillo. Speculation points to several possible announcers with New England ties, such as:
Dave Jageler,
Andy Freed,
Aaron Goldsmith,
Dave Flemming,
Dave Raymond,
Gary Thorne (our choice) and
Steve Berthiaume. Stay tuned—literally!
