WEEI has shortened its rotation for its Red Sox radio broadcast team this season, and it should be a winning one.
The station and parent company Entercom Communications announced Friday that longtime play-by-play broadcaster Joe Castiglione will be joined by three primary broadcasters this season: Will Flemming, Sean McDonough, and Lou Merloni.
All three were part of the much larger rotating cast the station used last season, when the likes of Chris Berman, Mario Impemba, and Josh Lewin were among those that called games alongside Castiglione.
Flemming, Merloni, and particularly McDonough, the former television voice of the Red Sox who called approximately 30 games last year, were high among the best in last year’s crew, which generally worked well in a given game but left much to desire in terms of series-to-series consistency on the broadcast.
