The Boston Red Sox find themselves prominently in a playoff race as we're entering mid-August. They didn't make a ton of moves at the trade deadline, but they did add a pair of pitchers in left-handed reliever Steven Matz and right-handed pitcher Dustin May.
Even with those two additions, they'll likely need arms down the stretch. You can go down the list and point out potential issues. The Sox just designated Jorge Alcala for assignment, and Jordan Hicks has struggled. Greg Weissert and Brennan Bernardino have shown fatigue (Bernardino was even sent to Triple-A). May didn't impress in his first start with the team, and Walker Buehler has been inconsistent.
