This season hasn’t gone the way it should’ve gone for the Boston Red Sox. They’ve had an up and down year and never really moved on from their World Series run a year ago. Teams seem to have the Sox number this year and knew how to beat them.
The New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays did a lot better against the Sox this year than last and with a month left in the season, the Sox playoff chances are slim. There isn’t much margin for error with this team and they have a big homestand this week with three games against the Minnesota Twins and four against the Yankees.
