The Boston Red Sox sit in 3rd place in the American League East division with a record of 52-44. 9.5 games behind the first-place Yankees, and three games out of the final Wild Card spot, currently held by the Cleveland Indians.
Being completely honest, this season has been a disappointment but, that’s not to say things can’t change. However, if Boston is going to pull this off and be taken seriously as a threat to travel deep into October, they need to quickly figure out who and what they are.
This Red Sox team was one that was selected by many experts to make a return trip to the World Series in 2019, but the club has yet to show anything to prove that theory to potentially be true.
