The constant around the Red Sox this year has obviously been the search for differences between this year’s team and the historic 2018 roster.

We knew there would be some regression coming just by the law of averages, but it’s been much more extreme than we could have imagined. The drop-off between the two years is large enough that there are clearly a multitude of reasons for the decline. That said, to the naked eye one of the biggest differences has been the lack of offense early.
