The Red Sox scouted Cole Hamels again (and watched him bomb)
At 42-49, losers of four-of-five games, this Red Sox team that was once creeping towards the realm of buyers has now taken a clear step in the other direction. It would, in most people's estimations, take something close to a miracle for the Red Sox to invest in this team at the trade deadline and be justified in doing so.
Which makes it a little odd that the Red Sox are one of four teams still in on Hamels, and even sent scouts to his Sunday start against Miami, per Ken Rosenthal.
