Red Sox News
The Boston Red Sox have hit the skids, dropping to a dismal 2-5 record after their latest misstep against the San Diego Padres, highlighted by Aroldis Chapman’s struggle as he allowed a crucial two-out double to Fernando Tatis Jr. in the ninth inning. The offense remains an enigma, with the team’s batting average limping along, prompting discussions about the need for a more aggressive approach at the plate, as they averaged a mere 3.1 runs per game over the past week. Meanwhile, Alex Cora's decision to give Andruw Monasterio additional reps in a crowded outfield raises eyebrows, leaving fans questioning the manager's strategy. As the Red Sox grapple with these challenges, they’ll need to find some rhythm quickly to avoid getting buried in the AL East.
