As the MLB All-Star break is currently underway, there are a lot of questions going into the second half for the Red Sox, especially after a disastrous last week where the team lost two out of three against the Yankees and lost Chris Sale to a broken finger.

Mass Live Red Sox beat writer and the Co-Host of the Fenway Rundown podcast Chris Cotillo joined Massachusetts Pirates Team Insider Jake Ignaszewski to answer the biggest questions for the Red Sox going into the second half of the 2022 season. Chris gave an update on Chris Sale's recent injury (this was before his procedure news came out) and then explained what the Red Sox could do to fill his void. Then Chris explains how he believes the next week will determine if the Red Sox will be buyers or sellers at the deadline and who he thinks they'd likely trade if they were sellers.

Chris then looks at the first base situation and shares his thoughts on what the Red Sox will do at the position and what he thinks they'll do with Bobby Dalbec. Lastly, Chris shares the keys to what he thinks the Red Sox needs to do in this second half of the season in order to be successful.
