Red Sox All-Star Break

Winners of 9 straight. 14 out of 16.  .5 game out of the wildcard. Still under .500 46-48.

Wilson Contreras. Arguably the best right handed bat in the majors says we refuses to leave Boston he loves it here.

What changed?

A couple winey snots are out of the club house. Mayer injured again, Roman Anthony has just been sent away.

Contributions from Anthony Seigler, Romy Gonzalez, Monasterio.  Triple A guys playing hard and smart contributing to the wins.

Pitching has been good most of the year.  4th in the MLB in ERA

Gray, Suarez, Tolle, Early. – dealing with some injuries, but good.

Chapman still good, mental freak Bryan Bello positioned in the bullpen

This was not their plan. Credit to the players. It’s not sustainable. Punching above their weight.

Breslow does not get this credit.  They talked those young kids up so much. And it failed. The long term contract to kids who have not earned back fired in Anthony and Campell. Enabling Mayer failed.

Breslow built a good pitching staff.

Can he win a deadline? Aug 3rd

Rode the fence the last 3 seasons.

Put Mayer and Anthony, one of the outfield log jams and young pitching on the block and bring in a impact bat for now and long term.
