We wanted four wins, we got three. Mid. Average. Pedestrian. The Royals? A cake walk. Garrett Crochet? Good. Dustin May? New. Jordan Hicks? Come on.

We knew we had to beat the Royals, you just needed to keep the lid on Booby Witt and the Pasquatch. We aren't quite sure why they bought at the deadline, but hey, not our ball club.

Then, the Padres. Almost embarrassing. Plenty of classic Red Sox mistakes. Failure to capitalize on opportunities. Opportunities to WIN. But, is Buehler heading in the right direction? One can only hope.

Also, amazing what the Yankees facial hair policy reversal has done to their relievers. Be real funny if they...reversed it.
