2026 Red Sox Thread

This is fun...but unsustainable.

Well, yeah, I don't think they'll play .900 ball for the rest of the year like they have in the last 20 games. But they might play .650 ball which will get them into the postseason. It is a wonderful affirmation about pitching quality. No Crochet, no Anthony, no hitting from the shortstop position...wow.

Fun to watch these days

Why? Pitching and defense. It wins.

The pitching is sustainable. The bats are not. Too many career Punch and Judys in the lineup

Sonny Gray now 12-1 with a 2.48 ERA. 13 in a row and 18 out of 20.

The Sox could trade Gray at the deadline for one of the best prospects in baseball. At 36 how long will Gray's winning streak last?

Or keep him, and trade one of the young lefties, Duran, and Arias for Bobby Witt.

When I'm stuck with a day
That's Gray
And lonely
I just stick out my chin
And grin
And say
Oh!
The Sonny will come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom
That tomorrow
There'll be Sonny!

Still not a deal I would have made with all the pitching they do have. Still waiting for the shoe to drop. Can't deny he has been very good but it also was a one year deal iirc with a mutual option for quite a bit. Gald he is performing for sure.

@maust @RobertWeathers
While I am happy for the players who are working their asses off that they've made this season relevant, it does take Breslow and John Henry off the hook a bit. Even if the wheels come off later this summer, they will be relevant at least until Labor Day and football season starts. That's all Henry gives a chit about.

The fact that Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer aren't with the club, and yet the team has jelled without them should be huge wakeup for everyone involved; players, coaches, staff, medical staff, all of it. The reported mixed messages being sent to players is not a good look. Meanwhile, their ace is sitting home. There's a lot of problems with this club still.

This enjoyable win streak is a bandaid.

If the Red Sox make the playoffs, is Tracy the MOY?

Can'r say what about MOY but if the Sox make the playoffs Henry is the Lucky SOB of the year and the milking will continue unabated
