Boston Red Sox on path for failure or success in postseason

Not winning a Worlds Series after setting the team record for wins will just make 2018 another addition to Boston Red Sox teams that have failed. The previous franchise record holder for wins – the 1912 Red Sox – won it all. The 1946 team ran away with the pennant and fell in seven games. Which team will they emulate this year?

The Red Sox have four potential opponents with the A’s, Yankees, Indians, and Astros and each is a significant challenge. Would it shock anyone if they lost to any of the four? The season records show a certain level of equality in performance against each, so expect no romp.
