Well, the first game, played over two days, didn’t really go the Red Sox way. How about that strike zone?
The Red Sox are sending James Paxton to the mound for what could be the decisive start of his Sox career. Coming off a rough outing last time out, Paxton is likely boosting his trade value, proving he’s part of the team for the rest of 2023, or slumping his way to be forgotten. Paxton, Bello, Crawford….Whitlock, Houck, Sale? There’s definitely something there. If he shuts down the Mets we might just get to see it.
