There’s really nothing positive that can be said about the Red Sox right now, who were thoroughly embarrassed on Friday night to drop to 2-7 over their first nine games. Nine games. You will undoubtedly hear many times between now and first pitch on Saturday that’s only been nine games, and that’s true. That’s 5.5 percent of an MLB season, which is nothing! It’s also not much solace in the moment as you watch a wildly talented team drop game after game after game. Yes, they should most definitely turn things around and probably sooner than later, but in the meantime that only makes it that much more frustrating.
It’s been top-to-bottom failure for the Red Sox to start 2019
