Slowly but surely, the Red Sox are starting to turn things around. Things still aren’t perfect, but they are looking more like the team they were always expected to be and have won five of their last seven games. The rotation is starting to come together, with some issues here and there but mostly solid performances the last couple turns. The bullpen has some issues that need to be worked out and some guys who should probably be rotated out, but largely that unit has been solid enough. The lineup is coming around as well, with Mookie Betts and Andrew Benintendi providing a presence at the top while Christian Vázquez and Michael Chavis add some much-needed length at the bottom.
Jackie Bradley Jr. can’t stop hitting into the shift
