COMMENTARY
After a weekend like that one, staring at a week like this one, it’s hard not to feel this enjoyable Red Sox ride has begun its final approach to its logical conclusion.
Perhaps, remembering our winter angst about the team’s apparent priorities, that’s for the best.
In the immediate, though, this feeling isn’t new. When Boston was swept by the Dodgers after the All-Star break, they led in all three games. They tread water against the Yankees and Houston. Won a couple in Baltimore. Have looked in the conversation against just about everyone.
