We are only two days away from the final month of the season, which is bananas. It seems like just yesterday we were talking about Blake Swihart’s incredible start to spring training. The Red Sox have rolled through this season, though they have hit a bit of a rough patch of late. We shouldn’t make excuses for the (relatively) poor play and there are multiple factors at hand, but part of the problem appears to be fatigue. Simply put, a lot of these guys just seem gassed.
The good news: Help is on the way.
