Welcome back to another episode of The Over the Monster Podcast, your spot for the latest in Red Sox baseball. As is always the case, but is extra relevant today, this episode was recorded prior to Tuesday’s game against the Rays, which means we knew nothing of the loss, and more importantly we knew nothing of the Xander Bogaerts positive COVID test.
What we did know was that the Red Sox were coming off a series-opening loss in Tampa Bay but were still hanging on with solid playoff odds. We took a look at those odds as well as what FanGraphs projects the team will need to make the postseason.
