Good morning and welcome back to another edition of “The Red Seat” podcast. If you’ve stuck with this team during a frustrating month of August, one thing you’ve undoubtedly noticed is frustrating defense.

This is frustrating to us as fans, and has in many cases directly resulted in losing games.
On this episode of the show Keaton and I dive into what FanGraphs Def says about the Red Sox as well as what StatCast’s Outs Above Average tells us.
