The worst is over. The five-week skid is behind them. The Red Sox are repaired and raring for the run toward October.
Well, I think so, anyway.
Probably.
Maybe.
Most likely, I guess?
All right, I’m convincing no one with that approach, so let’s put it another way: The Red Sox have won three in a row and four of five in advance of their compelling three-game series at Yankee Stadium beginning Tuesday.
It looks like they’re back. Previous hemming and hawing aside, I do believe they are. We just need to see them do it against a better team than the one they just walloped.
