Regression has not been particularly kind to the 2019 Boston Red Sox. After the 2018 team won a franchise-best 108 games and secured a World Series title, this year’s squad has labored in third place for quite some time and although there is still time to make a run, it doesn’t look like much will change in the next month or so. According to FanGraphs, there is only a 9.8 percent chance that they will play in the postseason.
Despite hurtling back to earth, the franchise is still in a pretty good spot, especially when it comes to the future of the infield.
