| 4/12/24 | It appeared the Red Sox had addressed their defensive problems, but they've taken a turn for the worse.

The Sox proved capable of winning games with pitching and defensive excellence on their season-opening, 7-3 West Coast swing. The defense went with it. Story suffered his injury in the fourth inning of last Friday's game in Anaheim. Source: https://www2.bostonglobe.com/2024/04/12/sports/red... |

| 4/03/24 | Red Sox's Ceddanne Rafaela Drops Great Line After Game-Saving Catch. Red Sox rookie Ceddanne Rafaela isn't going to be relied upon to carry the offense at any point in the near future, but despite his deficiencies, there's a clear reason he's with the big-league club. Rafaela has proven as much just six games into the season, making a spectacular play in Tuesday's win over the Oakland Athletics that essentially saved the game for the Red Sox. If Rafaela doesn't make that play, the best-case scenario is a tie ballgame. The worst case is a loss to the lowly A's, which is unacceptable for a team looking to outshine expectations.
