The Red Sox's recent performance has been disappointing, marked by consecutive losses to the Toronto Blue Jays and the Minnesota Twins. Despite the potential for success, the team has shown a troubling trend of losing in various ways—ranging from poor defense to ineffective pitching. Notably, pitchers Garrett Whitlock and Justin Slaten, typically reliable, were involved in critical moments leading to these losses. The author expresses frustration but emphasizes a desire to focus on the positives, hinting at brighter developments ahead.
These close, razor's edge losses aren't all falling into one bucket. One night it's bad defense, another it's the starter getting shelled, the next is the bats going cold.
I'm not upset at Whitlock and Slaten? Not so much; I just feel more disappointed, like a father who catches their kid staying out past curfew.
