Series Preview: Los Angeles Dodgers at Boston Red Sox
Briefly

The Red Sox are preparing to face the Dodgers at home, against a team that is not at full strength and is deploying a suboptimal rotation. Emmet Sheehan is returning from Tommy John surgery and has had mixed results over his limited outings. Saturday's highlight features Kershaw, whose effectiveness has declined, compared to Crochet, who has increased his innings significantly. Both starters carry uncertainty regarding their current capabilities as they face key matchups.
"Clayton Kershaw's current performance shows a significant decline, with a strikeout rate dropping to 16.2% and an uptick in walks, indicating reduced effectiveness."
"Dustin May, returning from Tommy John surgery, has yet to complete a starter’s workload, raising questions about his stamina and effectiveness during outings."
