"Boston mustered just eight hits in the first two games of the series. The Red Sox are tied for last in baseball with just 13 total home runs. They hold the second-lowest OPS in baseball, second only to the Mets."
"Guys are scuffling, but there just isn't enough here to be an offensive threat in this league. If nothing else, Jarren Duran tallied three hits against left-handed pitching."
"Fried entered with a 2.37 career ERA against the Red Sox and surely lowered that with eight brilliant innings and nine strikeouts."
The Red Sox are experiencing significant offensive struggles, ranking last in home runs and second-lowest in OPS. They narrowly avoided a shutout in a recent 4-1 loss to the Yankees, marking their first series loss of the season. Despite historical trends of being a top-10 OPS team since 2018, the current lineup lacks the necessary offensive threat. Jarren Duran showed promise with three hits, but overall, the team is facing a challenging start to the season.
