Abreu’s clutch hitting has been evident since the season began. On Opening Day in Texas, he tied the game 2-2 with a solo homer in the top of the fifth and then gave Boston a 5-2 lead in the ninth inning with a three-run homer.

If the Red Sox truly have ambitions of playing baseball in October, they need more reliability to protect their increasingly overworked bullpen.

Brooks Lee hit a two-run single off Jordan Hicks in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Minnesota Twins a 5-4 victory over the Boston Red Sox after a 90-minute rain delay

Jordan Hicks was ready to pitch the ninth, but had to wait out wind and rain. When the game resumed 90 minutes later, he, predictably, wasn't sharp.

So far, they’re hanging in, despite the Rafael Devers trade, the Kristian Campbell demotion, the early Trevor Story struggles or similar scuffling from Walker Buehler.

The MLB trade deadline is just days away. The Red Sox are trying to get better, but their manager says they're better positioned than they were the last few deadlines.
