at their current pace, the Sox would finish the season 67-95. that is worse than the disastrous Bobby Valentine season of 2012. and the second worst in the last 94 years -only topped by the 62-100 season of 1965.

By winning %, it's the 15th worst Sox season of all time. 2020 was also worse by %. 

8 of the 10 worst seasons were from 1922-1932 (before Grove, Cronin, Foxx and Doerr were brought in).

When you have a lineup that keeps losing, just keep rolling it out there.

So Mickey Gasper is the new #1 catcher. ?   Narvaez and Wong better be checking their option status.  What are the pitchers saying ?     

Only 40 ABs and a .732 OPS, 2 doubles out of 13 hits and only 2 RBIs.  But that is what will get you an extended trial period on the 2026 Red Sox.

Gasper isn't a great fielder, but Tracey is going to go with his WOO guys when he can. He clearly can't trust some of the previously established MLB guys. I'd rather stick it out with Narvaez and have Mickey play DH or 2B. Sogard can go to 3B.

What are Narvaez and Wong doing to make their cases?
