I still think they are a 86 win team. I'm really not sold on the current starting rotation. Eovaldi is sure to come down with an IL stint and have diminished stuff. Richards is an unknown. Long term health of ERod? Is Sale going to be productive when he comes back? Is Houck a starter or reliever? Will Pivetta revert to a AAAA guy? What could Seabold provide?
The pen should be average to slightly above average. The offense will be near the top 5. It's the starting pitching that is really difficult to project.
I think I have it down.

The Red Sox and Twins are expected to play as scheduled on Tuesday, per Dan Hayes of The Athletic.
No official announcement has been made. Monday's scheduled game was postponed as a response to the shooting death of 20-year-old Daunte Wright by police this weekend. However, Tuesday's game will be played and Monday's game is expected to be made up as part of a doubleheader on Wednesday.

St. Peter says it's too early to tell what will happen with the rest of the series.
No discussion yet of moving the Twins-Red Sox series out of Minneapolis, says Dave St. Peter.
Twins president of baseball ops Derek Falvey says he discussed decision to postpone with Alex Cora and Chaim Bloom. Falvey said the Red Sox aren't staying in downtown Minneapolis.

Reminds me of this game from the pre-COVID era that was noted as being "surreal" for having an empty stadium.
Wonder how they will manage the rest of the series.
