Fortunately 8 teams in the AL are making the playoffs, and the Sox will be one of them, so they have four weeks to get enough wins, get healthier, and try to make a run if they can win 2 out of 3, Sep 29-Oct 1.
Feel free to pile on me later, but I’m surprised there are so many that think they’ll stand pat. I think they have a Lynn deal they’re waiting on, and if it doesn’t happen, a less exciting pitcher will be added that won’t mortgage the future.
