6 Red Sox hitters in tonight’s starting lineup entered the game with an OPS below .700.
The Sox could realistically benefit from offensive upgrades at 5 positions, including C, 2B, 3B, SS, & DH. I'm assuming Anthony is the long-term solution in LF (if he can get & stay healthy).
The #Phillies are 31-14 (.689) since Don Mattingly became Interim Manager.
American League average OPS is currently .717.
The #RedSox have 10 players (!) with an OPS under .700 (minimum of 50 PA):
.547 Story
.557 Durbin
.576 Narváez
.588 Mayer
.642 Gasper
.665 Yoshida
.669 Duran
.675 Anthony
.676 Monasterio
.689 IKF
Book closed on #RedSox starter Ranger Suarez. Outstanding. 6.2 shutout innings with 1 hit and 3 walks allowed. Struck out 5. Faced 24 #Mariners. Threw 94 pitches, 55 for strikes (58.5%).
As a lifelong basketball fan … really loved watching that Knicks team play. Champs in every way.
