The Boston Red Sox finish 87-75, third in the AL East, after a 9-2 Wild Card sweep loss to the Yankees. We analyze Sonny Gray's pitching struggles, Mickey Gasper's biceps surgery, and the urgent need for a veteran DH. Key players include Brayan Bello, Tanner Houck, and Ceddanne Rafaela.

We discuss the rotation's strength versus the bullpen's fragility, projecting 85-95 wins for 2027. Offseason moves for a left-handed DH and closer are critical for contention. The team faces challenges with injuries to Roman Anthony and Tyron Guerrero.

Hosts Melissa and Ryan break down the AL East standings, offer win projections, and predict a Division Series exit unless roster holes are fixed. Listen for insights on Payton Tolle's status and the impact of Craig Breslow's analytics philosophy.

In this episode: AL East Standings & Record Analysis · Rotation Strengths & Bullpen Weaknesses · 2027 Win Projection & Offseason Outlook.
