The Boston Red Sox, with a record of 34-36, face a challenging playoff scenario, holding a 20.7% chance of postseason contention. They sit 9 games behind the Yankees in the AL East and are 3 games out of a Wild Card spot. Amidst this, young players like Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer are generating excitement with their recent performances, prompting discussions about the team's strategy. Manager Alex Cora is considering how best to maximize the contributions of both seasoned players and rookies against tough left-handed pitching as the team aims to improve its offensive output.
If the offense, with Rob and Romy hits these Yankees starters early, those are some nice bats off the bench. Cora could have a first half/second half of the game platoon.
Roman Anthony just collected his first hit. Marcelo Mayer had his first two homer game. Fans are excited to see the future on the bench.
