"The Red Sox are the league leaders in dysfunction, overreaction, and scapegoating."

@Ken_Rosenthal reacts to the shocking dismissal of Alex Cora and several members of his staff...

Any chance that same front office questioned why Kyle Harrison has looked good? Weird, wonder why!

[Gordo @BOSSportsGordo]

Sox have been outscored 16-6 over two games in Minnesota. They are 0-5 against AL teams this season, and 0-7 when they give up the first run of the game. Shutout for the first time this season.

Alex Bregman lobbied for Roman Anthony to be the player added to the Team USA roster when Corbin Carroll went down, manager Mark DeRosa said:

“Bregman was there out of the gate saying Roman was the guy.”

Scoring more runs = John Henry spending more money

Run prevention = John Henry spending less money

[Joe Weil @Joe_Weil]

The most fascinating part of the Red Sox offseason pivot to run prevention (instead of power) is how it runs counter to recent trends and past championship teams.

Here's where the last 15 WS champs (plus 2004/2007 Sox teams) ranked offensively in runs, HRs, OPS, & wRC+:
