Looked back to May 1, almost 2 full months, and the Sox have won 4 games in a row 4 times since then but never 5 or more . While it would be great to win 4 of 5 consistently , that hasn't happened. So they find themselves 2 down in the standings , being all 4 games in the loss column. The home schedule surplus needs to be taken advantage of.

"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
