Summary

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Its been a rough stretch for the Red Sox, but Gordo, Sammy, and Pat aren't freaking out about who the losses were to. Did Garrett Crochet's rough outing cause any concern while Dustin May provided some confidence? Then, Walker Buehler once again struggled and with the season nearing its end, how much longer can the Sox hope to rely on a turnaround? And, if Buehler loses his rotation spot, guys like Cooper Criswell and Kyle Harrison are waiting in the wings.

And then we're on the socials at Playtessie on Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok. I just realized I'm not at all centered. So I'm going to switch that up. All right. Here with Sammy, here with Pat. The Red Sox have lost five out of seven games. They just dropped two out of three to the Astros, dropped their second straight series, another series with a game in there that felt like the Red Sox could have won in the

1:16.3

first game for a number of reasons and didn't. So they've now lost five out of seven. To me,

1:21.8

it's annoying and it's frustrating. Like, I just, I hate losing. I do. And I'm not concerned about the team at all. Like, I genuinely feel, and we're going to talk about this about what's coming up, the schedule that's coming up, the immediate series that's coming up. I feel really, really good about where things are going. That said, I hate losing. I hate it. I hate it. Not concerned, not even a little bit. I believe in the guys just as much as I did a week ago.

1:47.3

But I'm frustrated because I watch the games every night and I want to see them win and they haven't been winning and it's frustrating to me. That's what I got.

teams. They're on the road. If you lose two out of three on the road to one of the better teams

2:11.8

in the league, Padres, Astros, it's not the end of the world. It sucks for us. Like we don't like

2:16.7

seeing it. But this is totally, totally not the type of, oh my God, what's going on. Like, now we can panic. If they lose four out of five to the Orioles and the Marlins on this upcoming homestand, all right, then we'll talk. But look, like, man, these are good teams they're playing. Like I said, not bad baseball or anything. They just lost. It happens. And I, I don't think I could possibly change any less my feeling about this Red Sox team than I have between now and our last recording. Same team. They're good. They're not great. I still expect them to make the playoffs. That's pretty much it.

2:54.6

They are, they were plus 12 run differential on the road trip. They went two and four and they were plus four. Get that out of it. The 12 to one wins or 14. The only thing I'm trying

to say there is that is agreeing with your point that they played competitive baseball against
