00:00Who are the real Red Sox, Rob?
00:01We've seen them get blown out by the White Sox and Rays.
00:03They've won these last two games.
00:05They struggle to score.
00:06They strike out a ton.
00:07They make a bunch of errors.
00:08Cora called them out.
00:09Who are the real Red Sox?
00:10You know, I am anxious to see if they go on a run here
00:15and we look back at that Cora, as you said,
00:17the Cora thing after the game the other night, Monday night,
00:22and we're like, okay, well, that was a turning point.
00:24I don't know.
00:25It's a nice narrative.
00:25We'd like to tie all those things in a nice little bow.
00:28But I do know this is that Alex Cora doesn't do that a lot.
00:32I wrote this.
00:33I think the last time I remember him doing it this early in the season
00:35was 2019 when they got off to a terrible start on that 11-game road trip.
00:41And, you know, they come back and they play better
00:43and they win the last two.
00:44But I think that you ask, like, what they are.
00:47I think they're still a good team in a tremendously flawed American league,
00:52and that's why they can keep in this.
00:54I mean, we are talking sky is falling for the last couple of weeks,
00:58and here they sit at 10-10, right in the middle of it,
01:02just like everybody else, and that's how the American league is.
01:05But I do know this is that they got to fix some stuff, man.
01:08They got to fix some stuff.
01:10It's all right if you have a guy, for instance,
01:13that you have to bury in the lineup because they aren't producing.
01:17But when that guy is the cleanup hitter for the first two weeks of the season
01:21that all of a sudden you're burying way down the lineup
01:23because you're just trying to take the pressure off,
01:25that isn't a dynamic that's good for anybody.
01:28They're going to clean some stuff up here in the coming days.
