Re: Red Sox and other Major League Baseball

Red Sox are still a last place team and 2.5 out of final wild card. Don’t let Chaim move the goalposts.

Very interested to see what Sox do at deadline considering Chaim has consistently lost trades during his tenure with Red Sox and is desperate to save his own job.
