Playoff Rotation
Boston is realigning its starting pitching rotation as the team prepares for a likely postseason appearance against the Yankees.
Crochet's Return
Garrett Crochet needs to appear in a regular-season game before the playoffs to prove he is healthy and ready for high-stakes competition.
Catcher Health
Adley Rutman provides a necessary offensive upgrade at catcher, provided he can overcome his recent elbow injury to maintain his presence in the lineup.
Best Lineup
Maximizing Boston's offensive production requires shifting positions to feature Rutman, Contraras, Gasper, and Anthony in the starting nine.
Anthony's Defense
Roman Anthony is a preferable defensive option in left field over Jaren Duran, despite lingering concerns about his proficiency in the position.
