The future of the Red Sox is bright
Hang tough Red Sox Nation! I know it’s never fun talking about players that could be wearing different jerseys come next season but it’s something we all have to face as fans. We still have plenty of baseball left on the schedule for 2021 and Boston will surely put up a fight as October inches closer and closer. We have a very light schedule to look forward to as the season concludes and that Wild Card spot is within reach.
The Sox seem to be on the other side of their COVID scare as well and we should start seeing players coming back relatively soon. Once the squad is back to full strength I think my confidence will climb but I’ll admit every night I’m having to monitor my blood pressure. With each returning player, I know those numbers will go down and the Red Sox wins will continue to go up. But that’s just talking about 2021, we have to circle back to 2022 though.
Chaim has done wonders for the farm system in his short tenure and we have a handful of players on the Top-100 right now which I never would’ve expected a year or two ago. The mix of veteran stars and exciting young prospects in our system has my mouth watering for the next few years of Red Sox baseball. I can’t wait to see Rafael Devers transform into the old veteran surrounded by youngsters at the ripe old age of like 26.
We have plenty to be thankful for as none of us thought we’d be contending for a postseason spot in 2021. We also have plenty to look forward to with this roster and what Chaim and Alex Cora can do with it as players progress and evolve each and every day. While we may have to say goodbye to some familiar faces and fan favorites, that just means we’ll have more room for new friends and some cool new buds.
