The Boston Red Sox are currently sitting at a 43-38 record, holding third place in their division and just 1.5 games away from a wild-card position as the MLB trade deadline looms a month away.<\/p>\n
Manager Alex Cora recently shared his perspective on the upcoming deadline and the team\u2019s strategy moving forward.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen it comes to the trading deadline, there are three paths you can take: buying, selling, or staying put,\u201d Cora explained. \u201cStaying put means you risk other teams improving around you. It\u2019s not about being a bad team; it\u2019s about others getting better.\u201d<\/p>\n
Looking ahead, Cora emphasized a proactive approach: \u201cWe\u2019ll see what unfolds in the next month or so. We need to keep playing strong baseball. While the wild card is within reach, let\u2019s not settle. There are teams ahead of us struggling, and we can capitalize. Let\u2019s aim higher and see where the season takes us.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cora\u2019s call to \u201cget greedy\u201d reflects the Red Sox\u2019s ambitious stance. With the potential return of first baseman Triston Casas and a couple of strategic additions, Boston could bolster their chances significantly for a playoff spot.<\/p>\n
Having exceeded expectations this season, the Red Sox are poised to make a push, deserving of the reinforcements that could elevate their game as they pursue postseason success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
