A rash of injuries to the Red Sox rotation has led to a streak not seen in Boston since the World War II era.
But it's also a sign that Boston is seriously lacking pitching depth. With four members of their five-man Opening Day rotation on the injured list , the Red Sox have been forced to thrust their young arms into action.
Results have been mixed, too: Boston lost all three of those games with Bello, Winckowski and Connor Seabold on the mound, and each member of that trio has an ERA north of 5.00. Simply put, it's hard to win games when you're rolling out rookie pitchers every night, which is why such streaks rarely happen on good teams. The 1945 Red Sox finished that season 71-83 with several of their top players away from the team while serving in World War II.set to make his season debut
Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays, while Eovaldi is scheduled to throw three rehab innings Sunday for Triple-A Worcester. Boston is firmly in the Wild Card race but now sits 16 games back of the Yankees after going 3-7 in its last 10 games. That's partly due to the lack of depth in a rotation that has been stretched to a historic degree over the past week.
