Red Sox Face Yankees, Struggling with New Additions

On April 22nd, the Boston Red Sox kickoff a three-game series against the New York

Yankees tonight, the same squad that knocked them out of the playoffs last year in the

wild car round.

Boston finished with 89 wins in 2025 and hit the trade market hard to level up, bringing

in pitchers like Sunny Gray and Johan.

Oviato, plus catcher Wilson Contreras and infielder Caleb Durbin.

They also grabbed Ranger Suarez in free agency, but trades did most of the heavy lifting

with several new faces joining the roster.

Not all those moves have clicked yet, though fans are feeling the early growing pains as

some key additions struggle to find their groove.

Take Oviato, who's now sidelined on the injured list after losing his rotation spot in

spring training, though prospect Tyler San Maneigo stepped up, strong in his call up

today replacing the Hammyhurt Gray.

Then there's Durbin, from that six-player swap with Milwaukee, batting just 162 with

no homers in 20 games, while Andrew Monasterios, not.

Lighting it up either at 222.

Meanwhile, the picture they shipped out, Kyle Harrison, is posting a 307 ERA and three

stars for his new team, which would rank second in.

Boston's rotation right now, as this rivalry reignites, the socks hope their big swing

start paying off before it's too late.

That's the story for today.
