Red Sox Remaining Strength of Schedule: .498 w/ 35 games left (15th toughest)

  • 7 vs Tampa
  • 6 vs Baltimore
  • 3 vs Seattle
  • 3 vs New York

An interesting stretch to watch for the Sox is actually going to be the one that starts up here soon. They start a series against Cleveland on Friday and then play Tampa for four games, Cleveland for three more, and Tampa again for four. There’s a chance that Boston could make a big move up OR down the standings due to those Tampa games.

There is good news at the end of the season for Boston though. six of their last 14 are going to be against Baltimore, with three more against the Nationals. That’s a lot of games against teams that are shutting it down or will be completely out of it by the end of the season.

If so interested, the Red Sox will actually be coming to town to play the Mariners on September 13-15th for a three-game series. If both teams are able to make it through the next couple of weeks semi-unscathed, then we could be seeing a wonderful series at T-Mobile in the middle of September with a lot on the line.
