If there’s one player who epitomizes the Red Sox disappointing start to the 2020 season, it’s Andrew Benintendi. Through the first 11 games of the season, Benintendi is hitting just 2-for-29 for a batting average of .069 with 12 strikeouts (good for 2nd on the team behind Rafael Devers) and 0 home runs. Benintendi is currently the Red Sox worst hitter and it’s not even close. In fact, Benintendi isn’t just the worst hitter on the Red Sox. He’s the worst hitter in baseball.
As we hit August, we are now in a rare time when all four of Boston’s major sports teams are participating in some kind of action. Let’s take a look at where they stand and how they should proceed.
After 10 games of the abbreviated 2020 MLB season, it is apparent that the Red Sox as a whole are trending down. While it was presumed to be a tough season in Beantown after losing Alex Cora, trading Mookie Betts, and losing Chris Sale, most Red Sox fans did not expect things to be so bleak at the 10 game marker.

Last night, the Bronx Bombers won their 18th straight game against the Baltimore Orioles when Aaron Judge blasted a 3-1 fastball off of Cole Sulser after being down 5-6 in the top of the ninth. Judge’s late homer helped the Yankees cover the -1.5 run line which was listed at -167 on DraftKings, according to the action network.com. Now while there is arguably no better feeling than falling asleep after cashing on a ninth inning cover, that was yesterday, and today we’re looking ahead to a highly anticipated series against the Boston Red Sox.
