On March 30th, the Boston Red Sox kicked off 2026, looking like a whole new squad after shaking up their roster from last year, but their early results feel like Dejavu all over again. They wrapped up 2025 by dropping two of three in the AL Wildcard series against the New York Yankees, snagging Game 1, thanks to. Garrett Crochet's strong start before their bats iced up and defense crumbled in the losses. Fast forward to this week's opener against the Cincinnati Reds on the road, and is the same script, Crochet shines for a three run win in the first. Game? Then they dropped the next two with quiet sticks and key spots and heirs that stung. The parallels run deep same three runs early, a one run heartbreaker in the middle, and connolly early on the mound for the finale leaving fans. Scratching heads about whether the offseason fixes really stuck. Now they shake it off heading to Houston for more road action against the Astros starting Monday night, hoping to flip the pattern before it defines the year.
