Red Sox's Anthony: Arm Accuracy Key to Defense

0:00On April 8th, the Boston Red Sox are off to a rough start this season, sitting dead last in the ALE's with a 4-8 record. Even after shutting out the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday, their pitching staff has been taking hits. The offense is sputtering with just 44. Run scored, ranking 21st in MLB, and defense has been shaky too. Earlier this week against the Brewers, Outfielder Roman Anthony had a prime chance to gun down the go-ahead runner at home plate, but his throw sailed. Way off target. It's not his first miss, he's bashed at least three throws to the plate already, letting runs cross. Anthony owned up to the bad throw right after the game, but these laps his Echols counting reports from last year on MLB pipeline. They noted his solid arm strength grades, but pointed out he only notched two assists in over 100 minor league Outfielder starts in 20, 24. The Red Sox front-off has flagged these defensive question marks before calling him up, and now it's showing in the big leagues. With the team needing every edge, they can't ignore this if they want to climb out of the basement.

1:03Fixing Anthony's arm accuracy could unlock his power potential, and steady the defense. Something Boston desperately needs as they push through this. Early slump and hunt for momentum. This has been Boston Red Sox News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey, with the story.
