## Resource

The Boston Red Sox are in last place with a brutal 25-33 record, and their infield is the core of the problem—three-quarters of it struggling to produce. While Willson Contreras anchors the lineup, Marcelo Mayer, Trevor Story, and Caleb Durbin have delivered minimal value, despite Isiah Kiner-Falefa’s recent hot streak. Recent signs of improvement from Mayer and Durbin offer hope, but the team may need to lock in a new infield alignment or explore trades—like acquiring Isaac Paredes—to finally turn things around.
