Pitching-wise, they figured to be good, but that hasn\u2019t been the case.<\/p>\n<p>As bad as their pitching has been and dealing with injuries, their offense has been a disaster. The numbers reflect that. There are no clear answers in sight. The latest struggles reared their ugly head on Monday night in a 2-1 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Boston Red Sox Shortstop Trevor Story Doesn\u2019t Mince Words After Loss To Phillies<\/h2>\n<p>Boston\u2019s offensive struggles are noticeable. According to Peter Abraham of the Boston Globe, Tuesday night\u2019s loss was the Red Sox\u2019s 11th this season when scoring one run or fewer. That\u2019s not going to win many games. That\u2019s not breaking any news. After Tuesday\u2019s loss, shortstop Trevor Story didn\u2019t mince words on Boston\u2019s offensive struggles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t feel good right now\u2026 all we can do is keep pushing,\u201d said Story on the NESN broadcast.<\/p>\n<p>That is all they can do. However, the offensive struggles just happen to coincide with third baseman Alex Bregman leaving in free agency for the Chicago Cubs. Sure, not all of their struggles can be attributed to that, but it certainly is an area to begin with.<\/p>\n<p>It also doesn\u2019t help that Roman Anthony is struggling and is now on the injured list with a wrist injury. Willson Contreras, after being hit by a pitch over the weekend, is hoping to avoid an injured-list stint.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve talked about it last year, and pretty much every year,\u201d Story said. \u201cThe best teams here play well at home, and we have to find a way to do that and just kind of reverse what we got going. Easier said than done, but we\u2019re putting in the work, and we\u2019re confident that we can do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It is easier said than done, but there is no clear fix in sight. Story is part of the offensive struggles. Mickey Gasper, coming up from Triple-A, has produced in a short period of time. However, over the long haul, can he sustain that? As far as winning at Fenway, again, easier said than done when you score one run or slightly more a night.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Boston Red Sox Offseason Approach Did Not Address Offense<\/h2>\n<p>It seemed like Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow put all of his eggs in Bregman\u2019s basket, that he would return. When he didn\u2019t, Breslow\u2019s pivot was to starting pitching, signing left-hander Ranger Su\u00e1rez from the Phillies. Not exactly the move many were expecting.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Chad-Tracy.jpg?quality=65&amp;strip=all&amp;w=425\" alt=\"Marcelo Mayer Splits, News &amp; Bio - HEAVY\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Bregman\u2019s replacement was added before spring training in a trade with the Milwaukee Brewers. Breslow traded for Caleb Durbin, and it has been nothing short of a disaster offensively. He\u2019s slashing .169\/.250\/.246 with one home run and 14 runs driven in. That\u2019s a far cry from his .256\/.334\/.387 slash line with the Brewers in 2025. Boston would take those numbers now.<\/p>\n<p>The Red Sox were built on pitching and defense in 2026. That has let them down, and it is compounded even more by the struggles at the plate. Unless they figure things out sooner rather than later, things could get much worse this summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getty When the 2026 MLB season began, one thing we knew about the Boston Red Sox was that there were questions surrounding their offense.
