On top of all the Red Sox pitching injuries, one more piece of bad karma has hit the team.
Alex Rodriguez—in his capacity as an analyst for FOX Sports—has picked the Red Sox to win the American League pennant and meet the Washington Nationals in the 2017 World Series. Both
Pete Rose and
Frank Thomas picked a Cubs-Indians re-match in
The Fall Classic. Honestly, we're not sure how to react to this development. On the one hand, it's good to know that the Red Sox are viewed by elements of the national media as legitimate contenders. On the other hand, it's
A-Fraud, for crying-out-loud!
