With the Red Sox outfield playing at a historically bad level, a change needs to be made.
Should they consider Matt Kemp, who just a few years ago was considered to be one of if not the best player in baseball?
Is he worth taking an expensive risk?
That question and more on today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast..

There is a three way tie for the NL East lead. That does not include the New York Mets.
There is no excuse why the Mets are not contenders now and they are blowing a chance to become the team of the city.
All that and other thoughts on today’s episode of The The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast..

@sullybaseball Hey…How did neither the Red Sox nor the Yankees get Kendrys Morales?
— Michael Shure (@michaelshure) June 7, 2014
What kind of a world are we living in? The Red Sox and Yankees used to gobble up all the free agents. Now they are letting ones they need slip away!

As of right now, the Tampa Bay Rays have the worst record in the Major Leagues. That does NOT mean they are the worst team in baseball. They should not panic because the bones of a championship team in 2015 remain.

A’s and Giants could very well meet in October. There is no reason to think they couldn’t… and it would be a great continuing of past traditions and missed opportunities.

There is legit bad blood between the Red Sox and Rays. For Boston fans of a certain age, I bet it is more emotional than seeing the Yankees.
And that is good for baseball.

Manny Ramirez returned to Fenway Park and it was a beautiful thing. There was too much happiness from 2004 to let bad feelings linger.
Plus the Royals are falling apart, the Astros and Marlins are suddenly good and the Giants nearly threw one of the ugliest no hitters ever.

@sullybaseball Sunday Req. Thurs, Anthony Rizzo bunted twice at shift for hits. Fair game or cheap hits?
— Battleaxe (@shawnohare1) May 17, 2014
The glib answer I can give to the question is “Both!”
A cheap hit is fair game. If a team is willing to concede a hit, then it is imperative to take it. Is it cheap to accept an intentional walk?
That and the opening of Star Wars on today’s episode.

These are not the best days for the Red Sox. Seven game losing streaks aren’t exactly becoming for a World Series defense.
They should not panic and neither should Red Sox fans. There is help in the farm system and the long term effect of fixing the team from within will be worth it.

You are hard pressed to find a more crazy day than yesterday in Major League Baseball.

Today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast. is a direct response to a Twitter follower.
I gave Who Owned Baseball to Julio Teheran over Adam Wainwright. Not everyone agreed.
@sullybaseball How do you not pick Waino for #WOB? 9IP, 1H, 0BB, 9K, 115pitches/86 strikes. Tehran: 9IP, 6H, 2BB, 8K, 128 pitches/83 strikes
— Steven Paul Hines (@HinesIs2nd) May 21, 2014
It was a tough call. But the main difference was the fact that Teheran pitched against a first place Milwaukee team and Wainwright pitched against a horrible Diamondbacks squad.

With roughly 25% of the season already in the books, the AL East is hovering around .500.
For the Orioles, Blue Jays and Rays, this is a chance to take the Division and run with it. Push the chips all in NOW!

Sean Doolittle got a save last night and it was the real deal.
A few changes need to be made to the save rule to make it relevant again.
Plus I like the DH being in the AL but not the NL.
