Craig Breslow insists Red Sox not considering drastic measures
Summary

Before a game against the Toronto Blue Jays on June 17, Craig Breslow stated that the Boston Red Sox are focused on turning around their challenging season. Starting the day with a record of 29-41, the team has struggled, especially at Fenway Park with a 12-23 record. Their recent 6-1 loss to Toronto marked a decline to 12 games below.500 for the first time in June since 1997, and they remain tied for the second-fewest wins in Major League Baseball. Although there are calls for the team to consider selling players ahead of the August 3 trade deadline, Breslow emphasized that he has not given up on the season yet.
