Red Sox struggling at 27-39 as Craig Breslow's job remains secure for now
Summary

The Boston Red Sox sit at 27-39 and are 13.5 games behind in the AL East. CEO Sam Kennedy described the team's poor performance as 'embarrassing' and 'unacceptable.' The Red Sox have fired manager Alex Cora this season but have continued to struggle, ranking near the bottom in runs scored. Breslow's job security is currently not under immediate threat, though Kennedy indicated a reassessment might be necessary if performance does not improve. The team returns home this weekend to face the Texas Rangers and the Toronto Blue Jays in critical series.
