Even though a playoff berth wasn't clinched yet, Gordo and Sammy aren't too worried about the Red Sox while Pat still has some reservations.

Gordo, Sammy, and Pat are all together again to share their satisfaction with a series win by the Red Sox in Sacramento against the A's highlighted by some dominant pitching.

Also, it was the other side of spectrum once again for Payton Tolle which puts his rotation spot in serious doubt. And, we finally got to see the Sox debut from Kyle Harrison and hanging out in Worcester seems to have paid off in his first appearance.

Gordo and Sammy are out in the desert after witnessing the Sox look lifeless in the first two games against the D-Backs, but salvaged the series finale. How concerned should fans be with the struggles from the lineup without Roman Anthony and Payton Tolle? Also, its clear missing Roman AND Wilyer Abreu is hurting the offense so its right now about surviving until they return. And, there's more uncertainty in the back end of the bullpen and finding a fourth and fifth starter is more than crucial in this September run.

Roman Anthony won't be playing for the foreseeable future with a strained oblique and Gordo, Sammy, and Pat try to cope with the unfortunate injury. What kind of a gut punch did this injury leave to the Red Sox and their fanbase? Also, the upcoming west coast road trip to Arizona and Sacramento just got even more important.
