Casas basically the only hitter these days not swinging out of his shoes sitting dead pull on every pitch. Also the only guy still hitting home runs anyway. Nothing but extra inning swings for far too long.

As Middlebrooks said, 40 at bats is less than Story would have gotten in AAA. There's no chance he's ready to face even mediocre major league pitching
This is my main beef with the notion that the reinforcements would save the day. Some/most of these guys will take time to become their usual selves, and we’re taking on water

I saw Dinelson Lamet in an off-Broadway production of Hamlet. He played the ghost of Hamlet's father

Baseball is somewhat unpredictable, so it could be a Tale of Two games, with the Sox coming out on top. But right now they are flatter than Kyrie's Earth.

I meant Spring Training, not AAA, but your point holds
