Traveling. Blacked-out.

 I'm traveling for work and stuff right now. Bad timing re the baseball season 'cause I'm blacked out from watching the games on NESN360.

The first series of the season, with the Texas Rangers started nicely, but struggled after that. We stand at 3-1 heading to Baltimore, for a series with the uncharacteristically strong Orioles.

The players I predicted (hoped?) would be strong have started slowly.

Story, Casas, Duran, and even Bregman have not had the first four games we had fantasized about. And Devers is really struggling.

On the plus side. Abreau, Campbell and Hamilton are starting strong.

It's too soon to panic. Good chance things will turn around. It's a long season. Let's be patient till we have a dozen or so games behind us.

This morning's Globe Red Sox Notes says that **Kristian Campbell** is the new leader.
