Red Sox Face Travel Woes Ahead of Crucial Series Against Mets

The Boston Red Sox are currently facing travel issues as their plane has been unable to leave Chicago for their upcoming series against the Mets in New York. This delay has caused uncertainty about their arrival time at LaGuardia Airport, just hours before the game on Friday night. Despite previous travel problems after a series in Colorado, the Red Sox managed to sweep the Yankees in a four-game series and continued their winning streak against the Angels and White Sox. The team's recent success has improved their standing in the AL East, but their chances of making the playoffs remain slim at 30.5 percent, according to FanGraphs. However, with a strong performance in the upcoming games and potential trade deadline upgrades, the Red Sox could still have a shot at the postseason. The priority now is to resolve the travel issues and make it to New York in time for the series against the Mets.
