7-2. I looked up some stats to assess this season so far (so you wouldn't have to)! Take a look....
The good and the bad ^(although minimal at this point)
All stats refer to the AL only, so out of 15*
Hitting:
-
Sox are 6th in the AL in hitting with a .241 average and 8th in runs scored.
-
They are 12th in BBs and 12th in Ks.
-
The Sox are pacing baseball with a .310 average when there is an 0-2 count. After the Sox, there is huge drop off with most other teams batting <.150 with an 0-2 count.
-
The Sox are last in the AL with only 18 XBH. The Astros are in first with 35.
