Daily Red Sox Links: Adam Ottavino, Rafael Devers, Chris Sale

For the second time already this season, the Red Sox took on the Yankees for three games and won all of them. This second sweep, coming on the heels of a frustrating series loss, was a legitimate statement for this team. (Sean McAdam; Boston Sports Journal)

This wasn’t just a big sweep for the purpose of putting some space between themselves and New York, but also just proving that this team is going nowhere, and they’re setting us up for a fantastic summer. (Peter Abraham; Boston Globe)
