Daily Red Sox Links: Matt Barnes, Chris Sale, Kyle Schwarber

The wheels are coming off on the season for Matt Barnes and with how often he’s pitched, it’s not entirely surprising. (John Tomase; NBC Sports Boston)

Rehab assignments are not always a fun part of the comeback-from-injury journey, but Chris Sale made the most of his and proved to be a stellar teammate no matter what level he was pitching. (Alex Reimer; WEEI/Audacy)

Soon it will be Kyle Schwarber’s turn to get in some playing time at the lower levels to work his way back. (Chris Cotillo; MassLive)

It isn’t easy to stop free falling, but the Red Sox have to show that they can be resilient or else the season will be a bust all together. (Chad Finn; Boston Globe)

Whether you want to blame the players, the coaches or the supernatural, it’s clear this Red Sox team is searching for its winning identity. (Chad Jennings; The Athletic)

It may not be too late to find that formula for winning, but its getting awfully close. (John Tomase; NBC Sports Boston)
