Red Sox fans have a lot to be pleased about through the first week of the season, but Alex says it's wise to proceed with caution.

Outside of David Price and Steven Wright –– yes, Steven Wright –– the starting pitching has been abysmal. Clay Buchholz, Joe Kelly and Rick Porcello have a combined ERA north of 14.00 in their first three starts.

The offense has been terrific so far, largely thanks to Hanley Ramirez's performance. But it's important to keep in mind that Ramirez performed last April, too. The question is whether he can can keep it up through the full 162-game slate.

The same questions persist about Brock Holt and Travis Shaw. They've been phenomenal filling in through the first week, but can the Red Sox count on them to keep producing?

In the "Around the League" segment, Alex takes a look at the AL East standings and also explains the story behind Bomani Jones' "Caucasians" shirt.
