Depends on what you’re regressing. If you look at it from the perspective of third order win percentage, the Yankees and Red Sox are basically even, separated by roughly 1/2 a win.

Playing below Pythagorean expectation and weak record in close games:
Underperforming, or Good Sign?

Both. It’s a bad thing, but a good sign. Could have won some more games and led the AL East by a few, so, bad thing. Expect regression toward the mean, so good sign.
