The Red Sox have played .500 baseball and enter the trade deadline sitting at the bottom of their division.

While they're not in line to win the AL East, the Sox are only four games out of the wild card race, leading many -– including NESN's Don Orsillo — to believe that the Red Sox can't be counted out quite yet.

Orsillo also believes that pitcher Josh Beckett is going to be around to help the Sox in their run toward the playoffs. Beckett has had a less-than-stellar season, leading to speculation that the hurler won't be in Boston for much longer.

Check out the video above to hear what Orsillo has to say about the fates of both the Red Sox and Beckett.
