Red Sox offensive improvement rests with Rafael Devers, Andrew Benintendi
Can the Boston Red Sox offense continue to be a run-producing machine? Andrew Benintendi and Rafael Devers could provide the answer if others fall short.
The Boston Red Sox 2018 offense was a beautiful thing with a surge in run production and power that rehabilitated the lineup after a less than spectacular 2017 performance. There was no real mystery in assessing this transformation as J.D. Martinez becomes patient zero as catalysts in the resurgence.
An often repeated baseball axiom is offense feeds upon itself meaning that when one or more bats get hot the others follow suit. Mookie Betts and Xander Bogaerts just joined in the bashing of pitchers.
