Michael Chavis was called up by the Boston Red Sox on April 19, 2019. Chavis took the game by storm, pulverizing 6 home runs and hitting .354 in his first 14 games. The fact that Chavis’s end of season numbers are .254/18/58 shows the steep drop-off that Chavis fell victim to.
With numerous infielders (Brock Holt, Mitch Moreland, Steve Pearce, Chris Owings) fleeing Boston this offseason, Chavis should have a much larger role in 2020. He played 49 games at first base, 45 games at second base, and 5 games at third base in 2019.
