A comparison throwdown between two Boston Red Sox right fielders.
Digging into my fading memory banks regarding Alex Verdugo I was looking for a comparison. Mike Greenwell was rejected based on his lack of defensive prowess in the field and Greenwell was primarily a left fielder. So the choice of comparison is Trot Nixon who played eight full seasons for the Boston Red Sox and parts of two others in which Nixon enjoyed a cup of coffee.
