But for all that hype, the 21-year-old rookie has seemingly exceeded expectations through his 53 games with the Red Sox.
How so? Putting himself in the same company as Ted Williams on a few Red Sox records is a good start.
Obviously, Anthony has a long way to go to come close to the offensive juggernaut that a baseball legend like Williams was.
