Why the Red Sox should re-sign Jackie Bradley Jr.

Since his debut in 2013, Jackie Bradley Jr. has been a staple at the back end of the Red Sox’ lineup. He’s provided spectacular defense and hustle day in and day out, and when he’s gotten hot at the plate, he’s gotten hot. I don’t think anyone forgets his 29-game hitting streak in 2016, when he hit .415 and slugged .783 over 106 at bats. Or his grand slam off Roberto Osuna in the 2018 ALCS. Or his game-tying bomb in Game 4 of the World Series. The list goes on and on.
