Joc Pederson? More like Joc Dingerson imo.
No, yeah, i’ll show myself out after some numbers about the Dodgers rookie CFer who is proving everybody who slightly doubted him wrong. He, of course, hit his 6th home run of the season, and while all the scouts and analysts figured he’d hit for power, but he’s on a 42 home run pace, and the last two guys who did that (Curtis Granderson and Josh Hamilton both in 2012) weren’t nearly the defender Pederson is.
So Pederson is off to a hot start, and he’s started in 21 out of the 23 games the Dodgers have played in, at CF, this alone is significant because if he stays healthy [knock on wood], he will join Johnny Frederick, Don Demeter, Willie Davis, Jim Hickman, Carl Furillo, and Rudy Law as the only Dodger rookies since 1914 to start at least 70% of the games in CF while also compiling 300+ Plate Appearances.
