Some of the Rays’ top-30 infielders are off to great starts.

Wander Franco: 1.056 OPS (league average .751)
Vidal Brujan: 1.088 OPS (league average .751)
Greg Jones: 1.571 OPS (league average .687)
Taylor Walls: 1.005 OPS (league average .751)

Alika Williams only played in one game this series, and Brent Honeywell didn’t pitch.
