Default Rafael Devers

Random card of the day

Orange in honor of mashing the Orioles last night

And jersey #11/25!

Fun story on this card: it supposedly sold at one point for >$1k in the heyday (I’m guessing a fake sale)… was more reasonable when we got it

Sucker for the color match, dug the image, pretty low pop, easy pick up.

Going to interesting if he makes the HOF.

If he averages 4 WAR the next 10 years until he is 37 and hangs on for 2 more years at 1 WAR that will put him at ~70 which should get him in.

I think we need to see a couple 6+ years… feels like mid-30s above 2-3 is probably hard… its possible this year if he turned it back on, for instance

One thing I see other great players do is shrink their k% / raise bb% as they age… not sure we see that, yet

Devers has never been a WAR darling.
1000 hits and 200 HR at 27 puts him in great shape for big career counting stats.

His postseason stats - 28 RBI in 28 games?!?! - can only help.

If he avoids major injury he will be a lock for the hall.

BTW that pitch was well above the zone… at a level he normally would whiff

If he learns to hit them… that would be AMAZING!!!

One of Raffy’s more visually appealing RCs.

Devers lack of clutch hitting is killing the Red Sox

I know he's been bad this year. I'm just curious what's behind it. I feel like he tends to face fresh lefty relievers in a lot of these situations. I wonder how much of it is a platoon issue and being targeted by opposing managers.

If it's contributing, their over-saturation of lefty hitters is surely not helping him (makes it too easy for the opposing manager to bring in a lefty).
