The Red Sox So Far

The Sox sit atop the AL East

8-4, .667%


Here's who I think are the key Batters and how they are doing.

1B Mike Napoli


Games Played: 12
At Bat's: 50
Hits: 11
Runs: 5
Homers: 2
Total Bases: 21
RBI's: 11
Steals: 0
Walks: 1
Average: .220 




on pace for 27 HR's, I'd take that.

2B Dustin Pedroia


Games Played: 12
At Bat's: 45
Hits: 14
Runs: 7
Homers: 0
Total Bases: 16
RBI's: 4
Steals: 1
Walks: 8
Average: .311 




Appears to be working the count with 8 base on balls.

3B Will Middlebrooks


Games Played: 12
At Bat's: 46
Hits: 10
Runs: 7
Homers: 4
Total Bases: 24
RBI's: 7
Steals: 0
Walks: 2
Average: .217 



75% of Middlebrooks HR's came in one game!


CF Jacoby Ellsbury

Games Played: 12
At Bat's: 55
Hits: 14
Runs: 8
Homers: 1
Total Bases: 25
RBI's: 8
Steals: 5
Walks: 2

Ellsbury should hit .290 in 2013!

RF Shane Victorino


Games Played: 12

Hits: 15
Runs: 6
Homers: 0
Total Bases: 16
