The former first round pick (24th overall) by the Boston Red Sox in the 2022 MLB draft is currently hitting .274 with 15 doubles, three triples, and eight home runs while adding 35 RBI. He makes choices in his life based upon if it has hits in it. A walk-up song, a certain outfit, what he eats or listens to pregame, he will change parts of his lifestyle based upon his performance at the plate. As for right now... if it isn't broken, don't fix it.
