Red Sox's Xander Bogaerts: 18th homer in Friday's win
Bogaerts went 2-for-6 with a home run and two RBI in Friday night's win over Toronto.
Analysis:
Bogaerts has been slumping for the past five weeks, as he's hitting just .217 over hit last 35 games, which has moved him out of the third spot in the batting order to second. Despite the slump, the 2016 season has been a good follow-up to his breakout 2015. He's added a power element to his offense, setting himself up to be a 20-homer bat out of the shortstop position.
