The Real Willson Contreras Just Stood Up | 64 Deep
from 64 Deep: A Red Sox Podcast Hosted by Big John
Willson Contreras is ON FIRE. Caleb Durbin is ice cold. And we need to talk about both. Contreras went 6-for-10 with a HR and 6 RBI this weekend in St. Louis — the real version of the guy the Red Sox traded for is finally showing up. Meanwhile, Caleb Durbin is still hitting .103 and we break down why Chandler Simpson (.370+, 5 SB) is the archetype of the player Boston needs him to become. Spoiler: the Red Sox were never going to get Simpson — but that's the standard. Also on this episode: Masataka Yoshida is quietly leading the team in OBP (.519) — should he be the leadoff hitter?
