Padres Agree With Xander Bogaerts On 11-Year Deal
The San Diego Padres agreed to an 11-year, $280 million deal with free-agent shortstop Xander Bogaerts on Wednesday night. It comes after Trea Turner scored an 11-year, $300 million deal from the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday. Bogaerts has been an All-Star in three of the last four seasons and was extremely productive yet again in 2022 for the Boston Red Sox, slashing .307/.377/.456 with an .833 OPS, 15 home runs, 73 RBI, 84 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 150 games. The power drop from 23 to 15 homers has to be a bit concerning, though, as he enters his 30s. He'll have plenty of chances to drive in and score runs in a loaded Padres lineup, however. The addition of Bogaerts officially means the Padres are prepared to move star shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. to the outfield.
Dec 8, 2022 • 6:03 AM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts Officially Opts Out
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts officially opted out of his $20 million player option with the Red Sox for the 2023 season and has become a free agent, according to the MLB Players Association. Bogaerts will forego the final three years of his deal with Boston in order to hit the open market and cash in this winter. The shortstop free-agent market will have some big names on it this offseason, and Bogaerts will be right up there at the top. The 30-year-old made his fourth All-Star team (and second straight) in 2022 by hitting an impressive .307/.377/.456 with an .833 OPS, 15 home runs, 73 RBI, 84 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 631 plate appearances over 150 games. Playing in Boston was nice for his fantasy outlook, but he should remain a high-end target at the position, regardless of where he lands in free agency.
Nov 7, 2022 • 11:08 PM | RotoBallerRed Sox To Attempt To Retain Xander Bogaerts?
Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom said that the team will try to retain shortstop Xander Bogaerts. "That process is going to start right away from our end. We haven't found that path yet. We still want to. We're going to work really hard at it," Bloom said. Bogaerts is fully expected to opt out of the final three years and $60 million on his deal to become a free agent this winter, but the Red Sox will be trying to keep him around after he hit .307/.377/.456 with an .833 OPS, 15 home runs, 73 RBI, 84 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 557 at-bats this year. If Bogaerts reaches the open market, he'll be one of the most coveted players available heading into the 2023 season.
Oct 6, 2022 • 3:49 PM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts Returns Against Rays
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (back) is back at shortstop and is hitting third against the Tampa Bay Rays and left-hander Jeffrey Springs on Tuesday. Bogaerts should be fine to play the final two games of the regular season for the BoSox. The 30-year-old is expected to opt out of his contract with the team this offseason, so Tuesday and Wednesday will likely be his final two games in Beantown. Bogaerts has made the All-Star team each of the last two years (four selections overall) and is currently hitting a strong .305/.376/.450 with an .826 OPS, 14 home runs, 69 RBI, 83 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 625 plate appearances over 148 games this year. He'll be one of the most coveted players in free agency if he reaches the open market this winter.
Oct 4, 2022 • 8:09 PM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts Out With Back Tightness
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (back) is out of the starting lineup on Monday against the Tampa Bay Rays due to back tightness. It's the second straight game that Bogaerts will begin on the bench, but he should be considered day-to-day for the final two games of the regular season on Tuesday and Wednesday. If the 30-year-old isn't clear to play for the rest of the week, he'll finish with a .305/.376/.450 slash line with an .826 OPS, 14 home runs, 69 RBI, 83 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 551 at-bats in what is expected to be his final season in Boston. Enrique Hernandez is at the 6 on Monday and is hitting seventh against Rays right-hander Tyler Glasnow. In 24 games in September, Hernandez went 20-for-82 (.244) with no homers, 10 RBI and 16 runs scored.
Oct 3, 2022 • 10:50 PM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts Has Back Spasms Tuesday, Won't Play Wednesday
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (back) exited Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the Rays with back spasms, per MLB.com's Ian Browne. Bogaerts went 0-for-3 with a strikeout before being replaced by Rob Refsnyder. It sounds like Bogaerts is day-to-day, as it was reported that he will not be in the lineup on Wednesday. His numbers haven't been bad with a .315/.382/.466 slash line, 12 home runs, 63 RBI and eight steals, but they also haven't been exactly what fantasy managers had hoped for in terms of counting stats. There is still time for Bogaerts to contribute, but fantasy managers should keep an eye out for when he will be back in the Red Sox's lineup.
Sep 7, 2022 • 4:36 AM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts, Tommy Pham Return Against Blue Jays
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (back) and outfielder Tommy Pham (back) are both back in the starting lineup on Thursday against Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman. Bogaerts is back at short and hitting cleanup, while Pham is in left field and batting leadoff. Both players left the game early on Tuesday with lower back spasms, but they're back in there against Toronto. Bogaerts hasn't hit well in August, but he's still slashing .298/.369/.439 with an .808 OPS, 10 long balls, 50 RBI, 66 runs scored and seven stolen bases in 433 at-bats this year. Pham has hit .267/.295/.493 with three homers, 13 RBI and 12 runs scored in 18 games since being acquired from the Cincinnati Reds at the trade deadline.
Aug 25, 2022 • 8:14 PM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts, Tommy Pham Won't Play Wednesday
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (back) and outfielder Tommy Pham (back) will not play on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Bogaerts left Tuesday's game early with mid-back spasms after going 0-for-2 with a walk. Meanwhile, Pham also left with back spasms in the same contest. It's unclear if either player will need a stint on the injured list, but for now, fantasy managers should consider them day-to-day. Pham also missed the game last Saturday, so his injury could be a bit more serious. Bogaerts is hitting a strong .298/.369/.439 with an .808 OPS, 10 home runs, 50 RBI, 66 runs scored and seven stolen bases and is a must-start whenever he's in the lineup. In 18 games with Boston, Pham has gone 20-for-75 (.267) with three homers, 13 RBI and 12 runs scored.
Aug 24, 2022 • 3:29 PM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts Exits Tuesday With Back Spasms
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (back) exited Tuesday's 9-3 loss to the Blue Jays in the top of the seventh inning with back spasms, per Providence Journal's Bill Koch. Bogaerts went 0-for-2 with a walk before being replaced by Bobby Dalbec. The 29-year-old has had an up-and-down season while playing through pain in his left wrist and left shoulder, slashing .298/.369/.439 with 10 home runs, 50 RBI, and seven stolen bases. Bogaerts should be considered day-to-day, although he will not be in Wednesday's lineup.
Aug 24, 2022 • 4:03 AM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts Dealing With Wrist, Shoulder Pain
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts told reporters on Monday that he has been playing through pain in his left wrist and left shoulder ever since his collision with Alex Verdugo on May 20. Bogaerts went on to reveal that he has been getting cortisone shots and he thinks that he has had to readjust his swing mechanics to compensate for the pain. Of course, that could explain why Bogaerts has struggled mightily at the plate of late, hitting just .220 with one homer over his past 15 games. Bogaerts can become a free-agent after the season, so these struggles are not coming at an opportune time for him. On the year, the veteran shortstop is hitting .299 with 10 homers, 66 runs, 50 RBI, and seven steals.
Aug 23, 2022 • 1:50 AM | RotoBallerXander Bogaerts In Wednesday's Lineup
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (shin) is back in the lineup on Wednesday for a matchup with the Pittsburgh Pirates and right-hander Roansy Contreras. Bogaerts is enjoying another quality season at the plate, batting .303 with a .373 on-base percentage, nine home runs and seven stolen bases in 466 plate appearances. He'll hit third for Boston on Wednesday against Contreras and the Pirates, with left fielder Tommy Pham hitting leadoff and third baseman Rafael Devers batting second.
