Forget Benintendi as the ultimate slumper, I just don't get how guys like JDM and Rafi devers all of a sudden forget to hit. JBJr doesn't matter because his bat never was relied upon. His contract year is going to hell fast. The reality is that the Sox individually were not interested in nor ready for the short season. No motivation probably stemming from the perception of the pitching deficits, so the hitters said, may as well be us too. Someone forgot to tell Xander though
