Red Sox 'Trevor Story productively after three disturbing seasons

Trevor Story has solid statistics in the first month of the season.

The Boston Red Sox Shortstop is particularly satisfied with statistics. It cannot help someone win a fantasy baseball league, but it is important for the 32-year-old.

Story played 28 times in 30 of the 32 games from Red Sox. It is a significant number for someone who has many long routes on the injured list since they signed as Free Agent at the Red Sox during the last days of spring training in 2022.

Story played in 94 games in '22, 43 games in 2023 and in 2024 in 26 games. In his six-year contract of $ 140 million, he did not deliver a large return on investment.

However, Story hopes that this is the year in which he returns to the form he has shown when he recorded two all-star players and won two National League Silver Silver Silver Silver Silver Silver in the first six seasons from 2016 to 21.

“I have standards that I set for myself in my career,” said Story. “I signed to come here and win and play well. But the injuries stacked and when I played, it wasn't that I was a good start this year. It is what I expect from myself.”

Trevor Story Off To Good Start in 2025

The story meets with five homes and six stolen bases .272/.314/.421. He also played solid defense.

192 games with the Red Sox over four seasons, the story has a slash line .238/.298/.401. Conversely, he fought in six seasons and 745 games with the Rockies .272/.340/.532.

Part of Story's offensive success came from playing his home games for the Rocky Mountains in the mileage. His career in the Coors Field is .972 and .792 in the Bostoner Fenway Park.

However, the Red Sox believed that it would get a high -quality player when she signed the story and manager Alex Cora does not believe that the evaluation has changed.

“I really think that superstars have three long distances during the season, and then the others are okay and sometimes they have problems,” said Cora. “I hope that we have these three long distances from Trevor an elite beat and carry the offensive for a while.” Baserunning is elite and the defense is excellent. It's fun to see. “

Now it's about keeping a productive story in the field.

“My job is to keep it healthy,” said Cora. “Obviously, he hasn't played so much in recent years, so we had to be careful with it. But he strives to play. He wants to play what is great.”

Trevor Story wants to make out the lost time

The story wants to compensate for the lost time. The Red Sox has played 516 games since the obligation in history and it is only 192, which corresponds to 37.2%.

History has a $ 22.5 million salary this season two years and then his contract remain. The Red Sox holds a $ 25 million option for 2028, which includes a buyout of $ 5 million.

The Red Sox have not had a winning season since Story's arrival, although they are 16-14 this season and are expected to be candidates, especially after they had signed the third Baseman Alex Bregman for a three-year contract of $ 120 million in March.

Story also contributed to the Red Sox to overcome a loud start through the designated Hitter Rafael Devers.

The injuries to the story included a broken bone in the left shoulder, a torn band in his right elbow, which required a reconstructive operation by Tommy John, an injured left hand and an injured right hand.

“I've felt pretty well played so far,” said Story. “There is a little more consistency that I am looking for, and I think a part of it comes from the fact that I didn't play the last three regularly. I will still go down in this groove of playing. I would like to take what I've done so far and continue to build on it.

“The thing with baseball is that you have to concentrate on it today that you cannot look far ahead or too far,” added Trevor Story. I know it sounds clichéd, but it's true. You have to do that because, as I found out, you never know what can happen. “
