All-Decade Boston Red Sox Outfield
Right Field
Call me crazy, but I consider Mookie Betts (Right Field) to be Mike Trout adjacent, and at this trajectory, while Trout is already in consideration for the Greatest of All Time, Mookie is one of the best to ever do it.
Having made his Red Sox debut in 2014, since then Betts has an AL MVP award, three Silver Slugger awards, four Gold Glove awards, a Batting Title, World Series ring, and was named Player of the Year. What more could you ask for from a player?
Left Field
This one might be a little disturbing, but when you take a close look Jacoby Ellsbury (Left Field) legitimately deserves a spot in the All-Decade Red Sox team. Before taking his talents to the Bronx in 2014, Ellsbury hit .297 |.351 |.458 slugging between 2010-2013 for the Sox.
In 2011, he was selected to be an All-Star, won a Silver Slugger and Gold Glove award, and placed second in the AL MVP voting. What’s more, after signing with the New York Yankees in 2014, he became a completely diminished player. So much so that the team doesn’t want to pay him for the remainder of his deal.
Center Field
Finally, there’s Jackie Bradley Jr. (Center Field) who doesn’t necessarily spark much confidence with his bat but could very easily be the best defensive outfielder in the game. He will forever be remembered for his performance in the 2018 ALCS when he helped his team to defeat the Houston Astros, going on to win the World Series.
