The Mike Napoli deal
had to happen. Let's get that out on the table right away. And yet, it
is interesting to see Nap's resurgence since
re-donning the uniform of the Texas Rangers. As
MassLive.com's Nick O'Malley points out, in just 11 games,
Napoli is hitting .318—with a .400 OBP, is slugging .636 and has a 1.036 OPS. He will likely get more starts if this trend continues—as the Rangers are (amazingly) right in the thick of the playoff hunt. It's good to see Napoli reverting to what we came to expect of him during his Red Sox tenure. Maybe we can watch him again in the post-season.
