Xander Bogaerts

You know, you do stuff that you know that you're used to doing.

But I think taking it a step ahead, a step further, it was beneficial for sure.

I saw him hitting the cage.

I mean, it was the same thing.

Yeah, he does.

He does.

I would imagine something like that would catch you by surprise of me being in his position, I'm just saying, you know.

But as they say sometimes, time heals, you know, time heals a lot.

And I think him going over there, he has a lot of guys from his country, you know, and they just signed a rise.

And, you know, so there's just a lot of guys that speak his language.

I think that's been helpful for him, you know, not going in there with some faces that he doesn't really know.

Yeah.

He kind of knew some of the guys.

You know, he was a big fan of Chappie, I remember, when I was with the Red Sox.

Him being over there, I think it took maybe some time, but he's definitely in a good place now.

You think so?

I mean, you've talked to him.

They would catch everyone by surprise.

They'd catch you, right?

We were both trying to get our heads around it.
