You’re going to enjoy this one, Boston Red Sox fans.
Yes, your club is sitting atop the American League East standings as May winds down. But far, far more importantly, Boston landed three—count ’em, three—players on Bleacher Report’s MLB Team of the Month.
Feels good, right?
The rules are essentially the same as Team of the Week, except we’re looking at stats from the past 30 days instead of the last seven.
Other than that, it’s what you’ve come to expect: one player per position, including a designated hitter and starting pitcher, who have busted box scores.
To qualify, a player needs to have made the majority of his starts at the position in question. And while this is mostly about individual output, we award bonus points for gaudy numbers that led to notches in the win column.
Feel free to add your picks and nitpicks in the comments, and proceed when ready.
