How did Ranger’s latest addition to the team play in the 2022 season?
Eovaldi started the opening day as a pitcher for the third time in a row. Which led him to become only the tenth player of the Red Sox to do so. However, he did not have a great season this year because he ended up being on the injured list for most of it.?
He played a total of 20 games in the recent season. And took his team to win in 11 of them. He wrapped the season with 109.1 IP and gave 21 home runs to the opposition teams. But one rough season does not mean a rough season forever.?
