Xander Bogaerts

Club: Boston Red Sox

Position: Shortstop

Age: 28

Verdict: Buy

Bogaerts is one of the most underrated players in the game today.  Over nine seasons, he is a 2-time All-Star and has averaged 29 home runs and 89 runs batted in.  To be fair, he is mediocre in the field, but by the end of the 2021 season his lifetime wins above replacement will be around 30.  At that pace, if Bogaerts maintains his current performance level and stays healthy, he will be a boarder-line Hall of Famer when his career concludes.  

In addition, the Red Sox lead the American League East, which means that you will likely see Bogaerts in the playoffs this October.  With his raw 2012 Bowman Chrome currently priced at less than $15, now might be the time to act before the rest of the collecting world wakes up to the kind of talent he is.
