When Aledmys Diaz batted 17 points better than Ted Williams’ finest season in his first month in the big leagues, it’s probably fair to say that most people around baseball figured he couldn’t keep it up. When Diaz slugged 116 points better than Barry Bonds’ career mark in his first month in the big leagues, most people undoubtedly thought that it wouldn’t last.
