Khris Davis Focused On 2020 Season, Turns Page On 2019

Through the first 17 games of the 2019 season, Khris Davis did exactly what earned him the “Khrush” moniker that has now become synonymous with his name: He mashed home runs. Ten of his first 68 at-bats ended with a jog around the bases. But then, he hit just two homers over his next 34 games, with both of those coming in the same outing.

David Peralta Took A Step Forward In 2018

Going into the offseason, the Diamondbacks were probably going to lose Patrick Corbin and AJ Pollock. Re-signing the center fielder or pitcher wasn’t completely out of the question, but it didn’t seem entirely likely. Not only did they not re-sign either, but they also traded away Paul Goldschmidt, the face of their franchise who is second on the team’s all-time bWAR list. With all the players that have left, the best remaining might be David Peralta. If he’s not, he’s at least their best position player. That is, if he can repeat his 2018.
