Rest-of-Season Projections

On base three times in rare start
Chavis went 2-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Sunday's loss to the Royals.
ANALYSIS
Getting the start at third base and hitting seventh, Chavis delivered his first multi-hit performance of the season and drove in his second run. The 27-year-old has seen little action off the Nationals' bench this season, but over 15 appearances he's batting .290 (9-for-31) while mainly getting used against left-handed pitching.

Chavis sometimes draws comparisons to Dustin Pedroia in that both are short in stature. That is honestly where the comps should end between the former great and the current role player on the Boston roster. Chavis came up with a bang in 2019 until the scouting reports caught up to him and the league began feeding him a heavy diet of high heat and soft stuff away, leading to him striking out once in every three plate appearances that season. The 2020 season was more of the same as the league continued to pitch him in a similar manner and Chavis simply did not adjust. Couple that with some terrible fielding at any position he played, and it was a miserable season for the sophomore. The raw power and the home park are a nice fit, but his contact issues and fielding woes will severely limit his upside. He qualifies at three positions for 2021, which is always helpful in AL drafts.
