That ended the three-time All-Star's second stint with the team he debuted with in 2005 Matt Williams Jersey , as his most recent tenure came with high expectations after he signed a four-year, $88 million contract in November 2014.He sat out the remainder of the 2018 season. Meanwhile, the Red Sox set a franchise record with 108 regular-season wins en route a World Series title.After he underwentshoulder surgery in October 2017, the 35-year-old was hitting .254/.313/.395 with six home runs, seven doubles and 29 RBI in 44 games with the Red Sox.

Five of his six home runs in 2018 came off right-handers, but he hit .333 against southpaws and .230 against righties. Not only that, but he also came up big in clutch situations.
