Connor Wong, once a bright spot for the Red Sox, has seen his batting average drop to .149 in 2025. With 98 plate appearances, he has only 13 hits and no extra base hits, ranking as one of the worst hitters in baseball. Despite his defensive game slightly improving, the emergence of Carlos Narvaez as a strong catcher presents complications for Wong’s role. The team needs to manage the catching duties carefully as Wong's performance continues to decline, raising concerns for the team's future with him as a player.
In 98 plate appearances, Connor Wong has mustered up 13 hits, 9 walks, 1 run batted in, and zero extra base hits, making him the only player without an XBH.
