Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored Thursday against the Rays.
Bogaerts drove both of his doubles off the wall with authority, one pulled down the left field line and the other hit to straightaway center field. The fact that he drove the ball in the air and with power is an encouraging sign after he ended the 2017 season with a disappointing .130 ISO. After battling a wrist injury in the second half of last season, Bogaerts appears to be healthy as 2018 gets underway.
