The Boston Red Sox are playing some of their best baseball of the season thanks to the rise of their impact players.

Rafael Devers, Jarren Duran and Connor Wong have provided sparks at the plate and made plays in every aspect of the game so far this season. Here’s a snapshot of the production from this Red Sox trio:

–– Rafael Devers (3B): .285/.368/.559, 16 HR, 42 RBI, .927 OPS, 154 OPS+, 35 XBH, 2.2 WAR

— Connor Wong (C): .330/.390/.480, 7 HR, 29 RBI, .870 OPS, 141 OPS+, 15 XBH, 2.0 WAR

–– Jarren Duran (OF): .288/.351/.480, 7 HR, 37 RBI, .831 OPS, 129 OPS+, 40 XBH, 20/23 SB, 4.3 WAR

The fan vote for the 2024 MLB All-Star Game moved through the first phase and did not feature any Red Sox players moving on as finalists to start the Midsummer Classic. Boston certainly had deserving players in Devers, Duran and Wong, but several other competitive teams featured finalists.

So, how do the Red Sox candidates stack up against the finalists?

Here are the finalists at the positions of potential Boston representatives and how they match up. Let the judgement begin.
