FanPost Friday - April Surprises?

It’s been a draining couple of weeks to be a Sox fan, I’m not going to lie. So, rather than be super serious, and ask you a deep question with tons of thought required, I want to permit you all to relax and turn your brains off, and remember the best things from the past month (or allow you to remember the worst things, if you so choose. I don’t tell you how to live your life).

So this weekend, I ask you, my fair friends:

What player or players was/were the biggest surprise(s) of the month of April? This can be positive or negative, but let’s try being positive!

You can choose any criteria whatsoever, and it can be for a completely irrational reason if you want. You can even write about someone on the Yankees. I would prefer it to be a positive piece about a Red Sox player, but with how things have gone, I think we all deserve a cheat week here, to talk about whatever we want to talk about.

All I ask, is that you choose to talk about something that surprised you, one way or another.

Yeah, it’s a short prompt this week, hope to get some good responses. See you all on Tuesday (the new official day for the Flyby)!
