Bogaerts went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run and a stolen base in Friday's 8-0 win against Colorado.
Bogaerts scored the game's first run in the fifth inning when he began the frame with a single, stole second base and came around to score on a Jose Iglesias base knock. After batting just .264 (his lowest mark since 2014) during the regular season last year, Bogaerts has gotten off to a strong start in 2025, slashing .306/.397/.388 through 58 plate appearances. He doesn't have a home run yet, but Bogaerts has contributed four doubles and four steals while walking at a 12.5 percent clip.

Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Double, stolen base in win
Rotowire
Bogaerts went 1-for-3 with an RBI double and a run scored in Sunday's 5-0 victory over Atlanta.
Bogaerts extended San Diego's lead to 2-0 with his two-out double off AJ Smith-Shawver in the third inning. He'd later lead off the eighth with a walk before swiping second and scoring on a Brandon Lockridge double. It's been a solid start to the year for the 32-year-old Bogaerts -- he's now 3-for-11 with two doubles and two stolen bases through four games after slashing .264/.307/.381 with 11 home runs and 13 steals across 463 plate appearances in 2024.
Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Expected to play shortstop in 2025
Rotowire
Bogaerts will be the Padres' starting shortstop during the upcoming season, Dennis Lin of The Athletic reports.
San Diego shifted Bogaerts to second base ahead of the 2024 campaign, and he ended up making 85 starts there. However, the veteran infielder did start 16 times at shortstop, with all of those appearances coming at the end of the season after Ha-Seong Kim landed on the injured list due to a shoulder injury. Kim is now in Tampa Bay, which made Bogaerts' return to shortstop an expected scenario. For fantasy purposes, it's important to note that Bogaerts made 20 appearances at the position in total during the 2024 regular season, so he should have dual-position eligibility from the beginning of the season in most formats.
