After a sensational rookie season, in which he finished second in NL Rookie of the Year voting, Alec Bohm faltered in 2021. The lowest of lows saw Bohm demoted to AAA in late August. Following up a rollercoaster ride that was his first two seasons, expectations were relatively low for the Nebraska native.
To start the 2022 season, Bohm, Didi Gregorius, and Bryson Stott rotated around as Joe Girardi attempted to get all three players regular reps.
Although he was demoted to the minors the previous season, Alec Bohm hit rock bottom on April 11th, 2022. After his third throwing error in as many innings, Bohm was caught on camera saying the now infamous phrase; “I [expletive] hate this place”.
