Davis slugged as many HRs in his first 12 games with SF as he did in 66 previous games with the Mets.
DENVER — Back in December, all J.D. Davis could swing was a broomstick. Eight months later, fully recovered from offseason surgery and elevated into a regular role since coming over from the Mets, he’s traded it in for a boom stick.
Davis believes he played almost the entire 2021 season with a torn ligament in his left middle finger, an ailment that can explain his slow start this season, too. In October, Davis had surgery on the finger, a procedure that came with a 10-12 month timeline for full recovery, his doctor told him. As Davis tells it, the injury robbed him of a healthy 2021. The surgery interrupted an offseason of work. And the recovery prevented him from playing the first half of this season at 100 percent.“He doesn’t get cheated,” Longoria said. “I feel like all the home runs we’ve seen him hit here are on his back leg, swinging as hard as he can and connecting perfectly.”
In the Giants’ platoon-oriented system, Davis is still getting most of his at-bats against left-handers, even though he has about even splits for his career. But he appreciates Kapler’s communication and open-door policy. “It’s unbelievable. Even pregame conversations, will tell you you’re not starting today but there are two or three lefties. There’s a scenario where you could come in in the fifth inning, or it could be a late pinch-hit in the eighth or ninth. That helps me, not only giving me assurance on the bench, but that I know I need to be ready by the fifth inning.
