A fond farewell to Chris Davis. A 6th round pick in the 2011 draft, Davis served the club well in seven seasons. He leaves as the top all time Fremont in multiple categories; HR (113), RBI (294), Runs (248), Walks (189), Slugging % (.496), XBH (188), Strikeouts (636). In 2013, Davis was league MVP, an All-Star, won the Gold Glove, the Silver Slugger, and led the league in HR (25). Another solid year in 2015 brought an MVP Runner-Up, All-Star recognition, the Silver Slugger award and the all-time league record for strikeouts with 127. Unfortunately, had the lowest batting average of all time for the upcoming 2018 season. This could not be excused, and Davis was freed to seek other opportunities. The ‘Monts are in much better shape than Davis’ real world employer, the Baltimore Orioles, who have him under contract for four more years at $93 million.

Danny Valencia also ends his Fremont career. Serving five seasons in two different stints. “Danny V” leaves third on the all time ‘Mont list with 119 RBI, fifth in hits (243), doubles (47), runs scored (123), games (304) and at bats (924).
