Boston Interested In Extending Roman Anthony
According to Alex Speier of The Boston Globe, the Boston Red Sox are interested in extending top prospect Roman Anthony. Speir noted that the team has also expressed interest in extending other top prospects in the system, such as Marcelo Mayer and Kristian Campbell. All three of these prospects are expected to be a key part of the future of the franchise. Anthony is currently ranked as the No.3 prospect in all of baseball on MLB Pipeline. Last summer, he opened the campaign by getting his first full look at Double-A and performed very well with a .269/.367/.489 with 20 doubles, 15 home runs, and 16 stolen bases. He then earned a late-season promotion to Triple-A, where he continued to perform at an elite level with a .344/.463/.519 line with 12 doubles and three home runs across 35 games. If the 20-year-old performs well at Triple-A, he could make a case to earn a spot on the Opening Day roster.
