Marcelo Mayer Has Stomach Bug
16 seconds agoBoston Red Sox shortstop prospect Marcelo Mayer (illness) is battling the stomach bug. His teammate Roman Anthony had it as well. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status but should expect him to be sidelined for a few days. The 22-year-old is considered one of the top prospects in Boston and the entire sport. Last season, Mayer logged 77 games with Double-A. Across this stint, Mayer posted a .307/.370/.480 slash line with 28 doubles and eight home runs. He swiped 13 bags and held a 30:66 BB:K ratio. This was a nice improvement compared to the .189/.254/.355 line he held across his first taste of Double-A during the 2023 season. He was promoted to Triple-A but could not make an appearance due to a back injury. Mayer will likely open the 2025 season at Triple-A and should push for a 2025 MLB debut.
