With a loaded farm system that touts a trio of Top 25 prospects, the Boston Red Sox will be well-represented at the MLB Spring Breakout. Boston will send 20 of its Top 30 prospects at the second annual showcase next week.
That group will include Boston’s Big 3 of Roman Anthony, Kristian Campbell, and Marcello Mayer, who are ranked second, seventh, and 12th on the MLB’s Top 100, respectively.
Anthony is the biggest name among Boston’s participants. The outfielder has vaulted up the Red Sox system over the last two years, and has slashed .308/.500/.385 this spring entering Thursday’s game against the Blue Jays.
Campbell has struggled at the plate so far this spring with just one hit and nine strikeouts in 21 plate appearances heading into Thursday’s action. But the versatile 22-year-old was named the Minor League Player of the Year in 2024 after he slashed .330/.439/.558 with 20 home runs, 32 doubles, 77 RBI, and 94 runs scored over 115 games between High-A and Triple-A.
Mayer’s 2024 was cut short due to injuries, but the 2021 fourth overall pick by Boston has slashed .294/.368/.588 with a home run in his 19 plate appearances so far this spring.
