Franklin Arias Extends Power Surge, Remains in Play for Late-Season Debut?
Boston Red Sox top infield prospect Franklin Arias continues to showcase elite upside at the Double-A level and remains in play for a late-season MLB debut. Through his first 36 games with Double-A Portland this season, the team's No. 1-ranked prospect per MLB.com has posted a dominant .346/.422/.662 slash line with a dominant 1.084 OPS. During this stretch, the infielder has launched 11 home runs, swiped four bags, while carrying a 19:15 K:BB. Over his last three games, Arias has launched three of these long balls. Given his incredible start to the campaign, the top prospect remains in serious contention not only to reach Triple-A in the coming weeks but also to debut in the big leagues in the second half. If he maintains this pace, he will find himself near the top of most stash lists in the coming months.
