Kristian Campbell Goes Deep Thursday
Kristian Campbell went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and two additional runs scored on Thursday. Campbell started in left field in this game and has shown his versatility as a defender at Triple-A with multiple starts at different spots on the diamond. The 23-year-old has been surging so far in August, hitting .326/.420/.512 with two homers and two stolen bases. Campbell was demoted to Triple-A Worcester on June 20 after struggling for a prolonged period of time in the majors. He was slashing .223/.319/.345 at the time of his demotion and has been solid in the minors since. The strikeout rate is still higher than you would like to see at 26%, but he owns a .410 OBP and is trending positively. There's a good chance he comes back up to the majors before the season ends.
