Roman Anthony Dealing With Shoulder Soreness
Boston Red Sox outfield prospect Roman Anthony has reportedly been dealing with soreness in his right shoulder, which has limited Boston's top prospect (MLB No. 2) to designated hitter duties since April 11. Perhaps this has conveniently helped him focus on hitting after starting the year 6-for-34 (.176) through April 10, as the left-handed slugger has gone 14-for-34 (.412) since April 11. With a .286/.419/.543 slash line through the first 19 games, the 20-year-old is on the precipice of making his MLB debut, although the Sox will likely want to make sure he's fully healthy before bringing him up. Right fielder Wilyer Abreu has cooled significantly after his hot start, so the call may come sooner rather than later. As one of the game's top prospects and best hitters in the minors, fantasy managers in need of an offensive boost in the coming weeks should consider stashing Anthony ahead of his call-up, especially in leagues that have an NA roster spot available.
