One thing that is certain is that there is a lot more excitement around the Boston Red Sox right now than at any time over the last few years. This isn’t too shocking. Over the last three years, Boston has had 2 last-place finishes in the American League East with identical 78-84 records.

As the Boston Red Sox’s No. 1 prospect, Roman Anthony, continues his ascension through the minor league ranks, his inevitable call-up grows more pertinent for fans. The outfield logjam complicates things for Anthony, but his talents are more and more celebrated by the day.

Red Sox prospect Roman Anthony is clearly the most dominant hitter in Triple-A, but Boston refuses to call him up.
