Craig Breslow Speaks On Top Prospect Roman Anthony's Long Awaited Call-Up
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The Boston Red Sox are stuck in Groundhog Day. After a promising offseason, and a slew of postseason predictions, the Red Sox are three games under .500 through 57 games. They have been a .500 team for most of this decade aside from one trip to the ALCS in 2021. In fact, since winning the World Series in 2018 with a team that racked up the most wins in franchise history, the Red Sox have a record of 464-463. They are stuck in purgatory. However, among Boston's myriad of top prospects, one sits above the rest as the appointed savior of the franchise to lift the team from mediocrity and back into contention.

MONTERREY, MEXICO - MARCH 24: Roman Anthony #48 of the Boston Red Sox looks on during batting practice before a game against the Monterrey Sultanes on March 24, 2025 at Estadio Mobil Super in Monterrey, Mexico. More Maddie Malhotra/BostonRoman Anthony has sat atop Baseball America's list of MLB prospects all season. He is the third and final piece of Boston's dubbed "Big Three" prospects alongside Kristian Campbell and Marcelo Mayer. As of Wednesday, he is the only one of those three remaining in the minor leagues. So when is the "Chosen One" to arrive? "Those are a few development opportunities that we want to make sure we lock in," Red Sox Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow told Alex Speier of the Boston Globe. "Those are things the minor league schedule and training environment afford. Obviously, we have to balance that with our major league needs. That's a conversation that we're having every single day." The Red Sox have lost 10 of their last 15 games, scoring just 5 runs in their last 37 innings of baseball. "It kind of sounds a bit like we're overly scrutinizing the performance, but he has really high demands of himself," Breslow went on to say. "We just want to make sure that while he's in the minor leagues and working through these things, we're giving him the chance to do so." Roman Anthony is slashing .320/.452/.529 with a .981 OPS, eight homers, and 23 RBI in 48 games with AAA Worcester. More MLB: Red Sox All-Star Pitcher Speaks Up On Historically Disastrous Season

Fenway Park opened in 1912.
