A developing core has emerged in the Boston farm system, despite the Red Sox’s recent struggles in the American League East.
The Red Sox, who are currently led by outfielder Roman Anthony, catcher Kyle Teel, and shortstop Marcelo Mayer, have a lot of impact players who have the potential to be major league stars.
Boston’s farm system has improved dramatically over the past four years, going from being among the poorest in the league to among the best. The Red Sox prioritized keeping these prospects in the organization when building their rosters for each season.
During Red Sox Winter Weekend at the MassMutual Center on Friday, Boston president Sam Kennedy told reporters, “We’ve been ferociously protecting prospects in our minor league system for a long time.” “Returning to 2020. I believe that the time has come to witness the effects of holding onto young, gifted players.
Story continues beneath the pop-up.
Just before the next wave of players enters the major leagues, ownership wants to set the stage for a realistic chance to win in 2024 as the prospects get closer to Fenway Park.
Kennedy stated, “We hope to be competitive in 2024.” That is always the intention. At this point, I don’t think it would be prudent to provide a schedule for anything. Right now, we have to put in the effort and let our deeds speak louder than our words.
