Anthony, regarded as Major League Baseball’s No. 1 prospect, will start in right field and bat fifth for the Red Sox on Monday. The left-handed hitter takes the spot that belonged to Wilyer Abreu, who was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left oblique strain.
Anthony, the team’s second-round pick in the 2022 MLB Draft, forged a .288/.423/.491 slash line in 58 games for Worcester this season. He posted 10 homers and 29 RBIs in 265 plate appearances — highlighted by a grand slam on Saturday that flew well over the right-center wall and was estimated at 497 feet.
“We’re trying to win ballgames,” said Red Sox manager Alex Cora. “The kid has done an amazing job throughout (prospect development) getting ready for this moment. We’re excited. It’s a big day for the organization … we’ll use him the right way and we’ll help him with the adjustments that comes with being a big-leaguer.”
The Red Sox (32-35) now have elevated all three of their elite hitting prospects to the bigs. Second baseman/outfielder Kristian Campbell broke spring training with Boston and, after a red-hot start, has settled in with a .233 average, six homers and 20 RBIs in 58 games.
Shortstop Marcelo Mayer was called up two weeks ago when third basemen Alex Bregman went on the injured list with a quadriceps issue. Installed at third base where he had little experience, Mayer has posted a .222/.282/.361 slash line with one homer and two errors in 12 games.
Abreu ranks second on the Red Sox with 13 homers, complementing a .245 batting average with 32 RBIs.

Nicola confirma negociação entre Abel Ferreira e Palmeiras, mas afirma: “não assinou ainda esperando clubes da Europa”
Jorge Nicola no programa "Os donos da bola". (Foto: Youtube/@OsDonosDaBola) O Palmeiras segue negociando com Abel Ferreira por renovação contratual, para estender o período do treinador no clube. No entanto, o jornalista Jorge Nicola trouxe informações quentes sobre as conversas entre o clube e o profissional. Para “Os donos da bola”, o comentarista disse que o português tem uma proposta do Verdão, mas “não assinou ainda porque espera clubes da Europa”. Bicampeão da Libertadores e do Brasileirão pelo Palmeiras, Abel Ferreira é um dos maiores ídolos da história do clube. No Verdão desde 2020, o português “tem proposta do clube para renovar até 2027”, segundo Nicola. Craque Neto, apresentador do programa “Os donos da bola”, ainda relembrou: “até o fim do mandato da Leila”.

Will Howard ‘fired up’ to learn from Aaron Rodgers as his backup QB
<!--> Aaron Rodgers' arrival in Pittsburgh will improve the Steelers' chances of winning this season. But, his presence will also boost the future of their quarterback room. Prior to Rodgers officially signing a one-year deal with Pittsburgh on Saturday, the Steelers were set to rely on unproven and inexperienced play-callers such as Mason Rudolph and rookie Will Howard. If they hadn't landed Rodgers, those two might have been using this current minicamp period as a battleground for the starting job. Instead, the veteran Rodgers will offer a source of consistency on the field and take those younger gunslingers under his wing, to potentially leave the franchise in a better place than when he got there.Howard, especially, has potential. He led Ohio State to a College Football Playoff National Championship victory in 2025 before Pittsburgh selected him in the sixth round of […]
