It's done.
The Red Sox finally decided to help themselves a little by recalling the best hope of major baseball in novel Anthony. Several informants have confirmed the news.
The reason why the recall was made possible, it is because Wilyer Abreu goes on the injured list. The right -wing outflower is a good player, but he is replaced by another good player.
As with Marcelo Mayer last month, it will have taken an injury from a regular – Alex Bregman – to recall Anthony.
Note that today according to the initial alignment, Kristian Campbell was to play in the center and Ceddanne Rafaela, in the right field. Do the Red Sox plan to place Anthony or Duran in the center? And the other in the left?
It can be, yes. But we will see when the new alignment with Anthony will be announced. Because yes, he will play tonight.
This means that the Big-3 (Anthony, Mayer and Campbell) is officially back together. This cannot harm – especially if the Red Sox can count on a campbell which takes over the hair of the beast.
It remains to have them play regularly. But we will see in time.
Even if he has the air of a savior, I am sure that the club management will not ask him to save the Red Sox season. But if he can help while striking well, it will help a lot.
Details to come …
